Am I behind or on the right track?

I hope that it's only me when I overthink over my life and wonder if I am on the right track or if I'm super behind and just don't realize it. I look at how many people are studying to become a teacher and just how much experience they have so far. Yet here I am with little to no experience, and I want to gain experience just so I can visualize the many lessons I'm learning in my classes. 

I am in the process of becoming a substitute teacher so I am hoping that it will help me advance in my goals. I guess I'm more of a visual learner so when I am being taught certain lessons it helps me to actually see it firsthand in a school setting. 

Am I behind or on the right track? That's the only question on my mind 24/7 but the question should be "Am I doing, okay?" What I mean by that is, am I doing good in my schoolwork? Am I doing the best I can to excel in my studies and career? The answer to that question is Yes! I mean I'm doing what I can do sometimes I rush to do something and never turns out how I want. Why? Because it wasn't meant to be for me yet but doesn't mean it's not for me at all. Just got to turn that thinking into fuel or motivation. 

Let this be a lesson for those who may seem overwhelmed especially in their first years of college or university. I do believe that these thoughts are just feelings of overwhelming pressure to be ahead of everything, but just got to take it one step at a time. 

It's been a week of feeling super unmotivated so here I am once again staring at my pile of notes to go through and lists of assignments that need to get done. Prayers! I guess one step at a time right.

My Teaching Philosophy

 Teaching and technology can't be done without each other in the classroom. With all the changes happening in the world it's important to stay on top of being educated when it comes to technology. Which means being educated and properly trained in technology access, which is something that I strongly believe in.  As a current substitute teacher, I see how advanced children are with technology and how they tend to learn more from it than being distracted by it. As a future educator, I plan on incorporating technology into my classroom efficiently so every student can benefit from the amount of knowledge that comes from any device.  When I first started studying to be a teacher, I had no idea how to use many technology applications an LMS in the classroom. As my studies advance so does my love for technology, and wanting to become a teacher already just so I can show all the students the wonderful things that can be done online.  In my classroom I will incorporate Goog...
