           And trust me when you do it again and again,         negatively about me (I know – How do you
          your physiology just changes, test it and have        know? Are you an astrologer?)
          a great shift!                                         A pattern of assuming other’s feelings. We
                                                                often delve into such things unconsciously,
           3. Use tools for overcoming negative states          without our awareness. Whenever you find
                                                                yourself in the loop of these patterns, challenge
           Criticism, feedback, experiences, anything
                                                                yourself,
          can lead anyone to negative states and it
          starts impacting our daily performance.                How do you know? What would happen if
                                                                you stopped assuming and focused on your
           What if I tell you, that we all can overcome
                                                                breathing?
          these negative states using mind techniques?

                                                                 Pattern     of     Generalization:     Universal
           Do these simple exercises:
                                                                Quantifiers
           • Shake off your negative state by jumping off
                                                                 Think when you say: They never understand
          or rubbing the body
                                                                (Never? Are their time when they did?)
           • Visualize a circle in front of yourself
                                                                 We often generalize experiences, and then box
           • Think about the time when you have felt
                                                                them in good or bad. We take one experience
          powerful and See the image of you or your role
                                                                and we label teams/people. And we do all this
          model in that state
                                                                very unconsciously/without our awareness.
           • Let that build, means, see it, hear the sounds,    But is it helpful all the time, we are humans
          and feel that happening, now step inside this         and not objects, we will behave differently at
          circle and feel the sensations in your body!          different times, depending on our emotions/
           • Let that happen and observe the magic in           experiences?
          your body.                                             So next time, when you label self/team/
                                                                spouse/member based on one experience,
           State management is pivotal for success.             challenge self,  is it so? Are  there times when
          NLP techniques like anchoring, visual squash,         you have done the opposite? Are there times
          and submodality shifts enable the creation of         when they did understand?
          desired mental states on demand, fostering             Unstuck yourself from underlying assumptions
          optimal performance and resilience.                   and feelings. Challenge negative thoughts by
                                                                questioning their origins and consequences.
