Tips for Extending your Tolerance Control:

1. Prep4Best: Decide ahead of time what strategy

you will use to help you stay in the

Growth Zone when you start to feel prickly:

▪ You could use self-talk – remind yourself:

“This is not real danger! My brain is tricking me!”

▪ You could think of Flexi Fox: will you find this

hard forever?

▪ Will this last forever? What is the maximum time this

unpleasant feeling will last?

Is there anything good you could focus on?

2.Focus on the goal ahead: imagine life if you achieved that

goal. Feel the feeling you would get if you achieved that goal.

3. Now practise! It will take LOTS of practice to be able to do

this more easily.
