Week 10: Slowing the Story
A Mental Note to Carry
“The meaning we assign to a moment often shapes the conflict more than the moment itself.”
Reflection Prompt
When tension arises, what story do you tend to tell yourself about what’s happening?
How might that story shift if you looked at the situation with more generosity?
3 Practices for This Week
- Separate what actually happened from the interpretation you gave it.
- Ask yourself: What else might be true here?
- Look for the part of the situation you can influence.
