Beyond Their Years
Understand that it’s natural for some parents, especially those who have preschoolers, to think that their children have abilities way beyond their years. ~Rhee Gold
You Are You
Don’t look at other teachers or studio owners and believe that you would be happy if you had what they have. It’s not true! Be happy because you are you. ~Rhee Gold
Your Commitment
No worries, someone may attempt to duplicate your concept, but they can’t duplicate your personality or your commitment. Stay focused on what you must do. ~Rhee Gold
Every Minute
Time is a gift, what we do with it is our choice. Being part of the gossip about the teacher or school up the street isn’t helping us progress. Every minute, hour, or day focused on them is a minute, hour, or day that we are not dedicated to our own success. ~Rhee Gold
Don’t Make Exceptions
When a mom or a student challenges your policies, don’t make exceptions even if it means that you lose the student. You have created a philosophy for how you want to run your school. You set up policies that help you and everyone else live up to the philosophy. Believe in who you are and…
Direct Result
What someone else has or does is a direct result of where their life experience has taken them; you cannot recreate it. Your life experience is unique and all your own, leading YOU to where YOU need to be. Don’t let envy become the roadblock to your success. ~Rhee Gold
If You Hear
If you hear someone speak negatively about their friend or family; think about what they might say about you before you jump on their bandwagon. ~Rhee Gold
Pat Yourself on the Back
Dance teachers . . . know that you followed your dream and that it’s OK to pat yourself on the back! ~Rhee Gold
