Be ready to learn and grow

by Abdou Sani Boukari Consultant

 

When you decide to unclutter your life, start with your intellectual space by clearing out the old lies and negative self-talk you often recite to yourself.

When you constantly tell yourself little self-deprecating lies, you start believing them and your behavior naturally backs the lies up.  As a result, you put your biggest goals on the back burner and give up when the first obstacle comes your way. 

By doing so, you are digging yourself a hole by repetitively listening to your negative self-talk. Because what you think you become. You cannot continuously have negative thoughts and expect live a positive life.

Be aware that you can embrace a lifestyle of positive thinking and positive habits. Turning negative habits into positive ones requires both resilience and time management.

If you want to get yourself out of this trap, rewire your brain and replace the negative mindsets with positive, productive ones.  In stride, start taking action because the new mindset is something along the lines of “I am ready to learn and grow!”.

Thank you Cindy for your comment. You can also consider this article as my response to a question you asked I think...about 3 weeks ago. This question was related to self-talk.

Not sure just the one you refer to but I know I talk to myself a lot.... Since no one else seems to be out there hearing me... and yes I do answer.. always in the positive... the way I would like someone else to respond!

Ok. I too, am not sure, Cindy. But I remember when replying to you recently (less than one month) in this plate-form, I suggested you search a book in Amazon which title is "what to say when you talk to yoourself" written by Shad Helmstetter. Excuse me if I am wrong!
