CONGRATULATIONS KYLE!!!        

Back to School…

YOU WILL SUCCEED!

There are positive and negative ways that we can deal with stress. Stress can come from good events in our lives (starting school, making the soccer team, getting good grades, being able to go to a dance or a party etc…) OR stress can come from negative events in our lives (not fitting in with the “in crowd”, being sick, having to cook for the family, getting bad grades etc..)

The question I have for you is how do you personally cope with stress and how does that affect your performance in your life at school, home, and with others?

Some POSITIVE ways to cope with stress are: taking walks, writing in a journal, talking to others etc…

Some NEGATIVE ways to cope with stress that were mentioned: hitting things, hurting others and/or hurting yourself, swearing, yelling etc… 

When Anger/ Stress Triggers Sneak up on you……………      and think……… 

You need to take time to Recognize what is actually causing you to chose to be angry…              

   It is good to think of other options rather than just exploding with anger.

Remove the bad thoughts from your mind and replace them with positive, constructive thoughts.  

Most of all………………………………               

As all of you know, Mrs. Hauger LOVES quotes and words. Some of my absolute favorite quotes are:

You will succeed!

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.

You will be remembered in life for only 2 things- the problems you helped solve and the ones you helped create.

Don’t count the days- make the days count
