"Reframe Your Thoughts" Printable

Happiness is a state of mind; it lies in the way you look at things - and this can be practiced, influenced, shaped and changed. Our thought about something affects how we feel about it. So if we want to change how we feel, we have to change our thought - in other words, the way we think.

When a negative event arises, practice looking at things from all angles and seeing things from a different point of view. Instead of focusing on the negative, focus on the positive, the lessons learned, and the growth. When things don’t go our way, learn to accept and understand. This practice is not easy. But it will get easier each time we practice it as we keep rewiring our brain until it becomes a part of who we are.

Everyone is different. It is inevitable that we will have disagreements and conflicts with people in our lives especially with those close to us. However, if we can learn to put ourselves in their shoes, we will not be as upset as we learn to become more understanding and acceptant. Disagreements will be resolved in a calmer manner. It is not easy to put ourselves in other people's shoes, but if we keep practicing it, one day it will become automatic for us to do so. Not only will we have more peace of mind by adopting this habit, but we will also foster stronger bonds and more harmonious relationships that last with those we love.

"What Should I Do" Printable

Time and time again, we have to make hard decisions. When the choices are obvious, it's easy to make a decision. However, sometimes we're stuck between two choices that yield equal amounts of benefits and disadvantages. One choice might be better for your logical side while the other might be better for your emotional side. Nonetheless, we can admit that selecting one choice over the other, our life will be different. One choice would lead us to a path the other choice wouldn't. Because the risk of making the wrong decision is high, whether that's just in our mind or not, it is hard make a quick decision without thinking things through. 

Use this printable to help you weigh the pros and cons of the choices. If you are stuck between 3-4 choices, you can print another copy and follow the same framework.

We hope that this printable will help you gain clarity and be more clear about which choice to make.

"What A Pain I Can Be" Printable

Being self-aware is important. Besides being aware of our personality traits, strengths & weaknesses, and core values, in order for us to foster better relationships with others, it is important to understand that we are sometimes difficult to deal with and how.

No one is perfect. We are all flawed in some way. No one is happy and cheerful all the time. There are times when we're not our best selves and not in our best mood and behavior. We may be cranky and moody. We may respond to certain things in a certain way.

• By becoming aware of what a pain we can be, we can learn to communicate better and manage our emotions & behaviors better.

• By communicating this with our partner and people close to us, we can foster better understanding and acceptance, and build better relationships.

It is often the negative emotions, which usually arise during stressful times, and how we manage & respond to them that make or break relationships.

Therefore, these things should be openly discussed.

Use these printables to help bring more awareness to yourself and others.
