Have you entered a room and heard the critic inside say, “What am I doing here?” What if you decided, before you left for the event, how you were going to feel? Your intent is a major factor in what you experience, in any situation. When you expect to be nervous or feel uncomfortable, you are!
What you expect is a self fulfilling prophecy. You spend time to select just the right thing to wear and maybe practice what you are going to say. Great! Now take the time to select how you are going to feel before, during and after an event or date.
Take two or three minutes and ask yourself, “What do I want to feel when I get there?apostrophe “How do I want to feel when I meet someone new?apostrophe “How do I want to feel when I am talking people?apostrophe “How do I want to feel when I end the conversation?apostrophe “How do I want to feel after the event?apostrophe “What is the specific overall way you would like to feel?apostrophe
Now, here is the ASKing secret, take the answer from the last question, the way you want to feel through this sequence:
- Remember when you have felt the way you want to feel at the event, a specific time. Bring that event into your mind’s eye like a movie. Good.
- See yourself experiencing the specific occurrence from the past. Hear what positive self talk you have about feeling this way.
- Feel really, really feel that specific feeling.
- Now you have created the feeling you want in the present and can access it by just ASKing.
That was easy, wasn’t it?
