1) The document discusses different levels of control an individual has in decision making, including control over their own decisions, circumstances, and emotional reactions. 2) While one can directly control their own decisions by using processes like PRICE, they have less control over circumstances in their community or family. Understanding risks in one's environment can still indirectly influence decision making. 3) As people age, they gain more control and judgment over their own personality traits and strengths/weaknesses, though these were not fully formed or changeable from the start. Understanding one's own characteristics is important for decision making.

This document provides examples of high-risk and low-risk behaviors, along with their potential rewards and consequences. It discusses how getting drunk every weekend or taking ecstasy tablets could result in health problems, accidents, or risky actions due to being in an altered state. However, such behaviors may provide short-term rewards like feeling part of a group or experiencing a "high". The document emphasizes that high-risk behaviors generally have a high probability of leading to problems or bad consequences. It advises using the PRICE decision-making process to minimize risks by carefully considering the purpose, risks, information reliability, alternatives, and feeling of making a good choice.

This document provides a risk assessment activity for students to evaluate risky circumstances in their lives that could lead to high-risk behavior.

Students are instructed to add up their scores to understand their overall risk level and how it could impact decision making.
8.5 trans 1
This document discusses different levels of control in gambling and why some people develop gambling problems while others do not. It explains that gamblers who believe the outcomes can be controlled through superstitions are more likely to develop problems, as games of chance do not allow knowing the outcome beforehand. It also discusses controlling decision making about gambling through understanding reasons for gambling and risks involved, versus having no control over outcomes in games of chance which are determined by chance. The document advocates making informed decisions about gambling and knowing how to be a responsible gambler.
Risky choices
Teenagers often make regrettable decisions when intoxicated at parties due to peer pressure and a failure to fully consider the risks. Peer pressure can influence someone into feeling obligated to do something dangerous, like drinking or taking drugs, to avoid being ridiculed. However, making risky choices that could harm one's future health and life is putting faith in a gamble rather than making a thoughtful, brave decision to stay safe. It is important for teens to think choices through and remain strong against peer pressure so they do not end up regretting an action that permanently changes their life.
Learned optimism
1. The document discusses optimism and pessimism, including defining optimism and pessimism and describing how people with these explanatory styles react differently to good and bad events.
2. It describes various tests and scales used to measure optimism and pessimism based on how permanent, pervasive, and personal individuals perceive causes of events to be. Lower scores indicate more optimism.
3. While pessimism can help with reality, excess pessimism is linked to depression, poorer health, lower achievement, and children doing worse when facing adversity. The document advocates learning to dispute pessimistic beliefs and develop a more optimistic explanatory style.
Peer Pressure
The document discusses peer pressure and provides advice on how to manage it. Peer pressure occurs when one feels influenced by peers to do something they normally wouldn't do, or prevented from doing something they want, in order to be accepted. It can affect fashion choices, substance use, relationships and academics. While peer pressure may sometimes motivate, it can also lead one to act against their values. The document recommends finding people with shared interests, saying "no" confidently, and seeking help from trusted individuals if feeling unable to handle peer pressure situations.
Optimism- Good or Bad
The document discusses optimism bias, which is the tendency for people to overestimate the likelihood of positive events and underestimate the likelihood of negative events happening to them personally. Several studies are described that show this bias. For example, newlyweds estimate their chance of divorce as 0% when the actual rate is 40%. Further experiments show that optimism can have benefits like better health, but can also lead to risks if it results in ignoring warning signs. The document concludes that knowledge can help achieve a balance between optimism and realistic risk assessment.

Session 5 self esteem ( SMS )
The document discusses the concepts of self-esteem, including its importance and signs of low self-esteem. It explains that self-esteem develops from childhood experiences and one's inner voice. People with low self-esteem often consider themselves unworthy and seek approval, while those with high self-esteem have confidence and feel deserving. The pillars of self-esteem are self-acceptance, living consciously, taking responsibility, assertiveness, living purposefully, and integrity.
A Positive Attitude is Contagious
"one rotten apple spoils a bunch". Learn how a positive attitude can transform your organization and give you more opportunities for success.
Why you think you're right even when you're wrong
the ability to judge, make a decision, or form an opinion objectively, authoritatively, and wisely, especially in matters affecting action; good sense; discretion. The forming of an opinion, estimate, notion, or conclusion, as from circumstances presented to the mind.
Self Esteem
Self-esteem is the belief in one's own self-worth and competence. It is built over time through living consciously, accepting oneself unconditionally, taking responsibility for one's actions and choices, being assertive, living purposefully according to one's values, and behaving with integrity. Low self-esteem can result from negative core beliefs, shame, or acting against one's values. To increase self-esteem, one can challenge negative core beliefs, engage in purposeful action, learn from mistakes, forgive oneself, and focus on personal growth rather than past failures.

Motivation and Self-Regulation: How Self-Awareness and Observation can Increa...MRG (Management Research Group)
The motivational predispositions we possess inform the way we experience the world – and they are with us through good times and bad. Developing a deeper awareness of our motivational drivers can help us with the essential and difficult work of self-regulation: making conscious choices to manage our emotional impulses and respond more objectively (and productively) to life’s challenges.
In this webinar, we explore:
The fundamentals of motivation: recognizing our drivers, as well as their complexities and contradictions
How motivation can manifest in our lives - in ways that may help us or challenge us
The cycles of reaction: identifying what our sensitivities are, how we react, and what we can do to mitigate their impactLet's Talk About It: Ovarian Cancer - Cultivating Resilience
Resilience is the ability to recover and adapt in the face of stress. Resilience is also a term that refers to a number of skills and characteristics that contribute to our ability to face hardship. Together we can work to name and strengthen the qualities that not only resonate but that you are discovering within yourself as you navigate cancer survivorship.
Self esteem
This document provides information on self-esteem and strategies to increase low self-esteem. It defines self-esteem as beliefs about one's own self-worth, which can be positive (high self-esteem) or negative (low self-esteem). Low self-esteem is related to poorer mental health and can be caused by negative childhood/life experiences. The document recommends identifying negative core beliefs, challenging them with evidence, engaging in positive thinking exercises, setting achievable goals, spending time with supportive people, maintaining hobbies, exercise, diet, mindfulness, and assertiveness to boost self-esteem over time.

Thank you for completing the Self Limiting Behavior Inventory. You are now on the road to
Limitless Behavior!
WHAT DOES THE SLBI™ MEASURE?
The SLBI™ measures your behavior which limits or handicaps your efforts in life and at work. It
specifically measures your behaviors used to gain control - both dominating and caretaking, to
acheive predictability and stability, to avoid accountability, bolster your self-esteem, use external
indices to substitute for low self-esteem, and your level of pessimism. These clusters of
behaviors have been found to limit efforts in organizations to improve customer focus, quality
improvement, outcome based decision making, and empowerment. If you try to micro-manage
everything and everyone, need someone or something else to feel complete, panic when things
aren’t calm and predictable, feel responsible all the time but hate to be accountable when things
go wrong, use external awards, belongings, or degrees to feel worthy, and are constantly negative
and cynical, you are self-limiting yourself and probably your organization. Self-limiting behavior
is learned and can, therefore, be unlearned and modified. Knowing your SLBI™ scores will help
you get in touch with this behavior and learn how to not rely on it as much in the future! Reading
LIMITLESS publications will help even more. Self-limiting behaviors are those things we do to
protect our images of competence or our images of the competence and worth of the organization
that employs us. Selflimiting behaviors mostly stem from an intense investment in protecting
self-worth. When our self-regard is vulnerable, we are prone to attempt to control our
environment inappropriately, avoid failure and accountability, seek stability and predictability,
avoid emotion, intimacy and risk, and use artificial monitors to assess and artificial props to
bolster our self-worth. We start to learn these behaviors as children when we grow up in families
where love is conditional, there is abuse, when our personal boundaries are violated repeatedly,
or when we have to become surrogate.

Gambling act
1) The document is the National Gambling Act of 2004 which provides for the regulation of gambling activities like casinos, racing and wagering in South Africa.
2) It establishes uniform norms and standards for gambling regulation across the country to protect the public, prevent overstimulation of gambling demand, and ensure licensing is fair.
3) It retains the National Gambling Board as a juristic person responsible for monitoring compliance, investigating provincial licensing, maintaining registries, and researching socio-economic impacts of gambling.

Encourage the gambler to seek professional help. Do not lend them money or try to solve their problems for them. Take care of your own emotional and financial well-being, and seek support from others you trust. While it's normal to feel angry or betrayed, do not blame yourself for their actions or try to force them to stop gambling against their will.

Some people develop a gambling problem whereas others don't for several reasons:
- The thrill of uncertainty and not knowing when or how much they will win drives some people to keep gambling. The rewards of winning give them a thrill and make them feel good.
- Entrapment causes some players to feel like they can't escape and become determined to continue gambling to recoup losses, convincing themselves they will win with the next round.
- Most people who gamble do not experience problems because they only spend money they can afford and see it as entertainment, whereas problem gamblers feel they have lost more than they can comfortably afford and cannot control how much time or money they spend gambling.

A document provides three scenarios for role playing how to cope when a friend or family member has a gambling problem. The first scenario involves an older sister who feels depressed about money lost from gambling and says she gambles to forget about being lonely. The second scenario describes a father who has been losing money gambling and claims he needs to gamble for household expenses since he does not have a job. The third scenario is about a friend who has been losing money gambling and asks for a loan, saying he knows how to win now and will never speak to his friend again if the loan is not provided.

Problem gamblers feel they have lost more money than they can afford and are unable to limit the time and money spent gambling. For example, Joe spends his mother's money gambling instead of his own spare money and skips school to gamble. Joe's gambling has likely caused financial problems and debts, family conflict, problems at school, and addiction issues.

This document discusses the costs of gambling. It explains that gambling businesses set rules for games to ensure they make a profit on average, called the "house advantage." The house advantage guarantees the business will earn money over time, even though any individual player may win sometimes. It provides examples of house advantages in coin tossing and roulette games. In coin tossing, the house charges $1 to bet but only pays $1.80 if the player wins, earning a $0.20 advantage. In roulette, a $1 bet on all numbers would win $36 but cost $37, giving the house a $1 advantage each time. Therefore, while luck allows some players to win sometimes, mathematics ensures the

This document contains a learning activity sheet with 19 statements about gambling. Students are asked to indicate whether each statement is true or false. Some key points made in the statements include: the odds of winning big prizes from lotteries or dice games are very low; past outcomes do not influence future probabilities; some types of gambling like sports betting involve predicting unpredictable events; and gambling frequently results in spending more money than won.

This document discusses various statements about gambling and the probabilities involved. It provides the truth value for each statement - whether it is true or false - and often a brief explanation. Key points made include:
- Outcomes of random events like lottery drawings or dice rolls cannot be predicted and are not influenced by past results.
- The house/casino always has statistical advantage over players in games of chance, ensuring they make money overall.
- While some element of skill can influence outcomes in games like poker, chance is still a major factor and luck evens out over many games.
- Specific probabilities are given for various gambling scenarios to illustrate how unlikely winning big prizes truly is.

Gambling outcomes are based on random chance and cannot be predicted or influenced through superstitions, patterns, or continued play. While skill at video games does not translate to gambling games, understanding that gambling results cannot be controlled and the house has an long-term advantage can help manage risks and problem gambling.

This document discusses probability and games of chance like coin tosses, dice rolls, and lotteries. It explains that in these games, outcomes are random and unpredictable because they involve chance without patterns. The probabilities of outcomes do not change over time. For example, the chance of picking a specific lottery number now is the same as in the future. When calculating probability, it is the number of desired outcomes divided by the total possible outcomes. In roulette, the probability of landing on an odd number is 18/37 since there are 18 odd numbers out of 37 total numbers on the wheel. Understanding probabilities can help people make sensible decisions about gambling by recognizing the risks involved.

This document provides a probability word problem with 5 multiple choice questions. It describes different chance scenarios involving dice, a slot machine wheel, and a roulette wheel. For each scenario, it asks the reader to calculate the probability of a certain outcome and select the correct fraction from the multiple choice options, with hints provided to solve each problem.

This document contains 6 multiple choice questions about random processes and uncertain outcomes. The questions cover topics like the probability of outcomes when throwing dice, whether the probability of an outcome changes after previous occurrences, and whether the outcome of events like cricket matches and horse races can be predicted with certainty. Most of the questions have answers indicating that while certain factors may influence outcomes, they cannot be predicted with absolute certainty due to the many complex and uncertain variables involved.

People gamble for various reasons: to win money, for entertainment, to belong to a group, to alleviate boredom, to support charity, to escape problems, for mood change, to experience winning, or because friends and family do.

The history of gambling in South Africa shows that ancient populations gambled and Bushman paintings depict gambling activities. When the Dutch settled in the 17th century, the first ban on gambling was established in 1673. Gambling expanded greatly during gold and diamond rushes. Prior to 1996, most gambling was illegal except for horse racing and casinos in former homelands, and the black market was run by criminal groups. In 1996, the new democratic government legalized some forms of gambling so adults could spend money on entertainment of their own choice. There are now licensed casinos and lotteries, though illegal gambling still occurs.

However, the small print at the bottom reveals the extremely low odds of winning the large prizes, suggesting this is likely a scam intended to deceive people into paying fees under false pretenses of winning money.

Gambling has existed for centuries in many ancient cultures and civilizations. Evidence shows that gambling was practiced in ancient China, Egypt, and Greece, where the gods were believed to gamble. Gambling was also used in ancient religions to determine the will of the gods and is referenced in the Bible. Throughout history, gambling was used to settle political disputes or make unbiased decisions, such as using dice to determine country borders. Common instruments for gambling included dice, cards, roulette wheels, and later, slot machines.

- 1. Levels of control • Can you control the decision you make about whether you should take part in a certain risky behaviour? Yes. The PRICE decision-making process can help you make informed decisions. • Can you control the circumstances in your community, or in your family? To a certain extent. Understanding your own risky circumstances will also help you make better decisions about getting involved in high-risk behaviour. You often don't have control of the circumstances in which you live, but being aware of how they can influence the probability of bad consequences, will give you a powerful tool in your decision making. • Are you able to control your own emotional reactions and personality? As you grow older, hopefully you'll have more control and judgment over your own strengths and weaknesses. How do you tend to react to certain situations? Are you impulsive, impatient, hot-tempered? In other words, what are your characteristics? Are you a dependable person, or do you break promises easily? Are you willing to admit to mistakes or do you think you're always right? Understanding yourself better is also an important part of being able to make good decisions. Whereas you have lots of control over what decision you make, you have less control over the circumstances in which you find yourself and over your own personal characteristics.
