1. Take it one step at a time. Allow yourself a few moments to think before making decisions. Once you are thinking more clearly and weighing your options, then make a decision. 2. Identify triggers. Take time to reflect and identify situations that lead to impulsivity. Once you’re aware of these triggers, you can plan for them in advance and put strategies in place to help you stay focused and in control. 3. Find healthy outlets. Find hobbies or activities that help you express and manage your emotions in a healthy way. Examples include journaling, exercising, crafting, or participating in mindfulness activities. 4. Practice self-compassion. Speak to yourself in a constructive and supportive way when you have an impulse or make an impulsive decision. Remind yourself that it’s OK to make mistakes and that you can learn from them. 5. Focus on the present moment. Learn to become more aware of the present moment and your responses to it. If you are feeling overwhelmed, take a few deep breaths and focus on grounding yourself in the present moment.
