GROWING EDGES
What are growing edges?
The tools you need for the Situations You Encounter
The ability to think and reason can be our greatest asset or our deadliest enemy. The thoughts that run through our minds can free us or hold us captive. Managing our thinking is not a simple task. Harder still is to not believe every thing we think, or to let our thoughts drive our behavior. The WIZMINs we present here are meant to challenge your thinking and to develop your metacognition. Our second brain is what we refer to as our thinking about our thinking. The observing brain can be when developed a more objective observer of our thoughts and behaviors, possible a more adult self. Let these skills improve your thought management system. Life in Process is here to help you. Explore the titles below for skills that we often need in adult life but we often either have not learned nor were aware that we needed.
Helping you one skill at at time to improve your personal insight & effectivenessÂ
An easy three step process. First you locate the skill you think you need. Gain the understanding you need to use it.
Next you practice the skill in the situation(s) you feel you could do better. See if it works or at least improves the interaction.Â
Then keep practicing until the skill becomes second nature. Over time your ability to use the skill effectively will work. Using Life in Progress WIZMIN tools to evaluate your skills will speed up this practice, e.g., behavior chain analysis or running game film.
