subject: Dont Talk Yourself Out Of It By Loral Langemeier [print this page] But honestly, do you really want to go on this way? Do you want to continue in this pattern of setting goals, only to see that year after year youre getting no closer to actually achieving any of them? Were all vulnerable to this self-defeating pattern, but none of us like it! Loral Langemeier, a best-selling author and a sought-after financial counselor, finds that the crucial step in changing this pattern is through changing the way you talk to yourself.
In this new year, its time to stop accepting failure as a normal expectation. Its time to stop saying, There's always next year. Your dreams, visions and success can't wait until next year! Its time to change your mindset, and to start actually EXPECTING to achieve the things that you set out to do.
Instead of talking yourself out of it, try these three ideas on for size:
Pay attention to your ACTIONS. If you have read Loral Langemeiers bestselling book "The Millionaire Maker," you will understand the importance of taking action with real confidence that the desired outcomes are indeed being achieved. Just walk into an office or store or bank, and go meet the owner or President. Why not? Why do you think thats for someone else? Get involved with successful, positive, people. Each action you take either moves you CLOSER to your desired result, or leads you AWAY from those results. These seemingly little actions end up being the steps that you later look back on as the keys to getting you to the finish line.
Pay attention to your SELF-TALK. You know that sometimes were our own worst enemy. It's true! Were the ones that are talking ourselves out of everything. Sure, there are other nay-Sayers out there, that push us down. But thats not nearly as damaging as the cold water we throw on OURSELVES! Positive self-talk will build you up from the inside out and give you a life-affirming way to make your results a reality. Listen to some of your favorite music, remind yourself of the potential you have to move forward, then head out there and doing the things that you know you are capable of doing.
Pay attention to THE WAY YOU SPEAK TO OTHERS. Loral Langemeiers Yes! Energy equation begins with modifying the way you engage others in conversation. You need to learn to project yourself as successful in order to be successful. It's in the way you carry yourself. It's in your elevator pitch and the way you tell people what you do. It's in how you network with others.
Loral Langemeier has been a help to many people just like you. One of her fans, Sandra, says, I agree, the great tendency is to give up on our lofty New Year goals. But by making steady progress with smaller, achievable goals those are the building blocks to success. Who doesn't like to get that sense of satisfaction in crossing something off the list to make way for the next item?
