‘But I feel…’ or ‘But I don’t feel…’ ‘But I feel tired so I won’t do it.’ ‘But I feel lacking in motivation therefore I can’t start.’ ‘But I feel concerned that bad things might happen.’ The list is endless. Basically the Chimp is going on its feelings and then suggesting how you should act or what will happen because of those feelings. Again, the Human may agree with the feelings that the Chimp is offering when they are logical and wise. For example, if you have come down with a flu bug then it is probably wise to say, ‘But I feel unwell so I had better not start digging the garden.
