Positive Life Changes, Workbook 3 (Set Of 5): How Do I Solve Problems and Make Good Decisions?: How Do I Solve Problems and Make Good Decisions?, Workbook 3 (Set Of 5)

The emphasis of this workbook is on helping participants learn a step-by-step method for making decisions and life choices that builds on their awareness of the present moment, highlights their strengths, is consistent with their goals, helps them solve problems, and has positive consequences. Sold in packets of five, not available individually.

Because adolescents are more likely to make impulsive and often risky decisions, the ability to reflect and think carefully before making a decision is one of the most critical skills they must learn and practice. The final workbook in the program teaches the Eight Steps to Personal Success—a structured decision-making and social problem solving framework that includes identifying problems, setting goals, generating solutions, evaluating consequences for self and others, and making effective decisions. The underlying premise is that participants will behave more responsibly if they learn to deal with everyday conflicts and problems more effectively.
