The document discusses the challenges students face when transitioning from being "stars" in high school to average students at Stanford. It proposes using random text messages throughout the day to prompt students to list three positive things about their current situation as a way to increase positivity and combat stress from failure without embarrassment. Existing solutions like counseling, online forums, and inspirational quotes are deemed flawed because they are not specific, frequent, or personal enough for this environment. The texting solution could spark behavior change by connecting a mindfulness exercise directly to the individual student's situation through personalized, regular prompts on their phone.
