b"Chapter 8Even if you didn't predict exactly what the scenario would be, you have several ideas of how things might unfold. Instead of reacting in the moment, take the time to put your ideas into perspective and then respond. You will feel more in control because you will be better prepared.4.Reframe your problems: it is a very simple, yet subtle practice. We all have problems that we face on a daily basis. The first thing to do is to reframe even the idea thatthere are problems. Reframe your problems aschallengesbecause that willmakethemfun.Andthenturnyourchallengesintochanges.These are opportunities for you to learn something new, improve your skills, meet new people, etc.Expand the challenge in ways that are beyond you. This is how you explore and develop what you are capable of accomplishing. This way of proceeding becomes a source of inspiration every day, in order to encourage you to practice your agile mentality.5.Do the opposite: it's a technique that really helps if you get really stuck. Whatever you normally do, try doing the reverse. If you plan too much, try to do more. If you're jumping into things too quickly, try stepping back and coming up with a mini-plan. If you tend to say, no to new things, try saying yes.There are many variations on this, but this is the basic approach. Just try the opposite of your normal answers. This will help you practice learning to adapt.As you go along, you might ask people you trust, what you would do if you were me, in this particular situation.Gradually, this way of proceeding will help you to penetrate the most difficult or complex problems.12.Change someone's opinion: life is full of conflict. Have you ever had an argument with someone where they refuse to change their mind?266Germain Decelles"
