ENTRY PLAN
The Professional Learning Teams reality suggests true teamwork comes down to practicing a small set of behavioral principles over a long period of time. Success is not just a matter of mastering subtle, sophisticated theory, but rather embracing common sense with uncommon levels of discipline and persistence. Ironically, your team will succeed because they are exceedingly human. Through acknowledging the imperfections of our own humanity, we will situate the team to overcome natural tendencies that make trust, conflict, commitment, accountability, and a focus on results elusive.

Skill Vs. Talent
The separation between talent and skill is one of the greatest misunderstood concepts for innovators trying to help colleagues excel, who have dreams, who want to do things. Every one of us has talent - naturally. Skill is only honed and developed by hours and hours of ridiculous, sickening work ethic, grinding on our educational craft.
Taking the Red Pill
You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your job the way it was and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you enter learning wonderland, and I will show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. The term red pill references a personal awareness of the reality your life will become better by making other people's lives better.
You have to believe it. There is no reason to have a plan B because it distracts from plan A
