I’ve written time and again about the power of words. I saw this ditty on FB (where else). It was a bulletin board in an elementary school classroom and is a powerful message.
| Powerless: I don’t understand |
Powerful: What am I missing?
|
| Powerless: I give up | Powerful: I’ll use some of the strategies I’ve learned. |
| Powerless: I made a mistake | Powerful: Mistakes help me improve. |
| Powerless: This is too hard |
Powerful: This may take some time and effort.
|
| Powerless: It’s good enough |
Powerful: Is this really my best work?
|
| Powerless: I’ll never be as smart as her | Powerful: I’m going to figure out what she does and try it. |
| Powerless: I can’t make this any better |
Powerful: I can always improve. I’ll keep trying.
|
| Powerless: I’m not good at this | Powerful: I’m not good at this – I’m on the right track. |
