Name the Pattern, Change the Pattern

A repeated behavior can feel like identity: procrastinator, rescuer, avoider, overworker. But a label hides the sequence that keeps the pattern alive—the trigger, thought, feeling, response, temporary reward, and later cost. William R. Stanek guides you through a Pattern Trace so you can see where change is most practical. You will identify what the behavior solves in the short term, choose one interruption point, and test a different response without condemning the whole self.
