Self Talk Sabotage
Tweet |
When was the last time you considered your words? Did you know that you can shoot yourself in the proverbial foot with them? (Of course, you know.)
Some people's lives are sabotaged (and they're the ones doing the sabotaging?!). Here's how it goes: You're having a bad day and then you add to it by saying, "I have been here a half hour and I haven't accomplished a thing," or "I don't know why I even try. Everything in this business is against me" and so on and so forth it goes.
Do you know anybody that talks like that? Is it you?
It's not that we create reality with our words. (If we could, wouldn't we all be living in large mansions and driving expensive cars?) But we do add a lot to atmosphere, mood, etc. ~ even our own spirits ~ by what we say.
So what's been coming out of your mouth (mostly)?

One of those times when I say "How would we feel if a camera was rolling? Would we be embarrassed?" If we actually were the ones to hear us say the things we say, would it bother us?
This is good reminder. It is very important to pay attention to what you say.
Nice reminder, being mindful of your thoughts before you spit it out...
Lovely post.
It's one of those "if you don't have anything to say that is interesting or of value don't say it all"
I think it is very important at work or in a social environment to think before you talk and especially take note of those around you. That has influence on your subject matter.
