Resilience & Difficulties
Everyone has some things they find harder.
It may be that the things you find hard are skills we use a
lot in school, work and in life (like the Control Centre
Skills). This means you spend more of your time noticing
your difficulties than other people.
If someone finds art really difficult, they may only notice
once a week in an art lesson. If a person finds reading
hard, they notice in almost every lesson. That is tough!
▪ Ask someone you trust to explore the things you find
difficult (use our Strengths & Difficulties cards to help).
▪ Work out ways to support your difficulties so they aren’t
such a problem for you (the information on the Control
Centre Skills may help you think of some strategies).
