Welcome to the

Counselor Education

Annual Student Meeting

The Four Friends

Lessons from the Four Friends

By working together and using their individual talents, the four friends were able to reach and enjoy the fruit

None of us can do this alone- we all need a good support system both at Stetson and at home

Consider sincerely your responsibility as an individual and as part of this program

What happens when you don’t do your part? When others don’t do their part?

It is my belief that when we value others for their uniqueness and differences, then we enhance the

possibilities for our children and ourselves. To me, that is what community is truly all about—when it is practiced

and realized in our daily lives with those we love and with those we have been taught to fear.

Your Intention Creates Your Reality:

What is your Intention for the

Upcoming Year?

An intention is a guiding principle for how you want to

be, live, and show up in the world

An intention is something you want to align with in your

life-an aim, a purpose, or attitude

Intentions come from your heart

Setting an intention is a way to bring your heart and

mind into alignment.

It is not a “should”
