Initiative


Initiative

Part 1, Theory (200 credits)
Initiative is; recognizing and doing what needs to be done before I am asked to do it;.
Initiative has to be balanced with patience and dependability. You cannot shirk your
responsibilities in one area to show initiative in a different area. A person who shows
initiative will not only demonstrate to those around them that they care for them, they will
also cultivate a life of motivation. They will show that they are willing to step out and do
what is right without having to be constantly reminded and prodded.
I Will:
1. Do what is right before being told.
2. Not put off until later what I can do now.
3. Do my part for the team.
4. Be a part of the solution rather than the problem.
5. Look for ways to help others.
Discussion Starters:
 Why do you think initiative is an important character quality to develop?
 When has someone shown initiative to help you? How did that make you feel?
 What are a few ways that you could show initiative today?
 Who in your life, or in history, do you think is an example of being an instigator of
good?
