Which workbook is for you? Recognise your thoughts, behaviours, and Emotional Patterns
Updated: Sep 27
Sometimes you know something keeps happening, but you have not quite named the pattern yet.
You might be comparing yourself to your friends, struggling to say no, overanalysing messages after being ghosted or constantly putting yourself down.
That is why we created the Grid Society Pattern Recognition Collection™, a growing collection of workbooks designed to help you recognise recurring patterns in your thoughts, behaviours and everyday life.
In this post, we are making it easy to find the workbook that speaks to what you are experiencing right now.
Read the patterns, see what you recognise and find your volume.
VOL 1
Do you recognise these comparison patterns?
You wake up feeling heavy, like you will never catch up.
You compare yourself to your friends almost every day.
Someone else's success makes you feel worse about your own life.
You beat yourself up late at night about where you should be.
You are tired of having the same conversation with yourself.
Do these patterns feel familiar? Then this workbook is for you
VOL 2
Do you recognise these people-pleasing and boundary patterns?
1. You say yes even when you already know you want to say no.
2. You feel guilty when you put your own needs ahead of someone else's.
3. You avoid setting a boundary because you are worried about how the other person will react.
4. You keep making yourself available even when you do not have the time or energy.
5. You tolerate things that bother you because speaking up feels harder than letting them go.

VOL 3
Do you recognise these ghosting dating patterns?
You replay conversations over and over, searching for clues you may have missed.
You assume a delayed reply means something has gone wrong.
You keep checking your phone, hoping the next message will finally give you peace of mind.
You rewrite texts because you worry how they will be interpreted.
You struggle to separate what actually happened from the story your mind has created.
Do these patterns feel familiar? Then this workbook is for you
VOL 4
Do you recognise these inner critic patterns?
Constantly criticise yourself, even when you have done your best.
Find it difficult to accept compliments or acknowledge your achievements.
Focus on your mistakes while overlooking your progress.
Feel like you are never good enough, no matter what you accomplish.
Speak to yourself more harshly than you would ever speak to someone else.
Do these patterns feel familiar? Then this workbook is for you
VOL 4: I always put myself down
Make time for your thoughts, behaviours and emotional patterns
Recognising your thoughts, behaviours and emotional patterns does not have to become another big task on your list.
Use your workbook for a five-minute check-in when you wake up, take it with you for the journey somewhere, or turn it into dedicated café time with a coffee, matcha and your thoughts.
