The real formula forfeelings
Event + Thoughts = Feeling
![Page 5: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Thoughts cause feelings,not events
![Page 6: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Event + Thoughts = Feeling
Everything otherssay and do
and that happens is just an
EVENT
![Page 7: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
It’s YOUR choice….• How you look at things• What meaning you attach• What you remember about the past• What you imagine will happen next• What you expect (self, others, life)• What you focus on• What you compare things to• How much importance you attach• What you spend your time thinking about
![Page 8: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
It’s YOUR choicehow you want to feel
![Page 9: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• No one upsets you, you upset yourself
• You are responsible for how you feel, not others
• It’s not their problem if you feel bad, it’s yours
• It’s not their job to make you feel better, it’s yours
![Page 10: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Event + Thoughts = Feeling
“It’s just an EVENT”
Is NOT intended to bediscounting
of a tragic eventin your life
![Page 11: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
“It’s your choice how you want to feel”does NOT mean…
• You shouldn’t feel the way you do
• It’s your fault you feel that way
• There’s something wrong with you for feeling that way
• It’s okay others said or did something
• You’re making a big deal out of nothing
![Page 12: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
It simply meansthere will always be more than
one wayto look at anything
![Page 13: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
And some ways will makeyou feel BETTER
And others will make youfeel WORSE
![Page 14: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Some will make it EASIERto deal with things
Others will make it HARDER
![Page 15: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
And you do have aCHOICE
![Page 16: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
![Page 17: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Developing an Internal LOC also means…
• To learn what you do and don’t control
• To focus on and work with what you do control
![Page 19: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
![Page 20: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Reality is….
• We can’t control what others think, feel, say and do
• We only control what we think, feel, say and do
![Page 21: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Furthermore….
• Others can think, feel, say and do whatever they want to
• They don’t have to think, feel, say or do anything
• Least of all what we want them to
![Page 22: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
It also means…
To avoid taking unnecessaryresponsibility for how
others make themselves feel
![Page 23: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
You’re responsible forwhat you say and do
But not for how othersmake themselves feel about it
![Page 24: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
People can upset themselvesas little or as much
as they want to
![Page 25: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
It’s THEIR choice….
• How THEY look at things
• What meaning THEY attach
• What THEY remember about the past
• What THEY imagine will happen next
• What THEY expect (self, others, life)
• What THEY focus on
• What THEY compare things to
• How much importance THEY attach
![Page 26: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
It’s THEIR choicehow THEY want to feel
![Page 27: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• No one upsets them, they upset themselves
• You’re not responsible for how they feel, they are
• It’s not your problem if they upset themselves, it’s theirs
• It’s not your job to make them feel better, it’s theirs
![Page 28: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

But most of all
Being smarter than everyone else

Life Skill #4

make changes(page 6)
![Page 31: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
![Page 32: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Fact
Everything you think, feel, say and do
is a product ofconnections and pathways
between nerve cellsin your brain
![Page 33: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
![Page 34: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
It then becomesAUTOMATIC
to think, feel, say and do things
![Page 35: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Types of RUTS
• Cognitive (thinking)
• Emotional (feeling)
• Behavioral (doing)
![Page 36: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
RUTS
• Why people tend to recreate their past
• Why peoples history often becomes their destiny
• That could be good or bad
![Page 37: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Important
• Once RUTS are created, you can’t get rid of them
• You can only make new ones
![Page 38: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
To Change
• Make a new connection to think, feel, and do things differently
• Use it until it becomes a RUT
• Until it can compete with your old RUTS
![Page 39: Tool Kit for Life](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022102819/56814dd0550346895dbb2c19/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
