Promoting engagement is not just a desired
outcome of education - it's essential to the
process itself.
 - Gary Gordon
The biggest obstacle to saying No
successfully is not the other, however

our all-too-human tendency to react - to
act with intense emotion but without clear
purpose.
- William Ury
Consider flexibility.  One can render its

ys (as
inflexibility) but just as easily in a
desirable way (as steadfastness).
-
Christopher Peterson and Martin Seligman
Life's best survivors are better than most
people at quickly turning a disruptive
event or adversity into a desirable
development.  There reaction to almost
anything that happens is "Good! I 'm
glad this happened! Let's play with
this!"
-  Al Siebert, PhD
The acid test of a strength is that you
can do it consistently and nearly

your strongest synaptic connections, we
can now see why it is impossible to build
a strength without an underlying talent.

Marcus Buckingham & Donald O. Clifton

society.
 Robert Wright
