Instructions

Staying true to oneself means being honest about who you are and what you believe in, even when it’s hard. It’s about making choices that reflect your true feelings and values, rather than just going along with what others want or expect.

Directions: Take some time to reflect on what it means to stay true to yourself. Then, complete this discussion task.

Part 1: Initial Discussion Post

Have you ever been in a situation where you had to choose between staying true to yourself and following what others told you to do? How did you handle it?
Is it more important to stay true to yourself or to follow the rules others give you? Explain.

Part 2: Discussion Engagement

Engage in the discussion by responding to at least 1 other classmate. To actively engage in the discussion, you should respond with more than just one word answers like “great” or “I agree.” Instead, respond in a way that really tells your classmates you have “heard” them.
