The Art of Solution Focused Therapy

Focusing on a clear vision of your preferred future can propel you towards success.

Think of an artist who visualizes the perfect painting before the first brushstroke hits the canvas; it's this vision that guides every action.

• Clarity breeds motivation: A vivid picture of the future stirs passion and drive.
• Creates a roadmap: A clear endpoint helps chart the path and identify necessary steps.
• Reduces ambiguity: Vision minimizes doubts and indecision by providing direction.

Spend 10 minutes today visualizing a specific success you wish to achieve and jot down the feelings and actions associated with it.

Avoid getting overwhelmed by detailing every single step; instead, focus on the final outcome and allow flexibility in the journey.

The words you use can redefine your reality and influence your journey towards solutions.

Imagine language as the GPS for your life's journey, guiding you towards your desired destination with each turn you articulate.

• Words create perspective: Positive language fosters hope and a solution-oriented mindset.
• Influences behavior: What you say influences how you feel and ultimately how you act.
• Empowers change: Language can transform perception, opening new avenues and possibilities.

Replace one negative statement about yourself or your situation with a positive, empowering one.

Beware of defaulting to negative self-talk; stay conscious of your choice of words and their impact.

Harnessing present moment strengths can build confidence and momentum towards your goals.

Think of it like planting seeds in a garden; focusing on the strength and health of each seed ensures a lush, vibrant future bloom.

• Builds resilience: Recognizing current strengths reinforces your capacity to overcome future challenges.
• Encourages gratitude: Focusing on what you already have boosts morale and motivation.
• Facilitates forward movement: Current capabilities are the building blocks of future achievements.

Identify one personal strength you have now and consider how it can support your next step forward.

It's easy to overlook or undervalue current strengths, focusing instead on what you lack; ensure you regularly acknowledge and celebrate your existing abilities.
