7 QUESTIONS TO MOVE INTO ACTION

1. What do I think about that (an event, problem, or situation)?
- Be honest about your attitude and interpretation of what happened.
2. How does thinking that way lead me to feel?
- Understand how thinking that about it way affects your feelings about it.
3. Feeling that way—what do I want?
- Learn that your feelings guide your choices even if you pretend otherwise.
4. If what I want is not to feel that way, then am I willing to change my thinking to change my feeling?
- Or am I stuck because I need the bad feeling or pain to or for—
act out, avoid, claim to know better, demand, ego satisfaction, emotional blackmail, escape, feel superior, get rescued, hide behind a mask, hide behind phoniness, keep the drama going, keep power over others, maintain pride, manipulate, motivate revenge, pride, procrastinate, quit, sell out, stay slippery, stay lazy, sympathy, or some other payoff?
- Or am I stuck because I am so identified with the feeling, pain, or problem that I’ll lose my identity or sense of self if I surrender it?
- Do I need it more than it needs me?
5. What do I do about the way I feel?
- What am I sacrificing to do that?
- Is doing it worth the sacrifice?
6. If feeling that way is healthy for me, then what work am I willing to do to get what I want?
- Will I problem-solve and work on a solution or just lazily whine, blame, and damn?
- How responsible for my life do I want to be?
7. What will I do to cope if work won’t get me what I want?
- Will I accept it peacefully or whine, blame, and damn until I make it worse and get myself more problems and conflicts?
- Will I move on if I can’t fix it?
- Is spending my time and energy on what I can fix better than whining about what I cannot fix?
