Quote:

If I read the booklets, often we are ask to say what's wrong and after say how we would like it to be instead.




Exactly.

Examples:

I want to lose 800 lbs.

wrong objective: I am NOT really really fat (not stated in positive)
right objective: I am at my ideal weight and I feel great

I am broke and live under a bridge.

wrong objective: I DON'T have to beg for whiskey money every day
right objective: I have a steady job with a nice income


I really want to kill my significant other

wrong objective: I DON'T wish he died a slow, horrible death
right objective: My SO and I get along swimmingly, and have lots and lots of earth shatteringly blissful sex

or something like that.
