Timing

Do you leave enough time for your transitions? Do you have a routine or daily rhythm that includes enough time for transitions?

Hard and Soft Transitions

Soft transitions are something we do all the time in our daily schedule as we move through our daily rhythms. Hard transitions are the unexpected ones—last minute cancellations, unexpected visitors, interruptions in our routine. When transitions so smoothly, how do you react? When they are rough or unexpected, how do you react? How does the hard vs. soft element affect your reaction?

The Shift

Thinking about your transitions list from Day 1: What are some ways you could make them more pleasant? For example, when you’re driving to and from work, could you listen to a favorite playlist, favorite radio station, or podcast? Could you make it a habit to call your mom or a good friend during that time? Brainstorm a list of ways you could make transitions more pleasant for you.

Preference

What are some guidelines you might want to keep in mind during transitions…for example, my husband prefers not to complete items on his “honey do list” right before bed. Instead, he prefers to wind down for a significant amount of time. What are your preferences during transitions?

How do you react?

In other words, what do you model? Do you model what you want your children to do or do you have unbecoming reactions that you don’t want them to copy?

Emotions

How do you handle transitions? Calmly? Frantically? A mixed bag?

What

What are your daily or weekly transitions? What do they look like? Think about them. List them.
