From www.charthouse.com 1. Choose your attitude! Be upbeat, kind, and happy!! Smile and
tell (yourself and) others to "have a great day." Follow steps 2,
3, and 4 to keep this idea going throughout the day. 2. Be present! Make a point of saying "hello" to
others, and ask them how they're doing. Use respect for others to learn as
much as you can. When others are speaking to you look them in the eye and
listen carefully to fully understand their thoughts and concerns. Ask questions
but be sensitive. Consider the feelings of others when offering suggestions
and ask how you can help. If someone's day is going well, celebrate the news
by cheering for them. Supporting others is both kind and respectful. 3. Play! Take advantage of appropriate play with others. Look
for ways to make work FUN and include all who are around you! 4. Make someone's day! Say or do something nice for someone
else. This can be a win-win situation because doing something nice for
someone else can boost your energy as well as improve our community. Link to Fish! Class
