In this episode, Scott discusses the “use of difficulty” in our lives and the value of resilience.    Quotes:  Alfred Hitchcock: “I’m full of fears and I do my best to avoid difficulties and any kind of complications. I like everything around me to be clear as crystal and completely calm.” Saint Francis de Sales: “When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time.”   <a href= "https://173795.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/173795/Videos/Michael%20Cain%20Use%20the%20Difficulty.mp4?utm_medium=email&_hsmi=253012635&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_-bKAN2SuTIaR_uFGDTN433kjhOXy8I-AazKltdAUbrkld2kpzIww5aULdtpA8DZrDejkbmAFIAS2RZK40z3ip-NlAEpH4j69YEUIbFZP8WjzKZa0&utm_content=253012635&utm_source=hs_email" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Michael Cain Interview: Use the Difficulty</a>   Coaching Question: Did I do my best to use the difficulty today?   Educators Fellowship is a non-profit organization that encourages educators in their calling and in their faith. <a href= "http://www.educatorsamonguspodcast.com">www.Educatorsamonguspodcast.com</a> <a href= "http://www.educatorsamongus.com">www.educatorsamongus.com</a> <a href= "https://www.edfellowship.org/">https://www.edfellowship.org/</a>   Sign up for weekly encouragement messages <a href= "https://www.edfellowship.org/home-1">here</a>   Buy the book, Love’em and Lead’em, <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2TSN3Z5/ref=cm_sw_r_api_i_0CCPAWD6EHNHHJM7V9D1_0?__hstc=67846606.15a978c0a602cb645a744352c793cb34.1663423843231.1681129795776.1681246873869.57&__hssc=67846606.1.1681246873869&__hsfp=3000179024&hsCtaTracking=5359b695-8624-4a9a-aed3-d55946349257%257C615acece-58b8-4703-a508-7ba4f9ce7e91"> here</a>   <a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottebarron/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottebarron/</a> <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/SchoolGrowth/">https://www.facebook.com/SchoolGrowth/</a> <a href= "https://twitter.com/schoolgrowth">https://twitter.com/schoolgrowth</a> <a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/company/school-growth">https://www.linkedin.com/company/school-growth</a>
