Annoying Co-Worker
Contrasting Co-Worker
Situation: I share an office with someone whom I can hardly stand to be
around. She doesn’t have a nice thing to say about much of anything and she wants
to talk all the time. She doesn’t enjoy her job, and she treats me like I’m
foolish when I want to do my work. I wish she’d either quit or get fired. Life is
too short to have to spend so much time with someone so unpleasant. Here’s how
you feel about this situation right now:
Resulting Desires:
I want to work with people who are nice to be around. I want to feel good when
I'm at work.
Your Present
Resulting Emotions again are: I feel
irritation, I feel blame, I feel anger.
To change how you
feel about the situation by your deliberate effort to change your thoughts to
align with your desire (as written above) here are some new thoughts to think:
- I’ve
learned to really focus when I’m at work.
- Because
I’m really focussing, I’m getting a lot of work done
- I
don’t know what is really bothering her
- She does
have a nice smile
- I’m
sure that she’d like to feel better at work to
Your Result – is that
you are now thinking thoughts that make you feel better and consequently you
draw into your life more positive experiences.
Not working in a job you enjoy!
Contrasting Job Situation:
I get paid pretty well, compared to
other jobs around but I don’t look forward to going to work. I’ve been doing
pretty much the same thing for a long time and I don’t feel stimulated at all.
No-one seems to notice what I do unless I make a mistake. The day goes by so
slowly and then I have to turn around and do it all again the next day
Resulting Desires: I
want more exciting, stimulating work. I want to look forward to going to work.
I want to feel eager about my job.
Your Present
Resulting Emotions (from above): I feel boredom, I feel pessimism.
To change how you
feel about the situation by your deliberate effort to change your thoughts to
align with your desire (as written above) here are some new thoughts to think:
- When I did into a task I can enjoy it.
- Some things I enjoy more than others.
- Sometimes I make fun games out of tasks.
- I enjoy improving my method of
accomplishing tasks.
- I think I’ll try that regarding more of my tasks.
- I’m going to watch for way I can be of
value.
Your Result – is that
you are now thinking thoughts that make you feel better and consequently you
draw into your life more positive experiences.
Not working in the dream career yet!
Contrasting Co-Worker
Situation: I’ve wanted to be an actress ever since I was a little girl.
I took some classes and found out that I’m pretty good at
it. I get some acting work from time to time, but nothing exciting, and nothing
that I really want. It’s hard. There are so many people applying for the same
work that I am, that it seems hopeless. Maybe I should just forget about it and
go get a real job. I feel disappointed, I
feel discouraged.
Resulting Desires: I
want to get some great acting jobs. I want a job where I’ll be recognised as a
good actress. I want to get some jobs that will lead to more jobs.
Your Present
Resulting Emotions (from above): I
feel disappointed, I feel discouraged.

feel about the situation by your deliberate effort to change your thoughts to
align with your desire (as written above) here are some new thoughts to think:
- I’m
getting some acting work
- I’m
gathering experiences
- I’m
getting clearer about the work I really want
- I do
get to meet really interesting people.
- I’ve
come a long way
- I’ve
had some really good auditions.
- I love
the feeling of a really good audition.
Resulting Desires: I
want to get some great acting jobs. I want a job where I’ll be recognised as a
good actress. I want to get some jobs that will lead to more jobs.
