R FACTOR DISCIPLINE #3: STEP UP
NOVEMBER/DECEMBER FOCUS: #3 STEP UP
FOCUS #3 Step Up
- Respond with discipline. What are you doing to accomplish your goal?
- Emphasis on what we can control.
- Remember life is not lived in a straight line. We need to take action, step up, get involved if you don't like how something is being done.
- Contribute to a solution don't add to a problem.
This month we are focusing on Stepping Up!
Life will challenge you, repeatedly. Circumstances will push you to go beyond your comfort zone, to do better, to go further, to perform at the next level, to step up.
If you want any kind of meaningful achievement, you will have to fight for it. And that's a good thing. The struggle is part of life. It is hard and often painful. It's also necessary, because it's in the struggle that greatness is formed.
Step Up Now
The R Factor happens in the moment. The only time available to you to Step Up and
Respond with discipline is now. You can’t step up in the past: it is over. And you can’t step up in the future: it hasn’t arrived yet. That leaves ... right now.
Dwelling on the past or worrying about the future will only drain you of energy and distract you from focusing on what you can control. So be fully present right here, right now and win the moment.
Step Up Every Day
As you apply The R Factor to your life and work, keep in mind that for every goal you are
pursuing there is a pathway. Stepping Up is not an occasional “heroic response.” It is
focused daily action. Not just once or twice, but over and over, every day. By applying The R Factor consistently over time you can achieve almost anything.
Sometimes it’s a grind. Sometimes there are tedious and uncomfortable things that are
required for success. And that means doing what needs to be done even though you don’t feel like it. It will be uncomfortable, maybe even for long stretches, and it will be tempting to settle for a lesser way that is more convenient and less painful. Don’t compromise. Don’t give in. Step up and embrace the value of daily discipline.
SHERWOOD LIBRARY PROGRAMS FOR OUR STUDENTS
Sherwood branch library storytime is Thursdays at 4:30. Storytime is for children ages 0-6.
Every Monday after school at 3:30 is Teen Monday. A variety of activities are offered to the teens and it's lots of fun.
GIVE KIDS A SMILE DAY

The dental staff will call the parent/guardian with appointment time. The form to be completed and returned to the school office can be found on the Superintendent’s Weekly Update. If you wish to mail the form yourself the address and deadline are listed on the registration form.
