You can’t pleaseeveryone, right?
Gaga routinely takes it a stepfurther and “stirs the pot” withpeople that she isn’t going toplease anyway,keeping her in the news andreinforcing her message.
“Well, that’s your opinionisn’t it? And I’m not aboutto waste my time trying tochange it”- Lady Gaga
Don’t let the haters stop you.
Don’t give it energy.
Practice Positivity.
Trying to be a constantpeople-pleaser can makeyou stressed &professionallydiscouraged.
Education advocacy sometimes stirs the pot. Grab a spoon.thedaringlibrarian.com
Just always keep our best customers, our Little Monsters,our students,the priority.
Lady Gaga has a long list ofsupporters.
Celebrity blogger Perez Hiltonbeing one of the biggest.
Befriending someone likePerez is a perfect ally in herquest for pop worlddomination.
Make an ally of youradministrators.
Try not to say NO to anyreasonable request.
Say, “I can make thathappen – let me get back toyou with the details!”
Don’t forget to treat your Library Assistant well. (If you are lucky enough to have one!)
Spoil the front officesecretaries.
And always,always,get thehead custodianon your side.
