In this time of upheaval, fear and change, staying resilient is crucial.
We have been as affected as everyone with Covid-19, the lock downs and caring for the health and well-being of family, friends and all those who work with and for us.
Having the ability to withstand adversity and bounce back from difficult life events builds resilience. Having the ability to withstand adversity and bounce back from difficult life events builds resilience. Everyone has unique strengths. These are positive parts of our individual identity and reflected in our thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Many children and young people facing learning, social and emotional challenges often focus on their difficulties instead of their strengths. While constructive criticism and realistic feedback are important, returning the focus to strengths can support stamina and confidence. Reminding ourselves of what we do well is important.
Being kind and considerate of others is also very important. But being kind is not a replacement for avoiding difficult conversations or standing up for what's important. It is important to remain honest and clear about what's right even when it is a difficult conversation to have.

In the mist of all the confusion and strange times, we never lose sight of what is important and what can be achieved when you dream big and fear less.
