Tool Should Be Used By:   Coaches

Tool Description:  Based on the old saying "If you are pointing your finger at someone  else, you have three fingers pointing back at you!"

I have created a graphic organizer. The index finger points to the problem the client sees as outside of his/her control. The other three fingers pointing back are behaviors, thoughts, changes, etc. within the client's control that contribute to the problem situation. The thumb is slightly bent down overlapping the top of the middle finger (the top of the three pointing back). It serves to identify the overriding belief that must be changed. Clients write on the fingers and thumb. Clients can see at a glance a bigger picture and the part they play in it. They can use their own hand later as a reminder of the form and what they can do about the problem.
