Lesson 5 of 6 · What feeds it, and what to stop adding

The one sentence

The smallest of the four, and the one you can act on tonight.

The move

Removing one feeder

10 minutes or less

Pick one: asking somebody, looking it up, replaying it, or checking again.
Tell one person, if there is one asking on your behalf, that you are going to stop asking for a while and why.
Decide what you will do instead in the ten seconds after the urge arrives.
Run it for a week without adding anything else.

If it does not work

If you slip and ask, that is expected and it is not the end of the week. Note it and carry on with the same feeder rather than starting over.

A specific plan works better than a good intention. Fill both halves in your own words.

When

I will

Put it in your calendar
