P. 15

An example of keeping it real:




      If I keep to the expectations we all agreed:



      The Positive Impact will be:




      ▪ People will feel safe around me

      ▪ People will enjoy being around me and want to spend time in my company

      ▪ I will feel good about myself as someone who achieves well

      ▪ I will feel good about myself as a friend and a pro-social member of the family / community


      This is likely to help me become a confident, happy and successful person.



      By not keeping to our expectations …




      The Negative Impact will be:


      ▪ Other people won’t be able to get on with things as well as they could
      ▪ I will not get on with things as well as I could


      ▪ Others will not feel so safe and happy around me.
      ▪ Others might not be so keen to spend time with me.



      This may lead to me not feeling so good about myself and not doing so well.
