What do you think NOW?
Is there a connection
between the two?

5. Question your own
opinions
"The man who never alters his opinions
is like standing water, and breeds
reptiles of the mind"
William Blake

6. Be objective
about yourself
Ask others for perspective.
You can step on other

and how others see you.

8. Keep emotions at
arms length
Take responsibility for your feelings.
Pause between emotion and
reaction. Then respond.

9. Heaven and
hell are just
one
breath away!

10. Get familiar with
empathy
Why does this person
feel the way (s)he does?
What is (s)he dealing
with that I don't see?
Why do I feel differently
than (s)he does?

11. Switch on your
growth mindset
Emotions aside, what can I learn
from an alternate perspective?

12. A. Maslow
In any given
moment we
have two
options: to
step forward
in growth, to
step back
into safety.

13. Become a socialite
Practice makes perfect. Spend more time
with people, ask them about themselves, and
listen twice as much as you speak.

14. Understand your
motivation factors
Dreams
Belief
Positive environment
Fulfilment
Recognition
Success
Money
Achievement
Adapted from Herzberg's motivators and hygiene factors
Interpersonal relations

15. Change your posture
every now and then
Sitting in a collapsed,
helpless position makes it
easier for negative thoughts
and memories to appear
Sitting in an upright,
powerful position makes it
easier to have empowering
thoughts and memories.
Erik Peper, professor of psychology at San Francisco State University

16. Reduce stressful
situations
Stress can prevent your ability to focus
and promote negative thinking.
It can also impair cognition, judgement
and listening skills.
Dr. Michael Mantell, Ph.D., Advanced Behavior Coach

17. Cultivate curiosity
Curiosity is wonder in action.
Curious people are attractive because they
operate with an active mind and put the
attention exactly where people like it: on them.

18. Practice positive
thinking
A positive emotion results
in easiness in the torso
and a relaxed face.
It’s a safety signal for
others that this person is
safe to approach.
Professor Barbara Fredrickson, social psychologist,
University of North Carolina

19. When dealing with
people, remember
you are not dealing
with creatures of
logic, but with
creatures of
emotion.
Dale Carnegie
