You can’t control what happens to you. You can control what happens next.
Something happens. You react. And by the time you notice, the words are already out, the door is already shut, the story is already telling itself.
Most people spend years running the same painful loop without ever seeing it. Pain hits. We bottom out. We look for an escape and reach for a behavior that brings relief. The relief feels good, briefly. Then the consequences arrive and deliver us right back to the pain. Choose Your Response calls this cycle the Pain Wheel, a pattern first encountered in addiction recovery work but one that turns up everywhere: in marriages, in workplaces, in families, and in the private stories we rehearse about ourselves.
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
The pain of a hard life event is not a choice. But the suffering we construct on top of it, the story, the replay, the verdict, is built one reaction at a time. And between what happens to you and what you do next there is a gap. Everything you care about is decided there.
In this book, you will learn how to:
- See the six-station Pain Wheel that drives your reactions, and find where your own pattern lives on it
- Separate the pain you cannot avoid from the suffering you build on top of it
- Widen the gap between trigger and response with a practiced pause
- Take back the only two things you control: your actions and your attitudes
- Question the story your brain tells when it locks onto a problem
- Step down from the judge's bench and stop prosecuting old wrongs
- Choose who you are becoming, so drift does not choose for you
Drawing on decades of counseling experience, recovery wisdom, and research on stress, emotion, and habit, Choose Your Response pairs plain explanation with real stories and exercises you can start the same day. No willpower lectures. No pretending things do not hurt. Just a clear map of the pattern and six learnable practices for breaking it.
If you are tired of running the same loop, this is the way off the wheel. Get your copy today.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
