Reflective Questions (have your response ready by Friday and turn it in on Monday)

1. An important lesson to learn is that life is not fair. It might well be the case when you are in graduate school (or later in your career) that try as you might things are not working out like they should if life were fair. For example, you might be working twice as hard as one of your peers and yet not having the same level of success. Or, you might be treated unfairly by people with more power than you currently have.

a) Think how you have handled similar situations in the past.

b) Think about your character strengths that will help you in situations like this.

c) Think about areas where you can improve your skills at handling such situations.
