Just
Look How Far You've Come
If the contest
portion of Mystery Class doesn't result with you finding all ten secret
locations, will you feel disappointed? It's natural if you do. After all,
you've worked really hard all along the way.
But it may
help your outlook if you try having a positive attitude. You've got so
much to be proud of. Just think how far you've come and how much you've
learned in eleven short weeks!

Then,
Try This!
- Can you
think of different times when you felt disappointed or upset about something?
For each one discuss or write about what you did--or could have done--to
feel better. How did a positive attitude or looking at your situation
from a fresh perspective make a difference?
- Ask a
family member or neighbor to tell you about a time when he or she felt
disappointed because something important didn't turn out very well.
How did he or she handle it? Was it all bad? What did they learn from
that disappointment?
- Do you
think people can benefit and learn when things don't turn out well?
How?
- Bicyclist
Lance Armstrong overcame many challenges to win the Tour de France several
times. Can you think of other people who made the best of a challenging
situation? How did their positive attitude make a difference?
