Introduction

We’re going to continue conditioning your thinking by helping you choose wise actions that will help you get the results you want. Last time we met we talked about two things.

• It all starts here. This is our mantra, and it means we take responsibility and be accountable for our actions (or inactions).

• Situation, Action, Results

How does thinking through our actions help us be accountable for our actions? How is dependability similar to accountability?

Critical Thinking

Consider the following situation on your own: One of your friends seems depressed. You notice they aren’t a school often. When you ask them if they are ok, they say everything is fine.

What do you do? Try to think of a few different things you could do (positive, negative, and neutral). What might the results of your actions be?

Collaboration

For a small group, each student presents their ideas to the whole class. Provide opportunity for positive feedback from peers or support if they are struggling to think of ideas.

For a larger group, divide students into small groups and have students present their ideas to the small group. Provide opportunity for positive feedback from peers or support if they are struggling to think of ideas.
