You rehearse statements that reflect what you know to be objectively true (at least on a theoretical level, if not yet reflected in practice) as encouragement and a positive defense against the Synarc story.
Statements like these are meant to be a starting point in the development of positive thought patterns conducive to sobriety to see implemented in place of the self-destructive train of deceptive thought that most often serves as the catalyst for relapse or the continuation of substance abuse.
