Saturday Straight Talk: SELF-TALK

This is STRAIGHT TALK SATURDAY, so let's hit this sucker straight on the head...

Today's Topic Is SELF-TALK.

Riddle Me This, Batman...If You Talked To Your Friends The Way You Talk To Yourself, Would You Have Any Friends?

Obviously the answer is no.

Then why do you do it to yourself?  

And More Importantly:  How's That Workin Out For Ya? 

HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:  You Are The Most Influential Person You Will Talk To All Day.   

Now I don't know, maybe you DO act like an A$$hole.  Maybe you ARE lazy.  Maybe you HAVE excess fat on your body because you stress eat.  Maybe you spend EVERY WAKING MOMENT trying to please everyone and gain their acceptance.  Fair enough. 

STRAIGHT TALK FROM YOUR COACH:  I don't give a $#!+ about how old you are, who did you wrong, how the cards are stacked up against you, how you've hit rock bottom, or what people tell you. 

Negative Self-Talk is a habit.  It is always focusing on what you LACK, or how you don't measure up; rather than what you HAVE, or who you ARE.

All it does is reinforce beliefs and behaviors which keep you stuck in a cycle of doubt, shame, guilt and self-defeat.  And that doesn't serve you-or anyone else.  Never has; never will. 

BE ADVISED:  Nobody Puts Baby In The Corner.  Not Even You. 

Where you are is not the end.  It's not all that you're capable of.  It's not even a remote glimmer of your potential!  

THIS WEEK'S COACHING CHALLENGE:  Tell The Negative Committee Which Meets Inside Your Head To Sit Down And Shut Up. 

Hustle while they party. Grind while they sleep. Results require no explanation.  Put your nose to the grindstone and get $#!+ done.

Make It A Powerful Week!
