CHARACTER STRENGTH OF KINDNESS! Being kind is about doing kindness! Not just "good intentions" or theories. It takes just some daily, micro things so as to express it. And if it doesn't work? You try again. It's so simple! Video by The DAILY Blurb #KindnessMatters #Kindness

When the kids know what to do, feel the support of the schools and teachers near them, have a meaningful task, and enjoy it, they will transform into developers of their own agency. #positiveeducation #positiveeducationalframeworks #CraftingCharacters #charactercrafting #developingagency

When the day is cloudy or rainy, or if you have the blues, always opt for the character strength of humor. It may not take away the pain, but it can become a momentary, good painkiller that can help you build up your permanent optimism to adversity.

As long as it sounds like "english," everyone thinks it's good. "Xenomania" was and is very trendy in many countries! Let Andreano's experiment be a beginning for self-reflection for your own country. Comments more than welcome.

Critical thinking is not only about sophisticated practices, it's about real life. Train students to the skill of assessing and evaluating before the task. Do the hard things first and have a relaxing and successful finale! Positive Education can help! #CraftingCharacters #positiveeducation

Many blame "young generations" for lacking love of learning & creativity, but these stem from curiosity. Educators, how often do your lessons spark curiosity? Break the routine, get outside the classroom, and empower students' creativity. How inspiring is your lesson? #positivEd

Daniel Wegner found we have a 70% chance of small talk with strangers. Barbara Fredrickson highlights daily connections matter. Many hesitate, fearing intrusiveness, but that's a myth! The Irish in the video prove people love to connect. Small talk can create wonderful moments!
