By using the simple phrase 'get out,' you can shift your focus from the imaginary world in your head to the real external world around you. This technique allows you to break free from dwelling on the past or worrying about the future by reminding yourself of the tangible reality you are part of. The phrase 'get out' serves as a powerful trigger to transition from the internal world to the external, helping you to take action and address the things you need to do. By associating these words with physical movements, like standing up or walking, you can quickly make this shift. Ultimately, embracing the idea of being two people – one living in the imaginary world and the other in the real world – enables you to starve the imaginary one of its power and actively choose to engage with the real world. This practical approach has the potential to significantly impact and solve longstanding issues in your life.
