At which point did the problem occur? How did I perceive it? What did I do? How did I react?

Why did the problem occur? What was the difficulty?

 

  • Emotional evaluation

How did I react? Did I put myself down or did I develop compassion towards myself?

What can I do to prepare myself for this, in order to solve the problem?
