LIVING IT, MODELING IT, EXPECTING IT
Respect
Everyone wants and needs respect. Learning respect for self and for others – including those in authority – creates positive relationships. When others [family, partners and community] are treated with respect, they will respond in a positive manner. Positive relationships help create self-respect.
Responsibility
Taking ownership and not blaming others for our attitudes and behavior is being responsible. Responsibility is also striving to be active, productive and engaged which brings the trust of others. The trust of others brings a sense of belonging and builds stronger relationships.
Resourcefulness
Having the ability to find quick and clever ways to overcome difficulties is being resourceful. Some answers and resources come from within ourselves and some come from outside sources. When we learn the skills to practice resourcefulness, we can make better choices – choices that promote self-esteem.
Resiliency
To be resilient is to be able to withstand adversity and recover quickly from difficult conditions. When we learn to be more resilient, we can bounce back from adversity [which everyone has] and be happier in life.
Recovery
Recovery is regaining what was lost – respect, responsibility, resourcefulness and resiliency. With support, recovery can be achieved by learning new skills. Recovery brings emotional stability and the ability to build relationships that make us happy.
