"[Focus on what is good, helpful and desired and distract from what is not good, not helpful and not desired = compartmentalize thoughts, emotions and activities to set times and places; experiences:-] One of the best ways to compartmentalize is to run your life from a time allotted plan. In that way everything gets done at a specific time, place, with the right people, etc., and not otherwise. Then at each time attention can be focused on the appropriate thing without fear that any issue - including for instance worry-fear-problems - will not be addressed at the appropriate-planned time." - Seymour@imagi-natives.com
