Ms. Lee,
Your post, “The Power of Positive Thinking” really got me thinking. Being more positive than negative is something many people, including me, struggle with. As a student, I have witnessed the power of being positive for me personally, or through a teacher or a coach. A time where positive thinking pulled through for me was when I got injured in seventh grade playing basketball. It was a severe sprain in my shooting arm and I was discouraged that I wouldn’t be able to contribute to the team. I thought to myself ways that I could contribute. I came up with being able to contribute through a coaching standpoint, showing tips and suggestions to my teammates. As a student, I know that a teacher that tends to be more positive is more liked and catches the focus of the students. As a whole, I think the power of positivity can greatly affect the well-being of not only you, but on others as well.
