Choose the form of the destructor.  Gozur the Gozarian.

Choose your attitude, your response.

How do you see it the first time you experience difficulty with 
some aspect of this class, with some quantitative thinking, some
science or mathematics or technical challenge?  STEM.

Choose your attitude.  Do you habitually negatively reinforce?
Choose your stance.  Stands with a fist.  Will you be bullied by your
own self-talk and attitude?  Beaten down, knocked down?

Pretty Woman.  The negative stuff is easier to believe.  Ever notice that.

You can be so much more.

Vivian: People put you down enough, you start to believe it.

Edward Lewis: I think you are a very bright, very special woman.

Vivian: The bad stuff is easier to believe. You ever notice that?

Pretty Woman and the Roxette song and the departure, the separation.

Meant to be together, but not together.  Giving in to Don John.  Seeing
things the way Don John manipulated you to seeing them and rejecting
that which you were meant to be with and grow toward and shine forth
because of.  Rejecting your Hero, you are naive and misled Claudio.

Another Pretty Woman quote that can be related to Ghostbusters, but requires more of a stretch to make the connection.

  Shop assistant: Hello, can I help you?

  Vivian: I was in here yesterday, you wouldn't wait on me.

  Shop assistant: Oh.
  Vivian: You people work on commission, right?

  Shop assistant: Yeah.

  Vivian: Big mistake. Big. Huge. I have to go shopping now.

The idea of waiting.  Waiting on the arrival of insight, thinking
this is worth doing and its natural to wait, to have to be patient,
to realize that confusion must precede clarity.  Baby steps patience.

The commission, the reward you get for having the attitude that
this that is before you is worth your time and attention.
It will pay off in so many ways.  Don't say this is not for me.
Don't write this off as not of interest or not your thing.
Embrace it.  It will pay huge dividends, it will give you a great
commission!   It is a BIG MISTAKE to not be willing to wait
and to try and to take baby steps and have faith growth of
skill and understanding will occur.

Walter Mischel and the Marshmallow Test.
"testing whether kids could wait 20 minutes to get two marshmallows"
Self-Control, the master aptitude...

"In The Marshmallow Test, 
 I discuss what 'willpower' is and what it is not, 
 the conditions that undo it,
 and the consequences of having it and using it.
 
 I examine the implications of these findings 
 for rethinking who we are;
     what we can be;
          how our minds work; 
              how we can -- and can't -- control our impulses, 
                                              emotions and dispositions;
                  how we can change,
                      and how we can raise and educate our children. ... "

"Soon we veer off into how the findings relate to aspects of our own lives,
 from ... to ... and understanding our own vulnerabilities and strengths."

 CREMEAE

 "in between the stimulus and our response, there is a gap."

  Move from Stimulus Control to Self-Control is the goal.
  See the gap.
  Reappraise the stimulus...  See there is a gap.

  Dr. Peter Venkman covered with slime, getting slimed.
  That is the stimulus.  His response is to be negative.
  Dr. Raymond Stantz and then Dr. Egon Spengler hear of the event,
  they sense Venkman's negative response, but they reappraise it,
  see it as a positive, as "Great" because of actual physical contact.
  It feels slimy, it feels like a defeat, but it is a source of wonder
  and of joy, for it means they are learning, gaining experience,
  growing by facing the ghostly slimer phantasm.
