**[Scene opens in a cozy room; Stagnant Turnar is sitting on a couch, looking contemplative while sipping tea.]** **[Stagnant Turnar]:** (sighs) You know, I’ve been stuck in this cycle of self-sabotage for a while now. **[Friend]:** It’s common, Stagnant. What do you think is triggering it? **[Stagnant Turnar]:** I think it’s my fear of failure. I keep avoiding new opportunities because I’m scared… You know how it is! **[Friend]:** That makes sense. Breaking that cycle starts with self-awareness. Can you recognize those moments when it happens? **[Stagnant Turnar]:** Definitely! I notice it most when I’m about to take action. My brain just shuts down, and I talk myself out of it. **[Friend]:** The next step is to challenge those negative thoughts. What would you say to yourself instead? **[Stagnant Turnar]:** I’d remind myself that failure is part of growth, and it doesn’t define me. It’s just a stepping stone! **[Friend]:** Exactly! Let’s create some positive affirmations together to reinforce that mindset. How about, “I embrace challenges and learn from them”? **[Stagnant Turnar]:** Love it! It’s time for me to break this cycle once and for all. I’m ready! **[Friend]:** Awesome, let’s do this! Every step matters!
