Premise and Purpose

Practical & Logical
Tricks people use to get what they want
Where pressure comes from—inside or outside
Standing up for yourself—shutting the door

Clear & Relevant
Understanding your Choicycle:
Thinking > Feeling > Seeing > Actions > Outcome
How to question and adjust your thoughts, attitude, and feelings
Getting real—being sensible about yourself and life

Tools for Life
A double-sided mirror: Your side reflects you— the other side reflects others
Observing rather than absorbing negative emotions
The importance of soup and baggage
Claiming your power—focusing on your POWER ZONE
Handling power seekers
