Setting Boundaries

Hi LINC 7 Students,

We have been talking in class about setting healthy boundaries.

Here's a great online article called "3 Steps To Strengthening Your Boundaries To Build A Happier Life And Career". It discusses how we need to...

1) Gain self-awareness about our personal needs

2) Stopping "pleasing" others in order to feel safe

3) Get help so we can stop a cycle of abuse or mistreatment

Conflict Resolution Note-taking Practice

Hi Everyone,

Here's the link to the short video on Conflict Resolution. The narrator speaks very quickly, so you'll have to watch this several times - and perhaps even stop and start it as you listen!

Please complete the set of notes that I gave you as homework.

More on Emotional Intelligence

Hi Everyone,

Today, I'd like you to watch a slideshow (online) and make notes on the key ideas in it.

It's called "11 Signs That You Lack Emotional Intelligence." We don't want to emphasize the negative, but it's worth considering your behavior about these topics. 

For example, do you have trouble asserting yourself and what you want in life? 

Do you hold a grudge

Are you "triggered" by certain situations in life that create an emotional response in you?

Do you "hold in" your anger all the time?


This is good note-taking practice - and I hope you'll find it useful to consider these questions and behaviors in your daily lives.

We'll review your notes together in class.

Here's the link to the SLIDESHOW.
