Hi John, Thank you for a very interesting paper. When we move into uncharted waters, we cannot guarantee a successful outcome. We allow the fear of consequences to deter us from taking action. We hesitate because we view it as too difficult, involving too great a risk, or likely to expose our vulnerability. But, all change involves an element of risk. Negative self-talk is so harmful. But, in order to deal with it, we must first be able to recognise the damaging things that we are saying to ourselves. I enjoyed reading your paper. Kindest regards Alan
