I learned a lot from Cadet pointing out my double negatives. It set me looking for some thoughts on language and how we process it, mainly because it took me a while to see the mistake on the double negative. I downloaded some books to my kindle app on it. I have always been aware of the Pink Elephant concept. There is much to read up on.:
How we process negatives or otherwise don't. That the mind sees negatives as mandates
How we use must, should, ought and others from our super ego, and the resistance that causes and how it is better to use more flexible words such as ,could' 'can' 'will' 'may' and of course my very favourite 'choose'
Depersonalisation in the use of nicknames, my WH called me 'darlin.'
Soothers, breaks and interrupts.
Suggestibles, and neg statements, seducers
There is lot to know, especially on advertising and marketing effects and it's impact on the mind. Come in handy for debunking my thoughts on food.
This is going to be a great adventure.
Thank you Cadet.........
