Dear <%NAME%>, I believe this months topic is really helpful for so many people. Do you talk to yourself? I do. There's all sorts of things that I say to myself. As you already know...what you say to yourself is what your belief system is and more importantly what you believe about yourself. Why is that so important? Because what you believe about yourself makes you who you are, how you act, and sets out the map of your short and long term goals. Whew...that's big time for just those little thoughts in our heads isn't it? Think about it...if a person is always saying motivating things in his/her head like, I can't wait to start that new project, I'm excited to see what today holds for me, I'm really looking forward to tonight's get together etc. he/she will look for the excitement in life. The mind looks for things that are stimulating, motivating and those things that make you feel good. However or BUT (I hate when that but gets in the way) when you wake up and say "ohh man I feel soooo tired. " "I really don't want to go to work today." "I can't stand my life, why am I so upset, depressed, "Why have I failed so many times?" Yuck! That brings down your physical energy, it fills you with a negativity that doesn't allow anyone to move forward and sucks the life and potential out of you. Self talk is very important. Do you remember what I wrote in my first issue? Self-judgment. When a person self-judges, he/she suppresses the potential that could otherwise flourish. That's why I began with it. If you are still self-judging, get rid of that voice in the head and turn it around. If you don't know what to do...call me (or E-mail). Self-evaluation is good, but self-judgment... downright destructive! Equally important to self-talk is what questions we ask ourselves. This is part of self-talk and the truth is...we are always asking ourselves questions about all sorts of things. What is the reason that we ask questions? Well...I just asked you one...and that was to get an answer. When you ask your mind a question...it's job, function, nature is to do research. It looks for things that will give you an answer so that you can learn more, develop an idea or to validate the information that you already have stored in your subconscious. If you ask questions that are negative, it will look for things that further validate and compound the information that you have stored in your mind. For example: if you say, "Why is my life so difficult?" The mind will look for an answer and say "well...you hate your job, you don't have a lot of energy, you have a lot of clutter in your garage, etc. etc. etc. The mind will give you a million answers that will satisfy that question. The secret is to ask the right question. Instead of "Why is my life so difficult," a better question is "How can I make my life better," or "What can I do starting today, to improve my life?" In this way...you direct your mind to guide you into giving you the answers that will satisfy that query. If you don't feel good, ask "What can I do to feel better?" If you don't understand something, ask "What can I do to better understand or to get the answers that I need about __________situation?" You are already asking the questions...just make sure you ask the right ones. If you wake up feeling crappy, ask yourself "What can I do to make this day better, more meaningful or great?" If you've been through a difficult situation...ask yourself "What can I learn from this and what can I do so that it never happens again?" Asking yourself questions that will give you results is so easy and it requires no more than a small shift in thinking, yet that small shift is so powerful that it can change your perception about yourself, about your life and how you live it. Ask the right questions....START NOW! Hope you had a good Halloween and I wish you a great Turkey day! Until next time. |
