Give yourself a "hall-pass" to self kindness. This made me laugh, especially as a teacher, and is something I need to strive for more often. At our elementary school, some students put up wonderful little inspiration notes on index cards (not necessarily correct spelling or beautifully written). They're taped up in random places and continually make me smile. Maybe I should repeat this at home.

I am so glad it made you laugh:) I also love the idea of inspiration notes- I do that as well as a reminder for myself everyday- and mine are not beautifully written either. Mine are taped up in my bathroom and kitchen as gentle reminders. What a wonderful gift you are giving to your students.
