ZERO TOLERANCE TO NEGATIVE THINKING

THE SECOND INNER VOICE - YOU TALKING TO YOUR MIND

The second voice is what you say when you talk to your mind.  This voice changes who you are by changing what you put into your mind.

You don’t have to wait for years to make your life better.  You can do it today using positive self-talk.  What you say when you talk to yourself changes who you are right now, and it guarantees your future will be different from your past.  Not only will it be different, it will be better if you put positive things into your mind.

Self-talk contains the script for the rest of your life.  That script goes straight into your memory banks, and you replay it dozens of times each day.

Some people denigrate positive self-talk, implying it’s a trip to Pollyanna.  They mock and accuse you of looking at the world through rose-colored glasses.  These cynics and critics have a bias in favor of negative self-talk.  As long as you tell yourself everything you can’t do, your self-talk is perfectly acceptable.   But the moment your self-talk turns positive, you become the object of their scorn.  They regard positive self-talk as a sign of weakness.  To them it’s nothing but internal hype.  They tell you to grow up and leave fantasyland behind.  Face reality and accept the world as it is.  Stop all that foolish palaver about unlimited potential and living your dreams.

One of the smartest things you will ever do is to ignore the voice of the cynics and critics.  Most of them live in Nowhere Land and have never done anything positive with their lives.  They aren’t qualified to advise you about your self-talk or your potential for greatness, and you don’t want them to write the script for your life.

YOU ARE QUALIFIED TO WRITE YOUR OWN POSITIVE SELF-TALK

You don’t need to be a genius or hire a consultant to write your positive self-talk.  You have been creating it on your own for your entire life, and now isn’t the time to start believing you don’t know how.  If you have a purpose, plan, and dream, you have everything required to write excellent self-talk.

POWERFUL SELF-TALK COMES NINETY PERCENT FROM THE HEART

Powerful self-talk comes ninety percent from the heart and ten percent from the head.

For most people, emotion is the most powerful component of the language of the mind.  There is a world of difference between saying, “Take this job and shove it,” compared with saying, “I have decided to quit my job.”  The world of difference comes from the emotional impact of the first statement compared with the second.  The first statement is packed full of emotion and evokes the image of power and self-assurance, and the second statement sounds lame.

Make sure your self-talk comes from your heart rather than just from your head.  Don’t waste your time or do things the hard way by using self-talk that lacks power.

Usually it’s better to state self-talk in positive terms rather than negative.  You want its focus to take you in a positive direction rather than a negative one.

Your self-talk will be more effective if it’s specific and if it uses all of the sensory modalities of the language of the mind.  If it has strong auditory, visual, and emotional components, it will have a greater impact.  Powerful self-talk lets you hear the sound of your dreams while you watch them on the motion picture screen of your mind, and it lets you feel their motivating power.  Positive self-talk allows you to say your dreams, see your dreams, and feel your dreams even before they happen.

Read books on how to write powerful self-talk and take their advice when it’s helpful.  But don’t become enslaved to writing self-talk to a formula that is supposed to work according to the experts.  Sticking to formulas guarantees your scripting will feel stiff and artificial.

Good self-talk is more like poetry than prose.  It should be music to your ears rather than a cognitive assessment of where you are and what you need to do.  The most effective self-talk contains powerful thoughts written into a melody you enjoy singing to yourself all day long.  You repeat it many times each day because it has the ring of truth and moves you in the direction of your dreams.
