SHINING MOMENT AHA MOMENT
IF YOU HAVE DECIDED TO WORK WITH A SHINING MOMENT:

Think of a time when your problem was not getting the better of you

(for example, "USUALLY me and my brother argue, my mom tells me off because I am bigger than my brother, she picks him up.  I feel jealous, I hit him and I get into trouble")

different result/shining moment -
"one time, me and my brother argued, I felt jealous, I pretended he was my own baby and I told him in a kind voice, "No, don't do that".  He listened and we were both happy.  My mom also."

 if you decided to work with an aha moment, it might go something like this:

I was feeling so sad and hopeless; feeling township life was just to terrible, I was very sorry for myself, then i noticed these two little frogs in the gutter.  i thought, "gee those are beautiful", and i felt that this place is not all bad.  it actually has some things going for it
 

"imagine someone took al photo of you at this shining or aha moment.  also draw a clock showing the exact time and a calendar showing the exact date.  look at the examples in other people's hero books to see how to do this."
