Never Speak Bad about Yourself, You're Always Listening
Unknown
If you had to choose one person who has the most influence over your choices, who would that be? Well, the person you spend the most time with, of course. They have the most power over you.
Think about it, that person is yourself.
Don't put Yourself Down Ask Yourself the Right Questions
You are the only person that you will spend your entire life with. From the day you are born to the day you die, you will have yourself as company no matter what.
All of us, no matter who we are, talk to ourselves. We may not be mumbling words out loud as we navigate the day’s challenges, but there is a constant chatter inside our heads that rarely subsides.
We may not realize it, but we listen intently to what we tell ourselves, and we allow it to swing our decisions more than anything and anyone. All of this chatter affects us on a scale we seldom recognise. It impacts our self-esteem, self-worth, and how we portray ourselves. If your internal voice is either negative or positive, it will make a huge difference in your life. And yet for the majority of us, we talk to ourselves with harshness and
impatience.
We have more patience and understanding with our friends. The habit of loving and respecting ourselves is a learned one and to even have a chance of living a healthy and abundant life we must develop it.
In my younger days, I wasn’t comfortable with my self talk at all. I let the opinion of others dictate the kind of person I could be. I had no self-confidence in the image I had of myself, and only through experience did I begin to understand it was harming me. I started to question everything through a positive lens. Books really helped me to believe in myself as I read about other men and women who had gone through the challenges I was facing. In time my self-talk began to change as my
self-esteem improved. It greatly affected every part of my life, including my writing.
But how do you develop the habit in yourself?
If you had a friend, who respected your opinion and required your encouragement on a day to day basis. He needs someone who can appreciate where he’s coming from and picture where he wants to go. That is the kind of friend you need to be to yourself. Love yourself, be thankful, take risks, be a part of a supportive community, and hold yourself accountable.
The reality is, we can either be our own best friend or own worst enemy. You are helping to create your reality by what you consistently tell yourself. So let them be words of love, encouragement, and power.
