How Character Strengths have improved our life

Character strenghts have improved our life by avoding us many problems and many awful consequences. They also helped us to realize everything we have with gratitude, optimism had helped us by not quitting in our goals or dreams.

When we didn´t use character strenghts

Natalia: One day in spanish class i was talking a lot with some friends. The teacher had already called my attention twice and I still didn´t shut up so the third time he called my attention I got a mark. In that case i didn´t use self-control and there are the consequences.

Mariangel: The other day I was in Spanish class and I really wanted to pee but the teacher didn´t allow me to go. It was kind of an emergency, and I really needed to go. As a result I left his class and ran immediately went to the restroom, but without his permission. I didn´t used self-control and I received consequences.

Character Strengths in Our Life

Some couple of months ago we went to Intertecs, that is a tournament in which all middle schools of the same system participate. In our last game, we were about to finish and our friend, got injured her ankle. We felt sad for her because is one of the best Volleyball players in our team. So when she got injured we had to continue the game without her, and with all the positive energy to finish the game. In that situation we used Grit.

If you want to be an excellent student you should follow his tips

1.-If you sometimes feel like in any moment you will lose control, analyze the situation and cakm down.
2.-You should be grateful for the education that you are receiving. Not everyone can afford a good education.
3.-If your grades are a little down, don't give up! You can do it! If not you can always ask for help.
4.-If you feel like you don't belong in a group of friends, there will always be someone that can make you feel better. 
5.-And finally, DO ALWAYS make your homework, if not, you might have a little bit of problems at finals. 
We hope this can be useful for all you guys!

Once we have talked to her we realize that she is actually way so grateful and also with a lot of social intelligence because she loves to help her student even though is not about the subject. She is a person with a big heart. And we appreciate that.

She is so kind ! ! !

We think that she has a lot of social intelligence because she is always kind and lovely with everyone and she is the type of people that will always try to help you in any aspect. Once I was having a bad time she came over me and help me with my problems. She is someone that you can definitely trust.

Practicing social intelligence

             
Forrest Gump is  a movie that talks about how can you overcome problems by having always a friend by your side that supports you in every aspect of your life. Jenny is an example of Social Intelligence because she let Forrest Gump sit next to her and that´s why she is humble and kind. As a result she created a great relationship with him.

You should consider thinking like this:

See the good thing people do, no the bad things.
