MC02-Lesson 8: TEDAIM Activities

Identify three emotional triggers you experience regularly. Write one sentence for each explaining why it affects you.

Track your emotions over the course of a day using simple labels (e.g., calm, frustrated, hopeful). Note patterns in timing, context, or intensity.

Practise the 4-Step Emotional Reset during the next stressful moment. Record the outcome.

Choose a recent failure or setback. Write how you would reinterpret it using optimistic reframing and courage micro-actions.

Create your “Emotional Mastery Code”—three principles that guide how you handle emotional moments.

Schedule a weekly 10-minute emotional maintenance ritual (audit, reset, letting-go list).

In 120–150 words, write about a recent moment when you felt emotionally unsettled.

What triggered the emotion?

How might the tools from this cluster help you respond differently next time?

Choose a real workplace or community situation where emotional intensity influenced the outcome.

In 250–300 words:

• Describe the situation and your emotional response.
• Analyse the trigger and how stress or fear contributed.
