Colin's New and Improved Inventions
The document describes several inventions by Colin that improve on regular everyday items. The Super Sharpener can sharpen pencils automatically in one minute compared to using your hands. The Super Seat helps blind people locate seat belts and prevents forgetting to buckle up. Super Glasses transform into goggles when falling in water and have a soft strap to stay on better than regular glasses. The Super Band Aid uses buttons to easily stick on and remove the bandage, solving issues with regular band aids falling off or being hard to remove.

Motivational -law_of_the_seed
The document discusses the "Law of the Seed", which teaches that not all seeds planted will grow, similar to how efforts in life do not always succeed. It explains that successful people continue planting seeds through repeated tries and efforts. It also emphasizes changing one's thinking from having demands and expectations of how things should be, which can lead to disappointment, to having preferences and being okay with things not working out as preferred. This shift in mindset and attitude allows for greater peace of mind.

Napkin folding
Cloth napkins come in different sizes tailored for specific uses such as beverage, luncheon, or dinner napkins. Larger napkins are meant to catch more spillage from more food and drinks served. There are etiquette rules for using napkins like waiting for the host to unfold theirs first and folding it to just cover one's lap. The document describes different ways to fold napkins into decorative shapes like pyramids, bishops hats, candle rolls, fans, roses, birds of paradise, and for holding silverware.
Living a life of scripts
This document discusses how people live their lives according to "scripts" formed from pressures during childhood that are often reinforced unconsciously. It provides examples of common parental scripts and scripts in marriage. The author explains that these scripts can be identified and changed. The document recommends identifying injunctions and attributions from one's past, writing down current scripts, rewriting desired scripts, and committing to living according to the new scripts rather than past patterns. The overall message is that people can recognize and stop unhelpful scripts to gain more control over how they live.

This document summarizes two everyday issues: resealable cheese packaging and hidden lamp switches in hotel rooms. Resealable cheese packaging promises easy opening and closing, but often fails to reseal properly, frustrating users. Hidden lamp switches in hotel rooms are also frustrating because they are not where users expect them to be, on the base or cord of the lamp, forcing users to examine the lamp closely to find the switch. Both examples illustrate how product designs can contradict users' expectations and conceptual models of how things are supposed to work, leading to usability issues.
Self-Harm Alternatives – Over 130 Ideas for Use in Recovery
At the moment when a young person is overcome by an urge or need to self-harm, it can be very helpful for them to have a range of different strategies they can tap into to try and cope with the way they are feeling right now without actually inflicting harm on themselves.These resources contain in excess of 130 ideas which a young person could use as an alternative to self-harm.
These ideas were all suggested by former self-harmers.
These ideas are shared as a powerpoint file which can be used for information and training and are also presented in a separate handout designed to be shared with young people you’re working with. Different things work for different people at different times so there are a wide range of ideas here to try. It’s always worth having follow up conversations with the young person you’re working with to find out what’s worked and what hasn’t so they can refine their list and determine the best strategies to employ at the moment they’re overcome with the need to harm.

A - Z of relaxation
The document provides an A-Z guide of relaxation techniques. It suggests that aromatherapy, candles, bathing, exfoliation, herbal tea, imagination, journaling, laughter, meditation, napping, volunteering, planning ahead, quiet time, refreshing surroundings, sounds, therapy, unwinding on the sofa, walking, yoga and achieving a zen-like state of mind can all help with relaxation. A variety of relaxing activities are described ranging from scents, bath products, food and drinks to mindful practices and spending time in nature.
For a Better Life 2 (Law of the Seed)
The document discusses the "Law of the Seed" using the analogy of an apple tree producing many seeds despite only needing a few to grow more trees. It explains that in life, most "seeds" or attempts do not succeed, so one must be persistent in trying multiple times to achieve their goals, whether that's getting a job through many interviews, finding a good employee through many interviews, or selling something through talking to many people. It concludes that successful people understand this law and are not discouraged by failure, keeping a perspective that laws of nature are not personal and working within natural constraints rather than expecting the world to conform to one's preferences.
Think Big, Dream Big
1) The document provides advice for dreamers on how to turn their dreams into reality. It encourages dreamers to be more active rather than passive and to focus on details rather than just the overall picture.
2) Dreamers are advised to challenge themselves by noticing new details in familiar objects and surroundings. This helps shift one from being "an object at rest" to "an object in motion."
3) The document recommends dreamers speak and think in concrete, active language rather than vague generalities. Speaking precisely about plans and goals helps make dreams more achievable.
