00:00:00,450 --> 00:00:05,340
Sometimes the answer will be obvious when we ask ourselves what we are thinking.

2
00:00:05,790 --> 00:00:08,500
Other times it won't be immediately apparent.

3
00:00:08,910 --> 00:00:12,090
Here are some tips for figuring out what we're thinking.

4
00:00:12,780 --> 00:00:18,450
Keep in mind that the thoughts may be about the past, present or future past.

00:00:18,450 --> 00:00:21,210
I sounded like an idiot present.

6
00:00:21,210 --> 00:00:23,790
I'm blowing this interview future.

7
00:00:23,790 --> 00:00:26,640

place to think for a moment, closing your eyes and visualizing what just happened, taking a few slow

10
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:43,650
breaths.

11
00:00:46,260 --> 00:00:52,200
Be aware that the thoughts might come as impressions or images rather than words.

12
00:00:52,210 --> 00:01:00,660
For example, imagining losing your train of thought and staring blankly at your audience, picturing

00:01:00,660 --> 00:01:07,500
having an accident while driving, having a vague sense of being somehow inadequate.
