Adapt the task or ask for work support · S4.7

Choose your own pace for an ordinary activity

You feel pressured to match a pace that does not suit you.

Everyday practice

Try these steps

1. Identify the activity and which parts of its pace you control.
2. Choose a comfortable pace or request more time.
3. Notice whether the pace fits the task without interpreting it as emotional flexibility.

An example

I ask to read the instructions before the group starts the next step.

Reflect

Was the pace workable for you?

Next time

Adjust it when the task or your needs change.
