The program consists of messages about how to do things. In compiling the script matrix, we phrase these as sentences beginning: “Here is how to…”. Each of us learn many thousands of program messages from parents and parent figures.

The program consists of
messages about how to do
things. In compiling the script
matrix, we phrase these as
sentences beginning: “Here is
how to…”. Each of us learn
many thousands of program
messages from parents and
parent figures.

4. Program
For instance, here is how
to….
– Count to 10.
– Write your name.
– Make porridge.
– Tie your shoes.
– Be a man.
– Be cute.
– Come top of class.
– Hide your feelings.

5. Program
As with counter script, we
use most of our program
messages in a constructive,
positive way. But we may
also carry around some
negative programs. For
instance, a boy may learn
from his father’s modeling:
“ Here is how to work hard,
overstress yourself and die
young.”

6. Program
These negative program
messages might be shown
more accurately in the
matrix diagram as coming
from the contaminated
Adult in the Parent, and
being filed away in the
contaminated Adult of the
child.

7. Program
Many of the “here is how”
in the program might
better be seen as forming
part of the content of the
little professor (A1) of the
parent and being stored in
A1 of. the child, rather than
in A2.
