Book excerpt: From the Preface: My goal in this revised and updated edition of It's Not as Bad as It Seems is to offer skills which you can use to make healthier choices, to have more control over how you think, feel, and act, and to generally develop what Edward Garcia, a therapist in Georgia, once called emotional muscle. Since the earlier editions of this book, I have come to think of myself as a coach or personal trainer for emotional muscle. Getting our thinking in shape does not require mumbo jumbo, psychobabble, or years and years of endless discussions of childhood events. Rather, it is a process just like getting our bodies in shape that requires skills and practice. Now that I have been working in the field of psychology and therapy for more than twenty years, I am convinced more than ever that the road to emotional muscle, wellness, contentment, and happiness can be found in the tools offered in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) which is the foundation for this book. If you are ready to get in shape and create emotional muscle, then I have made every effort in this edition to offer you the training and equipment to do so. You will learn about those colorful sharks that swim around in our heads and largely cause emotional upset and behavioral problems (for example, procrastination, overeating, drinking too much, not exercising, and so on). More importantly, you will learn how to put those sharks in their place and take charge of your thinking, feeling, and behavior to achieve greater happiness and effectiveness in daily living. You can learn to be your own therapist in order to cope more effectively with daily stress. You will be presented with examples which illustrate just how the change process works within therapy. And perhaps best of all, you can learn how to empower yourself in many ways and stop being a victim of your past as you learn that today you can control your outlook, your thinking, and your beliefs about yourself, others, and the world. So, now it's time for you to get started. I wish you the best of success as you get your thinking in shape and develop your new emotional muscle.
