C.R.A.P. stands for Conflicts, Resistances, Anxieties, Procrastination and any other problem you think you have.

Here are the instructions: from today- On a single sheet of paper write down at least 2 of your limiting beliefs, worries, fears, weaknesses, doubts - real or imaginary.

Now relax as deeply as possible as you gaze at the paper in front of you. Don’t judge anything you see; just observe it like an object in the room. As you gaze, yawn, slowly stretch, and if you are comfortable doing so gently stroke your hands and arms (it stimulates areas in the brain relating to self confidence, so this is particularly effective if you have low self-esteem). You should immediately notice a reduction in intensity. As you look at each item on your list, ask yourself: are these negative thoughts REALLY true? Are they happening right now? Most of the time you'll see that they are just memories.

Next, repeat this phrase as you look at the items that aren't really true: "These problems are not real; they are memories from the past projected on the future." For those that are true, write down 2 things you can do today to lessen that problem, and repeat this exercise for 7 days.

Put your Crap Board on the wall where you can see it regularly while at work. BUT DO NOT THROW IT AWAY! If you do, your unconscious mind will start to ruminate on all that negativity. When it's on a sheet of paper, there is a neural “disconnect,” as if your brain knows that your crap is safely tucked away and on hold. Some people believe that writing down their "crap" will make it manifest in the world. Nothing can be farther from the truth.

When new negative thoughts and feelings come up, quickly jot them on your crap board. Each day you will notice less negative thoughts. Remember: old memories are always "there" in your brain, but you don't have to listen to them or believe they are true. You can even talk to them and tell them to shut up! They usually will. Then focus on your deepest values
