Great article. ““I choose to start this task with a small, imperfect step. I’ll feel terrific and have plenty of time for play!”” – reminds us that starting is often the most important step and we shouldn’t deprive ourselves of fun!

Thank you for posting this great article that made me see how much I underestimated the power of positive self talk . Now I have the producer’s motto written in Red and plastered on my desk and its effect is magical. Everytime I dislike a task I read them and it’s feels like i’m only exagerating its difficulty. The trick is to actually start applying this tool rather than putting it off ( which is the reason why we’re all reading this post , right ?) . Thanks again , Mr.Passuello .

Self talk can definitely help us to finally do something. Whatever decision we make in life is mostly a “YES” or “NO” decision, yet we are having difficulties to make the first step.

If we have to go to the Gym to loose some unnecessary pounds the only thing we have to do is to say YES to go to the gym.

Quit drinking? Say NO to drinking.

In theory it is so easy, but we have to “suffer through” those moments when doing nothing is much more convenient at the present moment, but we all have to pay the price for it later.

Action creates solution. So, the NIKE is right: Just do it.

For those not familiar with Seinfeld’s Chain, check out this article: Seinfeld’s Chain.

Thanks for the suggestion, Fier! I wholeheartedly agree with you — which means that I should take Seinfeld’s chain out of my Someday/Maybe list and actually use it!
