If you can remember, worry, or tie your shoe, you can
succeed.
As you will see later, the method to be used consists of
creative mental picturing, creatively experiencing through
your imagination, and the formation of new automatic
reaction patterns by "acting out" and "acting as if."
I often tell my patients that "If you can remember,
worry, or tie your shoe, you will have no trouble applying
this method." The things you are called upon to do are
simple, but you must practice and "experience." Visualizing,
creative mental picturing, is no more difficult than
what you do when you remember some scene out of the
past, or worry about the future. Acting out new action
patterns is no more difficult than "deciding," then following
through on tying your shoes in a new and different
manner each morning, instead of continuing to tie them
in your old "habitual way," without thought or decision.
