# Key Behaviors for Teens Working Through Challenges
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Empathy**: Trying to see things from someone else’s viewpoint, even if you initially don’t agree or understand. Imagine why a classmate might act out because they’re having a tough time at home.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Communication**: Sharing your thoughts in a way that’s clear and calm, and really listening when others talk to you. It’s like explaining why you’re upset without yelling or shutting down.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Critical Thinking**: Questioning stuff instead of just taking it at face value, like rumors or things you see on social media. Think about why someone might be spreading false info.
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Resilience**: Getting back up after something knocks you down, whether it’s failing a test or having a disagreement with a friend. It’s about not giving up, even when it’s tempting.
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Self-Discipline**: Working on controlling impulses, like not snapping back when you’re angry or managing the urge to skip homework for gaming. Setting small, daily goals can help.
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Gratitude**: Finding one thing each day that’s good, even on bad days. Could be something small, like a joke that made you laugh or someone holding the door for you.
|
||||
|
||||
7. **Respect for Others**: Treating people kindly, even when you’re in a bad mood or disagree with them. Remember, everyone’s fighting their own battles.
|
||||
|
||||
8. **Integrity**: Doing the right thing, even when no one’s watching or it’s hard. Like admitting to a mistake instead of blaming someone else.
|
||||
|
||||
9. **Lifelong Learning**: Keeping an open mind and being willing to learn new things, which can be a way to find new interests or hobbies that excite you.
|
||||
|
||||
10. **Adaptability**: Rolling with the punches when plans change or things don’t go your way. It’s about finding ways to deal with new situations without getting too stressed.
|
||||
|
||||
11. **Generosity**: Sharing time, attention, or things you no longer need with others. Helping out at home or with friends without being asked can make a big difference.
|
||||
|
||||
12. **Mindfulness**: Taking a moment to breathe and focus when you’re feeling overwhelmed or angry. It can help you respond to situations more calmly.
|
||||
|
||||
13. **Problem-Solving**: Tackling issues head-on, whether it’s figuring out how to make up with a friend or how to improve your grades. Breaking the problem down into smaller steps can help.
|
||||
|
||||
14. **Collaboration**: Working together with others towards a common goal, like a group project. It means listening to others’ ideas and contributing your own.
|
||||
|
||||
15. **Responsibility**: Accepting the outcomes of your actions, like the consequences of breaking rules, and learning from them instead of repeating the same mistakes.
|
||||
|
||||
These behaviors are especially helpful if you’re working through challenges. Developing these skills can make a big difference in how you handle tough situations and interact with others around you.
