Now that you know why it’s important to face your fears, you are ready to make your own mission plan! You and your parent will work together to make a plan just like Neil did.
Here are the steps to create a mission plan. You will also see how Neil created his own mission plan:
- Step 1: Choose the first fear that you will work on
- Step 2: Choose a specific mission plan goal with your parent
- Step 3: Brainstorm different steps for your mission plan
- Step 4: Using the anxiety scale, give each activity a fear rating 0-10
- Step 5: Order the steps from least to most scary
- Step 6: Choose a different reward or number of points for each
