Do you ever get anxious when you have an important speaking opportunity coming up?
You may dread it, thinking that you won't perform well or will get stuck and lose your train of thought. This is called negative anticipation, and it can be a powerful force that sets you up for failure.
Negative anticipation comes from the Latin words "anti, " meaning "before," and "capare," meaning "to take hold of'. It means to take hold of something beforehand and bring it into yourself with a negative slant.
This means that you are using your thoughts and imagination to visualize and emotionally experience something that hasn't happened yet, and you're putting a negative spin on it. To combat negative anticipation, you want to substitute it for positive anticipation. This means that you should constructively think about how you want to perform, the value you want to give, how you want to impact the other person, and how you want to feel in the situation.
