I find something productive to do. It feels good to know I made the time count.

I follow whatever catches my interest—a place, idea, experience, or something new to learn.

I do what I always do on Saturday mornings—clean the house and run my errands.

I reach out to see what other people are doing and whether their plans sound better than mine.

I make plans to do something I know I’ll enjoy.

I enjoy having the day to myself and deciding what I want to do as I go.

I look for some quiet and solitude—a little time when nobody needs anything from me.

I make both plans work, even if it means taking on more. I don’t want them to think I can’t handle it.

I keep my plans and see whether they’ll make room for what matters to me right now.

I change my plans. This relationship has always required it of me.

I change my plans. Honestly, that’s probably part of why we’ve stayed close for so long.

I honor the commitment I’ve made. I don’t want to keep putting off what I want to do.

I keep my plans. I’ve learned that if I don’t protect my time, others will decide how I spend it.

I go along with what they want to keep the peace and make the best of it.

Work harder. I focus on what I can improve or turn around.

I look for something different and explore what else might feel like a better fit.

I call someone I trust and ask what they think I should do.

Adjust. If things aren’t going as planned, I find another way.

I keep pursuing it. If I still want to go where I’m headed, I find another way to get there.

Regroup. I take time to figure out what happened before deciding what to do next.

Keep going. I make the best of what I have and do what needs to be done.

“Is this how they’ve been seeing me? Does this change what they think I’m capable of?”

“Why did that hit me so hard? Is there something here I need to understand?”

“Maybe they’re seeing something about me I haven’t noticed yet.”

“Okay, what do I need to do differently?”

“I hear what they’re saying, but I still think this is something I want to pursue.”

“I had good reasons for my choice, but maybe I need to look at it again.”

“I’ve heard negative things about myself before. I try not to let this one get to me.”

I take it on and make sure I do it well. I take pride in being someone who can handle a lot.

I review my schedule to figure out how I got so overloaded and why everyone keeps coming to me.

I keep going because this kind of workload seems to come with being successful at this level.

I move some things around and figure out how to fit them in.

I take it on if I see how it could move me closer to what I’m working toward.

I stop and decide whether this really needs to be mine before agreeing to anything.

I take care of it and keep going. It’s just one more thing to get through.

“Will this choice give me a chance to prove what I’m really capable of?”

“Will this choice give me what I’ve been looking for?”

“What is someone in my position supposed to choose?”

“Will the choice I make work for everyone?”

“How would this decision affect the life I want to live?”
