As most of you know, other animals have a hard time changing their behavior. Some people think the same about other people. They may say “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks” when they are talking about a person trying to change their behavior. But if you have been reading our stories, you know that you can change and that old story about “Old dogs,” is just not true when it is about you.
It all has to do with changing the things you tell yourself. By now most of you readers know that if you change your thinking, you can change how you feel and how you behave. The Little Prince could have done that but he didn’t. Here is your chance to help him change his Stinky Thinking.
1. When told by the doctor, that his diet was not healthy, what better things could he have told himself?
2. What would have been his emotions?
3. What would have been his behaviors because of this Good Thinking?
4. Give an example of when you might change your Stinky Thinking to Good Thinking about not getting something you really want.
