A3 had to write a plan, set aside time during lunch to read, catch up on Twitter, time for a walk in evening with family #TNedchat

In reply to @Gregbagby

dmillbank Oct 17 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A3) Putting down the cellphone and set specific times and limits on checking emails as texts has helped me. #tnedchat

AFMulloy Oct 17 @ 8:24 PM EDT

Hi Elizabeth!!! I hope you are well!! #TnEdChat

In reply to @eliznick

Rdene915 Oct 17 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A3 Although I admit when I walk, I reply to emails, answer Voxes, respond to Ss Questions, or blog :) multi-tasking but moving! #TNedchat

eliznick Oct 17 @ 8:26 PM EDT

A3 Honestly it is harder without kids at home because I can be more obsessed. I read novels #TnEdChat

Gregbagby - Moderator Oct 17 @ 8:27 PM EDT

I fall when I try that. #TnEdChat

In reply to @Rdene915

dmillbank Oct 17 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3) There is a mindfullness component to putting tech aside. The bright idea in the shower or when doing dishes. #TnEdChat

AFMulloy Oct 17 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3- I had to take a year off to figure that out. I still haven’t, but I am better abo reminding myself what’s more important. #TNedchat

eliznick Oct 17 @ 8:29 PM EDT

I need a plan! Will do that so my time is more intentional #TnEdChat

Q4: In a constantly connected world what parameters do you place on contact with Ss, Ts, Ps and how do you communicate those parameters?

TrishKing6 Oct 17 @ 8:36 PM EDT

A6: What’s Balance? ;) I have a hard time saying no. That’s my biggest struggle right there. I’m slowly working on it...#TnEdChat

TrishKing6 Oct 17 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A6. One of my volunteering Ss said it best yesterday- "wow, you could do it all Ms. King, if you only 3 more hours in each day" #tnedchat

Gregbagby - Moderator Oct 17 @ 8:50 PM EDT

Q6: What’s your biggest struggle to balance and how are you addressing it? #TnEdChat

Gregbagby - Moderator Oct 17 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A6) That #FOMO was a big issue, but now I try to set my limits on Chats and saying yes... Teach me how to say no to this. #TnEdChat

dmillbank Oct 17 @ 8:53 PM EDT

A6) When what you do is not a job, a career, but a calling, then there's nothing stopping it. Both a blessing and a curse! #tnedchat

Gregbagby - Moderator Oct 17 @ 8:58 PM EDT
