What the Tool Is For
In intimidating situations, when you find it difficult to express yourself or even connect with other people. These are moments when you “freeze,” become wooden or stiff, unable to express yourself in a natural, spontaneous way. Underlying this is an irrational sense of insecurity. The tool allows you to overcome the insecurity and be yourself.
What You’re Fighting Against
Insecurity is a universal but badly misunderstood human trait. We think we know what’s making us insecure—our appearance, level of education, or socio-economic status. In fact, there’s something deep inside us that is the cause of all insecurity. It’s called the Shadow—the embodiment of all our negative traits—and we’re terrified that someone will see it. As a consequence, we expend a lot of energy hiding it, which makes it impossible for us to be ourselves. The tool gives us a new way to deal with the problem of having a Shadow.
Cues to Use the Tool
1. Whenever you feel performance anxiety. This could be triggered by social events, confrontations, speaking in public.
2. Use the tool right before the event as well as during it.
3. A less-obvious cue would be when you’re anticipating the event and worrying about it.
