Thinking tip (Think one step ahead): Follow the chain: start from what happened and use each “if” rule in turn. Thinking ahead: asking “what if?”, imagining what follows, thinking of others, reading the rules first, waiting a moment. Acting on impulse: acting without thinking, ignoring warnings, only thinking of now, speaking in anger.
