WEEK 2 • DAYS 8-14

Pattern Breaking Workbook

Interrupt the Patterns That Run You

Day 8: Root Cause Analysis
Pick one major pattern. Trace it back to its origin. When did you first adopt this survival mechanism?
Day 9: The Payoff
Every pattern served you once. What did this pattern protect you from? What need did it meet? Be honest.
Day 10: The Cost
What does this pattern cost you NOW? Relationships? Health? Peace? Money? Career? Write it out.
Day 11: Awareness Practice
For 24 hours, notice when this pattern shows up. What triggers it? What happens right before? Log 3-5 instances.
Patterns don't die overnight. They soften, crack, and eventually transform. You're doing deep work.
WEEK 2 (CONTINUED)

Pattern Breaking Workbook

Day 12: The Interrupt
Design a specific interrupt. When you notice the pattern starting, what will you do INSTEAD? Be specific.
Day 13: Practice & Fail
Try your interrupt. You'll probably slip back into the pattern. That's OK. What did you learn from the attempt?
Day 14: Week Reflection
What pattern is starting to loosen? What are you learning about how you operate? What's becoming possible?
Patterns don't die overnight. They soften, crack, and eventually transform. You're doing deep work.
