Some of them had difficult home lives or came from unstructured homes, so a very structured environment at school could be difficult. A lot of the behaviors we saw at our school wore me down over time.

My day-to-day was unhealthy. I was experiencing burnout and stress, and my body was telling me in no uncertain terms,"You can't keep doing this." I was in a state of fight or flight. We didn't have much of a break during the day. Lunch was 30 minutes, but it really came out to 20 because it took five minutes to walk the kids to lunch and five minutes back. And my prep time was spent doing the online lessons.
So I looked at my new job in the same way, as in: I have a goal to hit, I have tasks that get me closer to that goal, and I monitor my progress along the way.
