• the beliefs that are creating the situation

• the experiences that are reinforcing the beliefs, i.e., creating certainty in the beliefs

by asking:

(a) What belief might someone have in order to experience (situation)?

(b) How would they prove that belief is true?

(c) What other belief might someone have in order to experience (situation)?

(d) How would they prove that belief is true?
