These individuals are generally disciplined about

These individuals are generally disciplined about how they use their time, and they are relatively slow. They don't like to be rushed, and they want time to ponder things before making decisions. So you should be patient with these individuals, but you may also need to be persistent so that they don't let too much time go by before making commitments. They move deliberately, which some people can view as unnecessarily slow or even uncooperative. However, this is simply their way of doing things and does not necessarily reflect their attitude about a topic. #SOCIALSTYLEtip #AnalyticalStyle

To increase your emotion awareness, write down you

To increase your emotion awareness, write down your emotional triggers: those things that cause you to feel stressed or angry. Once you understand the sources of your difficult emotions, you can take steps to regulate your emotions, and not be as susceptible to stress.⁣

If you polled a person's co-workers about the one

If you polled a person's co-workers about the one thing they should do more of, inevitably many people would focus on a person's Style Growth Action. For Expressive Style people this means they should consciously monitor their impact on others and control some of their behavior that can be overwhelming for co-workers. They should evaluate the appropriateness of their actions, which is challenging for them because they are naturally pre-disposed to be spontaneous and outgoing. If they are able to do this, they will find that co-workers respond better to them and are more willing to work with them. #SOCIALSTYLEtip #ExpressiveStyle

On average, people use between 300 and 1,000 words

On average, people use between 300 and 1,000 words per minute in self-talk. What you say to yourself has a big influence on your beliefs and confidence. Do you focus on the positive or how you can improve, or on the negative and your shortcomings? Do not be surprised if you tend to say negative or limiting things to yourself; this is human nature. Research shows that humans suffer from a "negativity bias." Due to natural selection, the human brain is wired to find and respond to threats and setbacks. For example, we are more alert for predators than we are for a potential lunch. Because of this adaptive habit, we react to bad things more quickly, strongly, and persistently than good things. Unfortunately, this natural habit can be devastating for self-confidence. If you focus too much on the negative, you are reinforcing low self-confidence.⁣

Amiable Style people usually will not rush into de

Amiable Style people usually will not rush into decisions, at least not with decisions that have broad implications or involve risk and dramatic change. They want reassurance that decisions will not result in dramatic changes to the status quo or any sort of damage to meaningful relationships. They value the input of trusted others, so you can help them make decisions by offering your advice and counsel. They seek clear and specific advice with assurance that they are making the right decision. You can give them specific recommendations, but be prepared to stand behind your advice. #SOCIALSTYLEtip #AmiableStyle

A good first step for maintaining self-control is

A good first step for maintaining self-control is to mentally rehearse common situations that set off your emotional triggers. Research shows that when you mentally rehearse scenarios, you are activating the same neural circuitry that is activated when you are actually in the scenario. Instead of responding the way you typically have in the past, imagine yourself acting in a more productive way. Develop a mental "movie" of yourself and clearly imagine yourself behaving in the ways you want. This will help prepare you for when these situations actually occur. You will have a script to follow.
