I pick myself up by by saying positive things about myself like i am powerful and more.I dust myself off by saying “no sweat zone” I think that I am a really powerful girl.Some tings that i find to help me is writing my feelings down i also think about ever thing that is awesome/great about me.
What I find when I’m facing a challenge is praying to God. Just knowing that he listening to my problems and giving me some comfort is enough to clear my head to face my challenges
When facing a challenge I like to listen to music and draw, I can relax and let my mind wander. Dusting off is when my best friend comes in. If I am having a hard day, I long call with my friends always gets me in a good mood. All around staying positive and facing my challenges helps me get back on track.
When at a stopping point I pick myself up and dust myself off by, focusing on how I can make up for my previous mistakes, praying to God for guidance and strength, and knowing that my parents will be proud of me no matter what. Things that help when facing a challenge are, having a great time with my close friends, love and support from my family, and encouraging, thoughtful words that remind me to keep pushing through.
I find, when I face a challenge, I enjoy talking to my older brother because I know he’ll be there for me no matter what. Also,I love reflecting on my day to perceive on what I could have done better. In addition, I appreciate talking to my PTT family because it allows me to grasp how others may have overcome and faced similar problems. For example, when a friend and I are in conflict, I rely on talking to another close friend to maybe give me advice on what they would do if they were in the same position. On the other hand, when I’m having a bad day, and I need to pick myself up and dust whatever happened off, I strive to do things that make me happy. For instance, watching or playing basketball, cleaning, hanging with friends, and sneaker shopping enable me to get my thoughts off of the bad and focus on the good.
