Study Notes

Countering

Countering involves replacing distorted self-statements with truthful affirmations.
Example of a distorted belief: "I must be available to everyone or I'm unfair."
Corresponding countering statement: “I’m willing to help, but I don’t have the time.”

Modeling

Modeling entails imitating individuals who exhibit desired behaviors.
Aligning thoughts and actions with role models can facilitate personal growth.
A teacher's example: "I’d be happy to help, but my schedule is full."

Stretching

Stretching involves stepping outside comfort zones to explore new methods or ideas.
It should be a gradual process adopted in manageable stages.
Initially refuse smaller requests from acquaintances, progressing to friends to build confidence.
Sudden stretching may lead to feeling overwhelmed or negatively affecting relationships.

Praying

Praying is a form of reflection or meditation that helps in understanding communication from a higher power.
It encourages openness to feedback and fosters humility for personal growth.
Instead of reacting defensively to criticism, prayer can provide the perspective to learn and improve.
