This test made me learn a few interesting things about myself. I am not superstitious, but I am a believer. That I already knew, but the interesting thing was: I had a high level of anxiety about the thought being proposed in Step 2, but I went ahead and wrote it anyway because I felt I should follow the steps and see them through to the end. I was actually angry at the thought being proposed (not your fault, tore) but felt I had "committed" to the test. As I said, my discomfort did not increase when I wrote down the statement -- but I have an aspect to my personality where I can block feelings out when they become overwhelming, especially when I feel I have committed to something or have a "duty" to see it through. I had that blocking-out sensation when I read what I had written. So there -- probably more about me than you needed to know -- but I think that may be what the test disclosed in my case.
Also, I don't view this test as something you beat or fail. I view it as an exercise by which you perhaps can realize something about your personality, or how you deal with anxiety.
