Force Quit

When a specific thought, worry, or emotion keeps looping, you intentionally stop feeding it.

Jeff Stoutland and the Close Your Eyes Technique

High fit

Force Quit stops a thought, worry, or emotion that keeps looping in your mind. Mark Bannow was stuck in a mental loop - constantly analyzing Dwight Freeney's speed, predicting his moves, and overthinking his own technique. This mental cycling was making him slower and less effective. Jeff Stoutland's 'close your eyes' instruction was essentially a Force Quit command that stopped the anxious analysis loop and allowed Bannow to reset to pure muscle memory.
