1. Performance should be seen in the larger context of life experience, meaning and self-perception and is limited when looked at primarily in terms of sensory input and response, thought (beliefs) and behavior.

2. Performance is an every day, all day issue of life for everyone including all interactions with others and within ourselves.

3, Performance and social anxiety are dynamic phenomenon, which originate with negative self-beliefs and images, mostly unconscious and internalized earlier in life. These perceived thoughts are silently projected out into the minds of the observers (audience or others) and are then erroneously experienced as external.

4, The three most important things are follow-up, follow-up, and more follow-up. No matter what kind of shift or reprocessing goes on in session, it is no guarantee of improvement in performance. The follow-up session gives the chance to see what has shifted and what hasn't.

5, Performance in front of an audience, whether on the sports field or acting stage, requires the capacity to "adaptively dissociate" or "creatively dissociate".
