Key Point ● How we feel affects our performance positively and negatively.
[instructor-facing]
● Some emotions, like being furious or exhausted, make it
challenging for us to solve problems or complete tasks.
● Other emotions, like being happy, optimistic, or motivated, make
it easier for us to solve problems or complete tasks.
● When we have emotions that interfere with our performance, we
have to recognize them and address them.

PARAGRAPH
Every summer, stunt pilots from around the globe come together to compete in a series
of international aerobatics showdowns. This crazy form of flying shows off the pilots
control of the airplanes with stunts like flips, spirals, stalls, and low-flight maneuvers.
These stunts require a lot of focus — and a lot of fuel.
The pilots need to make sure that their planes are completely filled up with fuel before
they start their competition. A plane could get from Point A to Point B on less than a full
tank, but to guarantee the highest level of performance the tank needs to be full.
The same is true for us as humans! We need to keep an eye on our “fuel tanks” as we
go about our days. Our emotions have a lot of influence on how much energy we have.
Some emotions give us more fuel, while others drain us like a hole in the fuel tank. We
use that fuel to move through each activity in the day, whether it’s just getting dressed in
the morning or acing that science test. It’s important to monitor your fuel tank and fill it
up when it’s running low.

Just like the stunt planes, Misty and Willow have fuel tanks. Willow’s is empty and
Misty’s is full! No wonder their presentations went so differently.
Let’s work backwards through their day to see how they got to this point.

What reaction might Willow have had that drained her fuel tank?
Response A
● She shouted, “Hey, you jerk! Get back here and pick these up!”

● Yes. A
Response B

● She laughed about it and whispered, “He’s so clumsy…”

● Not quite. Laughing when something bad happens can fill our tanks a bit!
Response C
● She shrugged it off like it wasn’t a big deal.

● Not exactly. Taking a breath and choosing to see something as a small issue can
fill our tanks, or at least not use as much energy.
Response D
● She ran down the hall, demanding that Dusty apologize.

● Right. This is using up a lot of fuel for one clumsy guy!
Response E
● She stomped foot and whispered, “Man, I hate that guy!”

● Yes. “ Hate” is a powerfully negative emotion that definitely drains our tanks.
Response F
● She bent down to pick up the books, and was happy to help Misty out.
● Not quite. Focusing on our friends can raise our fuel tanks.

Caption 1
We can’t always choose what happens to us, but we can choose how we respond. We
do this by checking our word choice and reactions, choosing positive paths, and keeping
our responses in line with what’s happening. Let’s help Willow have a better day by
choosing responses that will help fill her fuel tank instead of emptying it.
PARAGRAPH
After Willow got off the bus, she went to her locker with Misty. The locker got stuck, then
flew open when Misty pulled on it, spilling her papers everywhere! Willow reacted to this
by getting angry and punching the locker, which drained her fuel tank.
MULTIPLE CHOICE - SINGLE CORRECT ANSWER
Question
Highlight correct Response in yellow
Which response best matches the situation and will help Willow fill her tank?
Response A
● Listen to Misty’s joke about it and laugh.

● Yes. Laughing with friends is a great way to stay in a positive headspace
Response B
● Take the fallen papers and throw them gleefully into the air.
● Not exactly. This is a positive response, but it doesn’t really line up with the
situation. It may end up exhausting Willow’s positive energy, and making a bigger
mess!
Response C
● Do a crazy dance around the hall to celebrate the locker opening.

● Not quite. This is a positive response, but it doesn’t really match the situation. It
sounds exhausting!
PARAGRAPH
Willow and Misty were chatting in the hall, when Dusty bumped into them and knocked
all of Misty’s books to the floor. Willow responded by getting angry and shouting down
the hall at Dusty.
MULTIPLE CHOICE - SINGLE CORRECT ANSWER
Question
Highlight correct Response in yellow
Which response best matches the situation and will help Willow fill her tank?
Response A
● Laugh hysterically at Misty for dropping her books.

● Not quite. This may not be the best option to keep a positive attitude. It might not
make Misty feel very good, either.
Response B
● Help Misty pick up her books and laugh a little.

● Right. Laughing and helping friends is a great way to stay in a positive headspace
Response C
● Completely ignore that anything happened and just walk into class.
● Not exactly. Pretending nothing is happening will take more energy than finding
positive way to react to it.

PARAGRAPH
It takes a lot of work and awareness to manage our emotions. But to perform at our very
best every day, we need to monitor our emotional fuel tanks and make sure they are
filled up. There are many ways that we can do this, including:
UNORDERED LIST
● Be aware of the words we give to our emotions.

● Choose a positive emotion whenever possible.
● Choose an emotion level that matches the situation.
● Remove ourselves from situations that are draining our fuel tanks.
