PS 78 Makeover: Be Proactive

Thrive Collective artists painted a series of 15 murals at PS 78 in the Bronx based on the book The 7 Habits of Happy Kids by Sean Covey. The seven habits are:

1. Be Proactive
2. Begin With the End in Mind
3. Put First Things First
4. Think Win-Win
5. Think First to Understand, Then to Be Understood
6. Synergize
7. Sharpen the Saw

The design of this mural is based on the first of the seven habits: Be Proactive. It features kids in a field planting and growing trees and flowers, which represents the active role they take in creating and meeting an end goal. The bonsai represents the harmony between the kids and the unity they exhibit as they work together. They are taking responsibility and getting the job done, no matter what.
