How does it feel when you solve your problem by yourself? Things may not always go as
planned，but being resourceful can help you stay calm and work your way out of tricky situations.
Being resourceful means finding smart and creative ways to solve a problem，using whatever
resources you have at the time. 1 They can also be anything else that’s useful，such as
information，advice or your own experience.It also means trusting your instincts，the ability
you’re born with，rather than through training and being confident about your ability to face
challenges.A resourceful person is not the one getting cross or panicking when something goes
wrong.They’re thinking about how to solve the problem.2 When we learn to solve problem for ourselves rather than immediately going to others
for help，it can help to build our confidence，help us feel more independent，and feel better
about making decisions.Being resourceful may not help you avoid problems ， but thinking
creatively about how you can deal with them will make you feel less stressed and more prepared
next time. 3 This can boost self-esteem，that is，how you feel about yourself.
When you’re facing a challenge，try to focus on the actual problem rather than how you feel
about it.Think about where and when it happened and what the causes are.Next，think up as many
solutions to the problem as you can. 4 Finally，review what has and hasn’t worked，so
you’re equipped to deal with a situation next time.
And remember，if you have a tricky problem that you’re unable to solve，then ask a trusted
adult for help. 5
A．You also learn what you’re good at.
B．Here is how you can be more resourceful.
C．These may be practical things like pens and paper.
D．No one is expected to solve all problems by themselves.
E．Resourcefulness is a skill that’s good for you in lots of ways.
F．They can be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.
G．Weigh up what’s good and bad about each one and choose the best.
