3. Your miniscript patterns
Think of some recent
situations in which you
responded to stress by
feeling bad. In your
imagination, re-play each
situation up to the point
where you just began
experiencing the bad feeling.
4. Your miniscript patterns
You don’t have to re-play the
bad feeling itself. For each
situation, check answers to
the following questions.
• What driver did you go
through?
• What position on the
miniscript did you go to
first?
5. Your miniscript patterns
• What bad feeling did you
experience there?
• Did you shift to a second or
third position on the
miniscript? If so, again
register what bad feelings
you experienced?
6. Your miniscript patterns
After checking several
situations, determine
whether you have one or
more typical patterns of
movement around the
miniscript.
7. Your miniscript patterns
Do you want to change
any of these patterns? If
so, you can make changes
at any point. It may take
some initial practice.
8. Your miniscript patterns
Get used to detecting your
own driver clues as you
show them. With this
ability, catch the driver
behavior at the instant you
begin doing it.
9. Your miniscript patterns
By adult decision, step out
of the driver. Instead,
behave in a way which fits
the corresponding allower.
If you miss the driver
clues, you may go through
the driver and being
feeling bad.
10. Your miniscript patterns
If so, simply choose to
change the way you feel.
In place of the bad feeling,
substitute a good one of
your choice. You can do
this at any time.
11. Your miniscript patterns
Each time you choose to
follow an allower instead
of a driver, you help
extinguish your miniscript
pattern in future. You do
the same each time you
choose to feel good
instead of feeling a racket.
12. Your miniscript patterns
Do you find it difficult to
believe that the third and
the fourth myths are really
myths? Many people do
on first acquaintance.
13. Your miniscript patterns
If you are one of them, do
a pencil and paper
exercise. Simply write
down any way in which
you believe one person
could make another
person feel bad by what
they say to that person.
14. Your miniscript patterns
If you think you have found
such a way, ask yourself
another question : Could the
person spoken to have
chosen to feel any other
feeling? If so, then the
speaker could not have been
making the other person feel
in a particular way.
15. Your miniscript patterns
In this exercise, we are not
talking of physical assault. If
somebody hits me with a
brick, it is obvious that they
are making me feel bad. But
words aren’t bricks.
