Seventeen seconds
A little exercise with seventeen statements. Seventeen moments of your time for you
to think about how you feel, how you are thinking and to help you improve your
life experience on a daily basis.
This exercise gives seventeen general statements which
apply to every single human being on the planet, so this must include you.
The level you can agree with these
statements will bring you towards feeling good about yourself. If the
statements bring up negative emotions within you, this will indicate you have
areas which you can improve.
At the end of the general statements
are examples of seventeen specific Feel
Good Statements. Feel free to
write your own.
As you read through the list, focus
purely on the list. Make yourself comfortable. Find your favourite spot, your
most comfortable chair, a lovely warm drink and allow yourself 17 seconds.
17
seconds of pure focus on yourself will help bring clarity, focus, inspired
ideas and an improved feeling of wellbeing and confidence.
