Nothing is more harmful to a positive creative attitude than fears, uncertainties and doubts (FUDS); yet most people let FUDS control their lives. It is much more productive to learn to control your FUDS, to transform destructive, negative attitudes into a new, positive reality. Tick-Tock is a very powerful exercise that is designed to help you overcome your FUDS.
- Zero in on and write down those negative thoughts that are preventing you from reaching your goal. Write them under “Tick.”
- Sit quietly and examine the negatives. Learn how you are irrationally twisting things and blowing them out of proportion.
- Substitute an objective, positive thought for each subjective, negative one. Write those under “Tock.”
