F. Diminish Self Doubt

It is not unusual to have feelings of self-doubt, worthlessness, and devaluation when experiencing a negative tenure decision. To counteract these negative feelings, try using relaxation and imagery techniques to increase the frequency of positive, tranquil, and restorative mental states. They may help you decrease anxiety, which tends to fuel self-doubt. Engage in activities in which you can feel a sense of productivity-things concrete and practical.
