Cognitive Control Strategies Guard Your Mind/Heart Thought Stopping Cognitive Restructuring Positive Affirmations Task-Relevant Self Instruction We use language to communicate our ideas and emotions to others and, just as importantly, to articulate our thoughts and feelings to ourselves. Employ the cognitive control strategies of thought stopping, cognitive restructuring, positive affirmations, and task-relevant self-instruction The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings, by changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives. - William James (1842-1910)
