The Four Step Method

a cast iron way to become a positive thinker.

Choose your own thoughts. Don't let anyone else choose them for you. - David Lawrence Preston

Negative thinking can quickly spiral out of control and destroy your confidence if you allow it. This is where The Four Step Method – a simple technique for becoming aware of disempowering thoughts – comes in. It's quickly learned and easily applied and, with practice, soon becomes second nature.

The four steps are:

1. Be mindful.
2. Stop disempowering thoughts.
3. Replace them with empowering thoughts.
4. Keep going until it becomes automatic.

The Four Step Method is quite simply the most effective single technique for building self-confidence.

Avoid destructive thinking. Improper negative thoughts sink people. A ship can sail around the world many, many times, but let just enough water get into the ship and it will sink. Just so with the human mind. Let enough negative thoughts or improper thoughts get into the human mind and the person sinks just like a ship. - Alfred A. Montapert
