Speaker 2: Hey everyone, and welcome back to that girl energy morning
routine affirmations. I'm your girl, Jessica Lane, and if you're
anything like me, you've probably spent way too much time
in your head, mostly talking to yourself. But let me
tell you, the way we talk to ourselves can make
or break our day. It's the secret sauce to unlocking
that amazing, that girl energy we all crave. Right today,
we're diving deep into the power of positive self talk because, honey,
your inner voice deserves a glow up. We all have
that little voice in our heads whispering doubts and negativity sometimes,
But what if we could rewire those circuits. What if
we could transform those negative thoughts into empowering affirmations that
fuel our dreams and help us achieve our goals. Listen,
positive self talk isn't about being fake or putting on
a happy face. It's about cultivating genuine belief in yourself
and your abilities. Think of it as this. You wouldn't
talk to your best friend the way you sometimes talk
to yourself, right, so why settle for anything less than
kindness and encouragement when it comes to your own amazing self.
Let's break down five key takeaways that can help you
master the art of positive self talk. Number one, awareness
is key. You got to start by noticing those negative
thought patterns. When you catch yourself thinking things like I'm
not good enough or this is too hard, stop right
there and challenge those thoughts. Are they really true or
are they just old limiting beliefs holding you back? Number two,
reframe those negative thoughts Instead of saying I can't do this,
try this is challenging, but I'm going to figure it out.
It's all about shifting your perspective and focusing on solutions
instead of dwelling on problems. Number three, practice gratitude. Take
a moment each day to appreciate the good things in
your life, no matter how small they may seem. This
can be as simple as savoring a delicious cup of
coffee or taking a walk in nature. Number four, Surround
yourself with positive influences. Who you hang out with matters.
Seek out people who uplift and inspire you. Limit your
exposure to negativity and drama. And finally, number five, celebrate
your wins big and small. Give yourself credit for every accomplishment,
no matter how seemingly insignificant. Remember, progress over perfection is
the name of the game. Ever feel like you're constantly
battling with self doubt? You know that feeling when you're
about to take a leap, but that little voice in
your head starts whispering all sorts of anxieties and fears. That,
my friends, is the power of negative self talk holding
you back. Let me tell you a story. This amazing
woman I met. She was starting her own business after
years of working a corporate job. She wasn't passionate about.
She had this incredible idea, a real game changer, But
every time she thought about taking the plunge and going
for it, that pesky inner critic would chime in with
doubts like what if it fails? Or who am I
to think I can do this? Quote quote dot. She
ended up stuck in this cycle of fear and procrastination
sound familiar. Eventually, though, she realized she had a choice.
She could let those negative thoughts control her, or she
could choose to reframe them as opportunities for growth and learning.
She started practicing positive affirmations like I am capable, I
believe in my vision, and I am worthy of success.
She surrounded herself with supportive people who encouraged her dreams,
and she celebrated every small victory along the way. Guess what,
She launched her business and its thriving. Her story is
a powerful reminder that positive self talk can be the
difference between staying stuck in your comfort zone and stepping
into your full potential. So remember, you are capable of
amazing things. You deserve to live a life filled with
purpose and passion. Don't let those negative voices win. Choose
to believe in yourself. Speak kindly to your inner voice,
and watch as your dreams unfold before your very eyes.
Let's recap first, become aware of those pesky negative thoughts. Second,
reframe them into positive affirmations that empower you. Third, practice
gratitude for all the good things in your life. Fourth,
surround yourself with a tribe of supportive people who lift
you up. And finally, celebrate every win, no matter how small.
