ADVANCED MEN'S DEVELOPMENT · TRIGGER MAPPING™

Trace one trigger back to where it started.

This isn't a quiz. You're going to write your own answers, in your own words. Ten questions, two parts. Part one finds the pattern. Part two finds where it was installed. Give it fifteen honest minutes.

Before we start

What's the trigger?

Doesn't need to be perfectly worded. Anger, shutting down, needing to control things, whatever fires in you. Name it, or pick one below.

Anger

Shutting down

Needing to control things

Overworking

People pleasing

Jealousy

Withdrawal

YOUR MAP

Here's the line, start to now.

Your own words, laid out in order.

BASED ON WHAT YOU WROTE

ONE MORE THING

After all that, where do you actually sit?

Not where you want to be. Where you actually are right now, with this specific trigger. Pick honestly.

4Resolved

It can still happen. It just doesn't run you anymore.

3Catching It Live

You feel it rising before it takes over. You just haven't resolved why it's there.

2Aware, Still Stuck

You can name it now. Naming it hasn't stopped it running you.

1Reacting Blind

It's already happened before you even see it coming.

YOU JUST DID PART ONE AND TWO OF TRIGGER MAPPING™.

Locating the pattern and finding where it started is the map. It's not the fix. Neutralising the charge, so that memory stops running your life today, is a different skill entirely. That's not something a worksheet does alone.
