Control and influence
Work through one situation with a free control and influence worksheet, online or as a printable PDF.
About this resource
This worksheet looks closely at one situation: what you can choose, what you can influence and what you need to make room for. Unlike the broader circles exercise, it helps you consider your response to a particular difficulty.
How to use this resource
- Describe one situation you are facing.
- Separate your choices from the things you can only influence or cannot change.
- Choose a response that is manageable and matters to you.
An everyday example
While waiting for a decision, you could send any information that is needed and plan your day. You may not be able to choose when the decision arrives.
