Fictional example: Quinn kept one commitment, while Lee still feels uncertain.
Use an ordinary or fictional example, with a clinician when appropriate. Review can examine actions and impact without demanding equal emotional progress.

Use the fictional example below or an ordinary situation of your choosing. Keep identifying details out of shared copies.
2. Try the practice
Compare a recent agreement with what happened and identify what needs acknowledgment, revision, or independent support.

Generate at least two interpretations or options. Mark what you know, what you are guessing, and what remains outside your control.
4. Decide together
