What Is the Pattern Recognition Collection™?
The Pattern Recognition Collection™ is a growing library of downloadable self-reflection workbooks designed to help you recognise recurring patterns in your thoughts, behaviours, relationships and everyday life.

When the same mistakes keep happening
Sometimes the problem is not that you do not know better. It is that you keep making the same mistake, even when you promised yourself you would do things differently. This workbook helps you recognise the recurring patterns connected to those mistakes and where you can interrupt them.
I said I would not do this again.
Why do I keep making the same choice?
I knew how this ended last time.
How have I ended up back here again?
When the same mistakes keep repeating, it can be difficult to see the smaller thoughts, behaviours and choices that are leading you back to the same outcome.
Pattern recognition helps you identify what keeps leading you back to the same mistakes and where you can make a different choice.
That is where you start making different mistakes, instead of repeating the same ones.
When every direction starts looking blocked

Untangle the invisible
Rather than looking at each mistake as a separate event, this volume helps you recognise when the same patterns of thinking, behaviour and choices keep showing up.
By looking at the pattern more clearly, you can begin to notice when you are repeating familiar responses, recognise where you currently sit within that pattern and see what changing it could look like.
At Grid Society, we call these recurring patterns Grey Grid Roundabouts™.
One thought at a time
Focusing on one recurring pattern at a time makes it easier to see what you are doing now, recognise the work in progress and identify what the pattern looks like when you have moved beyond it.
“I won’t do that again” starts sounding familiar...
Our Grey Voices workshop brought us here...
It started in our Workshops
The ideas behind this workbook grew from our Confront the Grey Voices™ workshop, delivered to counsellors, students and professionals across different settings.
During the workshops, we noticed how often past mistakes became evidence for present-day Grey Voices™. A decision, mistake or outcome from years ago could still be pulled into someone’s internal conversation today.
Grey Voices™ need evidence to leverage from, and our mistakes can provide plenty of it. One mistake becomes “You always do this.” One poor decision becomes “You never learn.”
Again and again, we saw how something that had already happened could continue influencing the way people spoke to themselves long afterwards.
Built around the Grid Society™ concept
The collection is built around the Universal Grid™, our signature Grid Society™ concept. A concept that we have successfully used with counsellors, educators, colleges, universities and professionals.
The Grey Grid™, Green Grid™ and Orange Grid™ provide three different perspectives for exploring your thinking, making recurring patterns easier to recognise and understand.
From workshops to the Pattern Recognition framework
We wanted to take what we were seeing in our workshops and create something people could continue using afterwards. Volume 6 grew from recognising how easily past mistakes can become part of a recurring internal conversation.
Rather than focusing on why someone made the mistake, we wanted to help people recognise the patterns that can develop around it: the thoughts, behaviours and responses that keep showing up and can lead back to familiar outcomes.
That became part of the Pattern Recognition framework, turning those recurring patterns into a structured, downloadable workbook people can return to whenever they notice themselves entering the same Grey Grid Roundabout™ again.
3 ways to use Volume 6:
The Breaking Cycles Workbook
How people use the workbook
#1
4 a.m. Roundabout check-in
Use it when you are actually in the spiral. When an old mistake starts replaying and the questions begin going round and round, open the 4 a.m. section to recognise the Roundabout you are on and start looking for the nearest exit.
#2
Journal after the mistake
Use the journalling sections when you want to look back at a mistake without simply replaying it. Write down what happened, recognise the thoughts and behaviours that showed up and use the prompts to see the pattern more clearly.
#3
Engross yourself in the journey
Move through the Grey, Green and Orange thinking sections and see the same pattern from three different positions. Read, relate and download your thoughts as you go, giving you space to recognise where you are and where you want your thinking to go next.
The Pattern Recognition Collection continues...
The collection begins...
The Pattern Recognition Collection™ is a growing collection of practical self-reflection workbooks built around Grid Society’s Universal Grid™ concept.
Designed for real life, the collection can go wherever you do.
Open a workbook on your phone at a café, take it with you on your tablet while travelling, use it on your computer at home or print it when you want to work with pen and paper.
New titles will continue to join the collection, bringing more patterns to explore, more internal conversations to recognise and more workbooks to discover.
The question is not whether another volume is coming. It is whether the pattern holding you back will be next.
