The Four Ps: A Framework for Thoughtful Responding
In the inside game, creating space between stimulus and response allows for thoughtful and deliberate action. Reacting leads to panic and rushing, while responding involves pausing, processing, making a plan, and then proceeding. By pausing and naming emotions, we separate ourselves from the storm of emotions and can begin the path to a response. Core values help guide our actions, and the process can be quick or longer depending on the situation. Adopting the four Ps - pause, process, plan, and proceed - can lead to better outcomes.
