#NSCW2020: Wellness Room and Wellness Wednesday


This week, we are celebrating National School Counseling Week. 

Did you know that your attitude can help you take on the challenges and obstacles you face in your daily life? We all know people who are grumpy. 

Or negative. Or ungrateful. They find it easier to complain about their obstacles than to work through them. 

But as Michael Jordan once said, “Obstacles don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it or work around it.” 

Babe Ruth, one of the greatest baseball players ever, had a similar attitude. “Every strike,” he said, “brings me closer to the next home run.” And he hit 714 home runs, a record that stood for almost 40 years. 

Take a moment to think about your attitude. Do you approach things positively or negatively? Do you reach out to others for support? 

Reach out to me. Feel free to stop by my office anytime.
