I made a decision tree, as well as a 1 page worksheets for both the Enrichment and Beyond Control box. I also explain the definitions of each resource your Manny will be needing to evaluate.
I CANNOT stress enough that THIS SURVEYING of RESOURCES is EXTREMELY stressful to conduct as a manual processor. THIS. WILL. HELP. THEM. SEE. IT. ALL. IN. ONE. SPOT. for the VERY FIRST TIME.
WE ALL survey our resources before we engage in any activity or before we subconsciously absorb information. If our brain determines it to be a threat it WILL reject it. Automatic processors are doing this so unconsciously that they are UNAWARE of this process. Manual processors are ACUTELY aware they need to do this, and must gather the mental energy to track all the elements of their well being and gauge and consider how the request might impact them. On top of this, there are a million other things happening at once. The world goes so fast and the task becomes impossible to do.
THESE charts show you everything in one spot. This allows for quick and efficient decision making. Because the brain is amazing and driven by patterns, it begins quickly absorbing these steps until they no longer are conscious steps anymore.
It’s HARD to track progress of abstract progress. What I mean by this, is it’s incredibly difficult to see they’re working because your brain just starts doing it without being conscious. The next time you are effortlessly able to change plans or come up with an alternate idea WITHOUT a meltdown. TAKE NOTE that would have NEVER happened before. NEVER. It helps to have supporters around your Manny who are paying attention to their progress so you can bring it to their attention and celebrate the amazing progress they make.
THE BRAIN IS AMAZING. PLEASE comment your experiences with this!
