Behavioural Flexibility...Enjoy Life!



Life is unpredictable. Setting your goals is important in your development and progress but it is essential you keep reviewing your goals and adjusting them to suit your current situation. When things don’t go the way we planned instead of getting flustered and stressed here are some suggestions:
• Get curious about how you respond. Take note of what you do immediately after something happens that you weren’t expecting. It may be hard at first, but in time, you will read the situation for what it is and nothing more. From this calm space you can make rational judgments and decisions. You control
how you feel, not your environment. It’s your choice.
• Know that you are exactly where you need to be at this moment and try accepting the moment for the challenge it offers.
• Imagine what you will know once you have overcome the hurdle you are facing. Take this hurdle in your life as feedback. What is the world trying to tell you? Why?
• Imagine your flexibility in the face of adversity. You will be stronger and have more resources to draw on in the future.
• Rigidity stops the flow of life. The more you resist, the more what you are resisting controls you. Let go of how you think the world should be and accept each moment as it is.
• Try to respond, not react. By trying to control your situation you ultimately let the situation control you and how you feel. Instead, try doing the opposite of what you would normally do -
you will see a difference.
REMEMBER: Enjoy life and know that you already have everything you need right now to create lasting, wonderful, change.
