Perseverance: Thrivers finish what they start and don't need gold stars ; 7. Optimism: Thrivers find the silver lining -- Epilogue. 520 $a Thrivers are different: they flourish in our fast-paced, digital-driven, often uncertain world. Why? Dr. Borba combed scientific studies on resilience, spoke to dozens of researchers/experts in the field and interviewed more than 100 young people from all walks of life, and she found something surprising: the difference between those who struggle and those who succeed comes down not to grades or test scores, but to seven character traits that set Thrivers apart (and set them up for happiness and greater accomplishment later in life). These traitsâconfidence, empathy, self-control, integrity, curiosity, perseverance, and optimismâwill allow kids to roll with the punches and succeed in life. And the even better news: these traits can be taught to children at any age...in fact, parents and educations must do so. In this book, Dr. Borba offers practical, actionable ways to develop these traits in children from preschool through high school, showing how to teach kids how to cope today so they can thrive tomorrow. 541 $d 20221104. 650 7 $a Self-confidence in children. 650 $a Empathy in children. 650 $a Integrity. 650 $a Curiosity in children. 650 $a Perseveration (Psychology.) 650 $a Optimism in children. 650 $a Parenting. 650 $a Effective teaching. 941 $a 1 952 $l BSPB851 $d 20230516010453.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FCF4DF06F3AE11ED84149D5C3CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
