Don't look for shortcuts, because they'll only hurt you in the long run.

It's important to remember that there are many different types of people, styles of teaching and that we won't agree with all of them.

The only way to being a better teacher is time and dedication.

A new yogi doesn't handstand on their first try, and a new teacher doesn't start out as a headliner. Be patient, and trust it's all going to add up and unfold in due time.

There's no need to be fearful when another person succeeds. In fact, joining forces and supporting fellow teachers (or co-workers) you believe in is one of the most empowering moves you can make.

There will always be people who can do it better than you, but that's a good thing! Start to see competition as inspiration — without envy.

Everyone needs to start somewhere.
