There is a first time for everything, but chances are you find yourself repeating the same strategies over and over⏤good or bad.

When was the last time you …

Retraced your steps

Took a closer look

Questioned your motives

Listened to your instinct

Ignored good advice

Leapt without looking

Looked away

Ran away

Cut at the root

Threw a match

Pulled the plug

Admitted you were wrong

Made a sacrifice

Fought back tears

Made the first move

Acted with mercy

Asked the hard questions

Threw the first punch

Forgave someone

Make a life-changing decision

Ended a relationship

Yielded to anger

Yielded to love

Set a boundary

Redefined a relationship

Rolled with the punches

Pretended not to hear

Laughed out loud

Listened without judgement

Revealed a hidden truth

Refused to pre-judge

Changed your mind

Made a split-second decision

Showed your true colors

Walked away from a conflict

Surrendered
