3. ABLE TO HELP SELF AND OTHERS
I am happy and confident and feel connected to people and place and country.
I have a sense of control over my life and I can make choices and decisions.
I have many good relationships with people, a home and I job that I find fulfilling.
I have the strength to deal with the problems or the knowledge of where to go
for help. I can help myself and others, because I have a strong sense of my
rights and my responsibilities. I have courage to make connections within my
community and in the wider world. I trust myself and enough other people to
address personal and public issues.
3.1 What works
Having a job and a home and supportive relationships provides me with security.
I have the time and the resources, because I work and budget carefully and I
plan ahead. I know my rights and responsibilities and I have skills which I
learned on the job or at Tafe or unis. I have a positive outlook on life. I
have a full life and I have discarded negative thinking, time wasting and using
crutches to solve my problems like gambling or other addictions.
