•  Are there any situations in your life
               where you find yourself saying Yes, when
               you would have preferred to say No?

        On our journey together, we have been learning
        to notice, to listen and to observe our emotions,
        without judgement or criticism.

        As you reflect, notice any underlying emotions
        that were part of the exchange, in both yourself
        as well as the other party and be mindful to
        consider these without judgement or blame.
        Respect isn’t something that we say, it is
        something that we do.

        We cannot be in charge of the actions of others.
        We are however, in charge of our own choices.

        As you consider your own actions and
        interactions throughout the day, notice and ask
        yourself these questions;

            •  Were my actions and interactions
               Considered?
            •  Are the consequences of my actions and
               interactions Considerate?
            •  Considerate of my own well-being?
            •  Considerate of the well-being of others?
            •  And Considerate of the well-being of the
               wider environment around me?
