Slide 2:
The world never stays the same.
People around us change.
We come up against new things every day.
Slide 3:
Our personal toolkit needs to be well-stocked to cope with all these changes.
Slide 4:
But the brain is lazy.
It will try and get away with using one tool for every job.
Slide 5:
We may think we’ve got a strong personality.
But that personality can make us a one-tool person. Like a tool box with only hammers in it.
Slide 6:
And when all you’ve got is hammers, everything in life looks like a nail.
Slide 7:
But life is full of things for which a hammer won’t work. When we come up against them we get stressed.
Slide 8:
To make the most of life we need a toolbox of behaviours to cope with anything.
Slide 9:
When we let go of the habits and beliefs that limit us, we can adapt to anything.
Slide 10:
When we are flexible, we cope with the changes in others too. We can yield without getting angry or anxious.
Slide 11:
Life gets better and more enjoyable.
