HOW TO CREATE CONFUSION - ONE WORD AT A TIME!

“BUT, BUT, BUT…”

Once upon a time, a wise therapist said:

“ ’But’ is a dirty word!”  (Yeah, I know what you’re thinking – ha ha – forget it.  We are talking one “t”!)

Let's face it, every time you use ‘but’ in a sentence you are negating what you just said and creating mental fog and confusion.

Think about it:

                   I like him, but…

                   I want to go but…

                   She’s nice but…

What in heavens name are you saying?

                   I like him but I really don’t like him?

                   I want to go but I really don’t want to go?

                   She’s nice but she isn’t nice?

YIKES!

How many times a day do you create emotional mush for yourself with this one?
