“TALKING IT” douses the fire of your potentials, as in: “IT worries me…IT doesn’t work…IT really ticked me off…IT is depressing…IT won’t work for me…IT isn’t fair…IT just happens over and over to me!”
“STOP TALKING IT!”
“IT” talk unplugs your power source to change AND feel satisfied or happy with where you are.
Talk Sense to Yourself: Feed your mind fun truths like: “Hey, no one has ever died of a positive attitude!” “I’ll keep my nose to the grin(d)stone!” “Thanks but I’ll stick to ticking myself off if you please!” “Thanks BUT I don’t need your help in depressing me!” “Change is GOOD and my middle name is change!” “Sure, life’s hard BUT then you fly!” “Communication is not a monologue but a dialogue!” “The only thing we can change is ourselves!” “The harder we try to control…the behinder we get!”
My favorite self-talk saying today: “Hey, no one has ever died of a positive attitude!”
Sure, although it’s easier to be glum and numb than positive…why not have some fun talking UP to yourself when you’re talking trash? You may not be able to fix people…BUT you can fix problems.
Recall always that “If at first you don’t succeed…try, try something DIFFERENT!
