4. Impulsivity

You want to reach your goals yet often act on the spur of the moment in ways that do not advance your goals:

  • Act before taking the time to think
  • Change your mind quickly and frequently about what you want in your life
  • Are easily influenced by others and by chance events

    • Take the time to develop second thought

    Meditate, use the quick relaxation strategies or ask for advice before quickly changing your goals
