Say the words out loud or write it down several times.
This type of exercise is part of cognitive therapy, which aims at changing the natural or instinctive reactions rather than understanding their causes. For example, the therapist might encourage you to find appropriate explanations for the behavior of others: that person who ignored you at the store has not done that because he isn’t like you, but because he did not observed you or was concerned about something else. Once you’ve caught the idea, you can use it alone, to automatically recognize the negative reactions and replace them with more constructive, positive and realistic ones.
