Video 3: How to Increase Resiliency in Students (3/4)


Our SCENE today
Our World is Full of:
Consequently, they can tend to Assume:
S – Speed
Slow is bad
C – Convenience
Hard is bad
E – Entertainment
Boring is bad
N – Nurture
(Too safely conscious)
Risk is bad
E – Entitlement
Labor is bad

Because our culture is taking away slow, hard, boring, risk and labor, therefore we need to intentionally build them in our students (build the soft skills).

Six Steps to Engage in the Process:
1. Set micro goals
2. Do something slightly different every six seconds
3. Focus on mini decisions and mini steps
4. Stimulate the "adult world" regularly (talk about how it's different in the real world)
5. Celebrate any and all visible progress (celebrate when hit milestone)
6. Lose the "lottery mindset" and see discipline as a bridge

The Statement that Invites Grit 刚毅,坚韧
"I am giving you this feedback because I have high expectations of you and I know you can reach them"
(The adults lack of belief in our students/young people)
