Take a minute to answer these questions:
1. Are you talking yourself out of living your fullest life with the self-concept you've created?
2. Who do you tell yourself you are with your self-talk?
3. Which of the following scenarios is closest to your self-talk?
• Maybe you are saying to yourself, "This is the year I'm going straight to the top,"
• "This is the year I become a superstar"
• "I've got everything going for me and this is my year"
• "Things don't look like they're going to be much better this year; in fact it might be a little worse than last year,"
• "Maybe it's time for some belt tightening; I don't want to take any chances"
• "You never know what could happen, better to be safe than sorry."
Is there any doubt in your mind which of these examples shows the confidence that will build self-esteem, and which are the ones that demonstrate low self-esteem?Do you know that your self-talk comes at the rate of a magazine page of text every single minute of the day? That's a lot of talking to yourself! If you fill your mind with positive input, it's a pretty good bet that most of your self-talk will also be positive and foster personal and professional growth.
