particular kids on this block," or "Well, this one guy screwed up, but I guess I 
can't say that's true for the rest of them." 
 
Now bring the next two fingers together and examine the restrictive words 
"should, shouldn't, must, can't." If someone tells you (s)he can't do something, 
what signal is (s)he sending to the brain? A limiting one that makes sure, in fact, 
that (s)he can't do it. If you ask people WHY they can't do something or WHY they 
have to do something they don't want to do, they usually have no shortage of 
answers. The way to break the cycle is to say, "What would happen if you were 
able to do that?" Asking that creates a possibility they were previously unaware of 
and gets them to consider the positive and negative by-products of the activity. 
 
In addition, you could ask, "What prevents me from doing this now?" and 
thereby become clear about what specifically you need to change. 
 
Now go to your middle fingers, which stand for verbs, and if someone says, 
"I feel depressed," you need to ask them "How, specifically, are you depressed?" or 
"What, specifically, is causing you to feel that way?"
