"Helping people develop life skills is increasingly recognised as a successful way to tackle social exclusion. But attempts to ‘teach’ life skills are often based on a misunderstanding of how people actually learn. We all have life skills that enable us to deal with everyday social and workplace situations without thinking. Life skills enable us to plan our lives, negotiate compromises with others, control our tempers and project a sense of who we are."
