We all face situations everyday that we can either make better or worse. This slide set seeks to outline things that if we can check, will prevent the situation from getting worse due to us and keep us in a state where we can make it better. Others may behave in
a way that causes deterioration, but we must not. We need to have control of ourselves so we can be
agents for good. Which of these are easy for you to avoid? Which can you improve? Here is to being
better. Good luck on your journey.--Tom Curtis
