Empathy

Empathy is where you put yourself into someone else shoes and try to understand how they feel. You ask the person if they are feeling okay and if they would like to talk about their problems, this way you can help them feel better. A good way to practice empathy is to treat others the way that you would want to be treated and to set a good example for others.

MOTIVATION

Self Awareness

Motivation is what makes us want to do things.

It is setting goals and recognising when we have achieved them.

Certain things can motivate us and make us want to do something but certain things can de-motivate us and make us not want to do anything.

We need to manage the things that de-motivate us so that we do not get too upset and so that we get things done.

Self awareness is understanding your personality which includes strengths, weakness, thoughts, beliefs and what motivates you. This allows you to better understand other people and how they perceive you. Self awareness can help you better manage your feelings and how you act towards other people.

Managing Feelings

Managing feelings is when you recognise your emotions and try to help to control your emotions. It is when you recognise certain factors and triggers that make you feel certain emotions which can help you to manage these emotions to better help you in daily life.

There are certain techniques that you can use to help control your emotions, for example, if you feel yourself getting angry you could take deep breaths and slowly count to ten to help calm yourself down.
