Page 9 - Needs Model Series: I feel a sense of control

Feeling great, doing great

We feel a sense of control over our lives if,

day after day:

1. we have a chance to say what we think;

2. our ideas are taken into account;

3. we are allowed to make decisions;

4. we feel certain about what will be happening;

5. we can keep up with the information and
instructions given to us and understand what

we are meant to be doing;

6. we feel certain about what we are being asked
to do and feel we can do a good job of it.

When all of these things happen, we feel content and positive. We start to build

up a belief that things will go well.

We walk into situations wearing yellow lenses.
