For each negative thought, frame 3 counter-statements with evidence.

Your negative thought — if someone else thought it, would you agree?

Instead of "how to succeed?", ask "how to fail?" — then avoid the list.

Describe, Express, Specify, Consequence — a template to disarm any recurring quarrel.

Ask "why?" five times on a recurring fight's root — discover the real cause.

Per recurring meeting: "does it produce decision/action?" — if no, kill it.

State explicitly what you do not want in the output (words, styles, assumptions) to cut later editing.
