The Acknowledgement Exercise:
Step 1: Get a notecard or piece of paper, and something to write on it with
Step 2: Write down all your fears about the final/test/paper/presentation/life
Step 3: Take it to a private place, and lay the paper on the floor. Sit on your knees (if you can) and stare at the paper for a few seconds, just taking it in. When you’re ready repeat the following words: “I am acknowledging I’m afraid. I am accepting my feelings as valid. I am not broken or crazy for feeling these fears”
Step 4: Tear the piece of paper up and throw the piece away. Repeat the following words out loud or to yourself: “I am giving myself permission to succeed. Fears, you do not control me. I am strong, I am alive and I can do this.”
