  1. Hi everyone, this is Hannah Carlisle and this is my
  2. now plan um the first thing I will start with,
  3. my milestone, so my two significant milestones are the first
  4. one is meeting my best friend Jenna, we met me
  5. about seven playing soccer and she has just been like
  6. a sister, her family and my family have become best
  7. friends and so she is just kind of grown up
  8. alongside of me and challenged me in a lot of
  9. ways and so that is my first milestone and then
  10. my second milestone is studying abroad in South Africa.
  11. When I was an undergrad at E P.
  12. U, I was able to go to the Pietermaritzburg South
  13. Africa and stay for three months and that just really
  14. changed my outlook on the world and what I want
  15. to do as far as teaching.
  16. Um I learned that teaching is a ministry and I
  17. also learned that I have a heart for maybe being
  18. a missionary And Teaching Abroad one Day, so that has
  19. been a really big change in my life And those
  20. are my two significant milestones.
  21. So my first redirect number one, um that leads you
  22. back to the scripture, John 13 which says through him,
  23. all things were made without him, nothing was made.
  24. That has been made John 1 3.
  25. And so that scripture, um, I'm reminded of when I
  26. watch Sunset.
  27. So my resource for this one is watching Sunsets.
  28. Um, and yeah, that just brings you back to the
  29. fact that the Lord has made everything and how can
  30. we not look at a sunset and see the Lord's
  31. work in that.
  32. And it redirects me back to having a bigger perspective.
  33. And so whenever I am feeling really overwhelmed or stressed
  34. out watching the sunset just helps me to remember that.
  35. My problems are small in comparison to how big the
  36. Lord is.
  37. And so it just gives me that bigger perspective on
  38. my life.
  39. And then my second resource Guys back to the scripture
  40. that says rejoice in the Lord Always and again I
  41. say rejoice which is Philippians 44.
  42. And talking with my mom got me back to that
  43. scripture. Um here's a picture of us on my graduation
  44. day and then every drives me back to joy.
  45. And so just the season of being able to be
  46. back at home, being with my mom.
  47. Um and my dad at home has just been awesome
  48. and just whenever I'm feeling stressed or overwhelmed, it's just
  49. so good to talk with her and just stress.
  50. Um and yeah, having conversations with her truly being my
  51. best friend just really brings you back to joy.
  52. That's a big blessing in my life right now and
  53. then my now plan I'm here in my steps.
  54. So I find myself a lot of times drifting and
  55. my thoughts towards the future and just really being future
  56. minded, especially these days in the period of the in
  57. between subbing but not quite credential yet.
  58. I'm still in school.
  59. So mine first starts with me capturing my thoughts so
  60. I find myself thinking about the future I freeze.
  61. So that's why I wanted my now plan to start.
  62. And then the second thing I'll do is let those
  63. thoughts drift away.
  64. That's something that the third graders that I said before
  65. learning about with mindfulness and so I kind of adopted
  66. that into my plan because I've seen them go through
  67. it and been teaching that with them.
  68. Um and so I want to include that in my
  69. own plan.
  70. And then the third thing is just to refocus on
  71. the moment currently happening.
  72. So I just got myself back to but now and
  73. the present and then remind myself at this moment is
  74. fleeting, so I need to enjoy it and that I
  75. should want to enjoy it because it is here and
  76. now and then um I thought would be really cool
  77. to start journaling about my favorite, mundane moments each week
  78. and just reminding myself that even the little things can
  79. bring joy and are really incredible.
  80. Um and so I would just love to write those
  81. down each week and just keep a journal of those
  82. that I can go back to and remind myself when
  83. I started thinking about the future and how awesome it
  84. will be.
  85. I can go back and remind myself that that every
  86. day is awesome as well.
  87. And then the last thing would be just to pray
  88. and thank the Lord for my current breath and ask
  89. that he continued to guide my steps.
  90. So just reminding myself that the Lord has my plans
  91. in control and he knows what's going to happen and
  92. I don't.
  93. Um And so this is my now plan currently as
  94. my life changes, I might need to adjust this a
  95. little bit um And maybe it won't so much be
  96. thoughts but be the next job or the next promotion
  97. and things like that.
  98. And so I just remind myself that I can alter
  99. this a little bit.
  100. Um And I could alter it by adding in maybe
  101. some of my resources, my redirect sprinkled throughout.
  102. Um That's the way that I could alter this plan
  103. as I progress and see if it's working for me
  104. after a couple months.
  105. Um And once I'm done with school I'll take a
  106. relook at it and see if I can adjust it
  107. in any way to continue to impact me.
  108. Because I think that this plan will really help me
  109. to stay in the moment right now.
  110. Um And so I want to make sure that I'm
  111. continually changing it to continue to be in the moment.
  112. Always. Mm And then I have a thing called now.
  113. What? So these are my reflections.
  114. So as far as my personal faith, um this has
  115. really impacted me in the fact that I need to
  116. be patient.
  117. And so I think I'm learning right now about patients
  118. and what that looks like and how I can learn
  119. that quality from the Lord.
  120. And so really patients has been a recurring theme in
  121. my life during this credential program as I'm continuing wanting
  122. to look to the future, but needing to be patient
  123. and needing to be just soaking in the moment now.
  124. Um And then the impact on my teaching, I think
  125. I'm learning that um even though I'm not fully credentialed
  126. yet, I am able to make an impact on the
  127. student's lives in the stabbing that I'm able to do
  128. and on the observation hours and the clinical practice that
  129. I'll get to do just having that outlook of I'm
  130. still changing lives and that's why I wanted to go
  131. to this profession in the first place, even though I'm
  132. not getting paid for yet or I don't have my
  133. credential yet, I can still impact these students and then
  134. also seeing this as a mission field truly because I
  135. get to administer to not only the kids in subtle
  136. ways, but those around me on the school site, um
  137. administration and fellow teachers and then as far as my
  138. perspective is changing, um I think that I was really
  139. stuck in that future mindset, especially this year.
  140. And so this course has really caused me to slow
  141. down to re look at my life and to really
  142. reflect on those things that bring me back to the
  143. Lord in the day to day moments.
  144. And so I love getting to just write down all
  145. my redirects, and then I found myself doing them more
  146. often now that I've kind of named them and called
  147. them out.
  148. And so my perspective has changed in the fact that
  149. mundane moments in everyday moments leading back to the Lord,
  150. I don't need anything crazy or big to lead me
  151. back to um to God.
  152. And so that is the anti presentation.
  153. Thank you for watching, I hope you enjoyed it.
