Initiative

Initiative is the ability to assess and initiate things independently.

Perseverance and bravery are those

character strengths that make an INITIATIVE possible.

Bravery is the capacity to TAKE ACTION

in spite of significant challenges.

(Create a NEW SLIDE: Bravery is associated with those efforts

that are attempts of DOING GOOD.)

Brave people place the highest importance on a

HIGHER PURPOSE, no matter what the consequences.

Perseverance is the mental strength

to CONTINUE STRIVING for a goal in the face of setbacks.

Perseverance is the character strength that requires

DEDICATION, FOCUS, and PATIENCE.
