subject: Words That Work [print this page]


If you had a friend that talked to you the way you talk to yourself, how long

would you be friends with that person? I know this might sound alarming to

you but what you say to yourself in quiet (when no one else is home) is why

you are seeing the results you are.

Success magazine publisher Darren Hardy says this on the subject of

self-talk, Left unguided (as most do), your brain will stew in the

negative all day, every day of your life. The conundrum iswhat you think

about comes about. Where your attention goes, energy flows, thus the

direction your life takes. The key to achieving great success in life

starts with a positive self-image.

What we say directly affects what we do and have. Our brains cannot achieve a

goal we do not have, and in the same breath we cannot go where we want to go

if we constantly tell ourselves that we cant do it. So how do we change

our negative mindset to a positive one?

This is where gratitude and affirmations come in. Pick a few things you are

grateful for every morning and focus on that as you go through your daily

routine. Personally I have gone as far as creating a list of about ten

positive words of affirmation that I have written on a 3x5 card that I have

taped to my mirror so I read them every time I go in there. We have to change

the flow of information we are filling our minds with from negative to

positive, if we want to be great, we have to be grateful.

My challenge to you is this. Take 5 minutes at the end of each day before you

go to bed to write down the top 10 things you are grateful for in your life.

The next morning when you get up, read those ten things and think about how

truly blessed you really are. Because I dont know if you realized this or

not, but there is someone else out there that has it worse then you do. If we

constantly focus on how bad it is, it will never get better. Be the change

you want to see in your own life, and be grateful for what you have.
