Exercises in hope

Since we set out to enable ourselves and our children to build a psychological capital whose first component is hope

let us place in the crucible of our feelings and our goals a number of exercises " especially for young children "

Training is learning: and hope does not mean that there are no obstacles

Let us begin putting the development of hope into practice:

Hope = willpower and pathways

Dear parent / educator / teacher …together we design a set of exercises that help activate the hope strand as one component of psychological capital … try these exercises with us

Exercise one: the aim of the exercise / developing the ability of the participant " the child / young person / trainee, whatever their age " to set a realistic goal

A clear goal …helps map out and define the clear path to achieving it …a tangible achievement

A purposeful discussion session: each participant states their goal …the discussion is open … why this particular goal, " what is the importance of the goal " …

Let us draw the ladder that leads to the goal … draw the ladder, mark out its five rungs, for example, and put the goal on the top rung …and let each participant write down their goal

The skills acquired here: motivation …motivating the participant by listening to their goal … why this goal???? the map to reaching the goal

Encouraging responses

Updating responses through self-motivation … let us try changing something … put alternative scenarios to the participant …hand the floor over to them and record the change that occurs … a participant's satisfaction with their own goal brings emotional gains that drive them to achieve it
