Self-control
Reprogram negative statements
from The Now Habit: A Strategic Program for Overcoming Procrastination and Enjoying Guilt-Free Play by Neil A. Fiore
How to Apply This
- ** Replace "have to" and "should" messages with a language of choice and commitment.**
Instead of saying, "I have to do this" or "I should do this," try to use phrases like "I choose to do this" or "I decide to do this." - ** Practice saying no.**
Start by practicing saying no in a direct and mature manner. You may use assertive language when doing this. For example, “No, I’ll need time to think about that,” or “No, I am not as quick as you, and I want time to give it the thoughtful consideration it deserves.”
