1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, Jessica Laine here and welcome back to that 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:08,800 girl energy morning routine affirmations, your daily dose of sunshine 3 00:00:08,839 --> 00:00:12,320 and motivation to kickstart your day. You know that feeling 4 00:00:12,359 --> 00:00:15,560 when you wake up and just blaw like the world's 5 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,640 already got its foot on your chest. Yeah, we've all 6 00:00:18,679 --> 00:00:22,199 been there. But guess what we can rewrite that narrative. 7 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,120 Today We're diving deep into the power of positive self talk, 8 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,679 because seriously, how you talk to yourself matters more than 9 00:00:29,719 --> 00:00:32,840 you think. Think about it. What would happen if you 10 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,280 treated yourself like your best friend. You wouldn't constantly put 11 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,119 them down right, You'd shower them with encouragement, remind them 12 00:00:40,119 --> 00:00:43,719 of their awesomeness, and celebrate their wins, big or small. 13 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,159 So why treat yourself any differently? Positive self talk is 14 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,320 like that internal pep talk, the gentle nudge reminding you 15 00:00:51,399 --> 00:00:55,280 of your worth and potential. It's a game changer, trust me. 16 00:00:55,799 --> 00:00:59,280 Here's the thing. Our brains are wired to focus on negativity. 17 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,679 It's like make an evolutionary thing. Back in the day, 18 00:01:03,079 --> 00:01:07,319 constantly scanning for danger kept us alive. But in today's world, 19 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,680 that negativity bias can hold us back from achieving our 20 00:01:10,719 --> 00:01:14,599 goals and living our best lives. Positive self talk is 21 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,079 like a superhero cape, shielding you from those negative thoughts 22 00:01:18,079 --> 00:01:21,439 and empowering you to step into your greatness, ready to 23 00:01:21,519 --> 00:01:24,760 ditch the inner critic and embrace that positive vibe. Here 24 00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:29,079 are five key takeaways. First up, catch those negative thoughts. 25 00:01:29,519 --> 00:01:32,439 Become aware of what's swirling around in your head. When 26 00:01:32,439 --> 00:01:34,920 you hear yourself saying things like I can't do this 27 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,200 or I'm not good enough, pause for a second and 28 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:43,680 challenge those beliefs. Seriously, ask yourself, is there actual evidence 29 00:01:43,719 --> 00:01:47,519 to support that statement? Probably not. Our brains love to 30 00:01:47,599 --> 00:01:52,439 jump to conclusions, so it's important to check those assumptions. Second, 31 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,079 reframe those negative thoughts, turn them around and look for 32 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,680 the positive spin. Instead of I messed up that presentation, 33 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,400 try I learned something from that experience, and I'll do 34 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:08,120 better next time. Remember everyone makes mistakes, It's part of 35 00:02:08,159 --> 00:02:12,800 the learning process. Third, focus on your strengths. We all 36 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,960 have unique talents and abilities. Make the list of your accomplishments, 37 00:02:17,159 --> 00:02:20,280 big and small, and remind yourself of those amazing things 38 00:02:20,319 --> 00:02:24,639 you're capable of. Celebrating Your wins, no matter how tiny, 39 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:30,360 builds confidence. And fuels that positive momentum. Fourth, practice gratitude. 40 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,120 Take a moment each day to appreciate the good things 41 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,719 in your life, your health, your loved ones, even a 42 00:02:36,719 --> 00:02:40,680 delicious cup of coffee. Gratitude shifts your focus from what's 43 00:02:40,759 --> 00:02:43,800 lacking to what you already have, creating a more positive 44 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,439 and fulfilling mindset. And finally, be kind to yourself. You 45 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,639 deserve love and compassion just as much as anyone else. 46 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,039 Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding that you 47 00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:58,159 would offer to a dear friend. You know, I was 48 00:02:58,199 --> 00:03:00,840 struggling with this whole self talk thing a while back. 49 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,719 I kept putting myself down, saying things like I'm not 50 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,520 smart enough or I'll never be successful. Sound familiar. It 51 00:03:09,599 --> 00:03:12,759 was like this vicious cycle of negativity. But then I 52 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,159 realized that voice in my head wasn't actually helping me. 53 00:03:17,039 --> 00:03:21,680 So I started practicing positive affirmations. I would repeat things 54 00:03:21,719 --> 00:03:25,280 like I am capable and worthy or I attract success 55 00:03:25,319 --> 00:03:29,800 and abundance every morning, and guess what, it made a difference. 56 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,639 My outlook shifted. I felt more confident, and I started 57 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,919 taking risks that I wouldn't have before. Remember, positive self 58 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,759 talk isn't about being fake or ignoring your challenges. It's 59 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,000 about choosing to focus on the good, believing in yourself, 60 00:03:45,319 --> 00:03:49,560 and creating a more empowering mindset.
