You are NOT doing it right if you engage in any of the following "think win-LOSE" behaviors:
- Using others emotionally or physically for your own selfish purposes
- Trying to get ahead at the expense of another
- Spreading rumors about someone else
- Insisting on getting your way without concerning yourself with the feelings of others
- Becoming jealous and envious when something good happens to someone close to you
Choose one of the below steps to becoming more of a WIN-WIN type of person and explain why you chose that step:
- Pinpoint an area of your life where you most struggle with comparisons. Perhaps it's with clothes, physical features, friends, or talents. Work to let it go. Realize we all have strengths. Appreciate and respect those strengths in others without comparing or competing!
- If you play sports, show sportsmanship. Compliment someone from the opposing team and mean it.
- Form a study group ahead of a challenging test and work together to bring everyone's grade up.
- The next time someone close to you succeeds, be genuinely happy for them instead of feeling jealous or threatened.
- Think of a person you think is a model of WIN-WIN. What is it about this person that you admire?
