Quote

What makes these beliefs irrational is their inflexibility and absoluteness. I must be loved and approved; I must be thoroughly competent; I need someone stronger than myself. The client firmly believes things must be a particular way or something awful or catastrophic will happen. Ellis has used the term musterbation to refer to this kind of irrational thinking. Any time you find yourself thinking that something must be a particular way, you're guilty of musterbation.
