Resiliency awareness

Resiliency: what does it look like?

CONTROLLING ONE’S OWN BEHAVIOR: Self-adjusting one’s personal performance by planning ahead and evaluating success after completing a task

“My part-time job gives me money for college.”

 

GOOD ATTITUDES AND EMOTIONS: Persevering to success, applying problem solving in tough situations, fostering feelings of stamina and hardiness

“If I try, I will succeed.”

 

POSITIVE SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS: With parents, teachers, relatives, neighbors and peers who mentor a youth, are supportive and show they care

“He listens without judging, helps me, and is fair.”

 

FEELINGS OF COMPETENCE: In academics, athletics, the arts or other areas, based on their past successes and notable achievements

“My study time really paid off during finals.”
