DARUMA PRINCIPLE for RESILIENCE & GOAL SETTING

thread
FALL SEVEN TIMES, GET UP E... FALL SEVEN TIMES, GET UP EIGHT
This drawing hangs prominently in our home to remind us daily of rising above difficult situations. Like a punching bag, the bottom is weighted so the doll has no problem uprighting itself when knocked over and indicative of a useful habit - a skill which we can learn and become a master with years of practice and 10,000 repetitions.

There is a second tradition related to Drama Dolls for goal setting. The dolls can be purchased with just the white blank eyes. When I decide to make a goal - best to think of one that takes about a year to accomplish - I put in the left eye. When the goal is accomplished, I put in the right eye.

This is something I want to start with my granddaughters and pass on to future generations.
