And what she noticed happening, and she's learned, I mean, even I think the first time she did it was like the six minute process. It was like nothing. But then she has learned since then. It's like in six minutes, what happens is she went from Confusion, I don't know if this was her language, but this is my language now, right? She went from confusion to clarity to creation.

First, she's just confusion, noise. Then she starts going, well, maybe what would I do about that? What could I do that would be healthy? So it started to turn into questions that were relevant for her. And then within just these few minutes, she's looking like, okay, well, here are some plans. This is what I could do.

And she was able to go back to bed at peace with the sense that, okay, I still know what the problems are, but I've worked through it. It's not just spinning in my head. What is she writing? What was she writing? Yes. What is she writing? Well, the prompt was something like, what's going on in your head? What is happening? So the prompt is quite a simple prompt. She taught me this too.

I've never heard anyone share this, and I love this. It's called instinctive elaboration. And what instinctive elaboration is, is that if you ask yourself a question or are asked a question, there is an involuntary mental process that takes place. You cannot not think about it, which is a pretty powerful phrase. And I think we've all experienced it.

Somebody asks you an interesting question and it just like hijacks the way that you were thinking and what you were thinking about. And so you can use this to your benefit by having good prompts. So after this, I started the following process. What, so what, now what? So every time I'm writing my journal, I say, okay, what is going on? And that's the free writing. That is just all the noise.

It doesn't matter. No judging. Maybe you plan on throwing it away if that helps. I don't care keeping it. I don't mind who reads it. I want the noise. So what? Now the prompt now is not what's going on, but like, well, what does it mean? You know, like, let's just try and look at that noise as if, let's imagine...

Imagine someone else showed me their writing and I'm looking at it and going, oh, I wonder what that says. What does that mean? And so you're just trying to now connect the dots a little bit. And then the now what, I have a really clear structure for this. I call it the one, two, three method. The highest priority item for the day, that's the one. You might spend two hours on that, ideally.
