Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, Jessica Laine here and welcome back to that
girl energy morning routine affirmations, your daily dose of sunshine
and motivation to kickstart your day. You know that feeling
when you wake up and just blaw like the world's
already got its foot on your chest. Yeah, we've all
been there. But guess what we can rewrite that narrative.
Today We're diving deep into the power of positive self talk,
because seriously, how you talk to yourself matters more than
you think. Think about it. What would happen if you
treated yourself like your best friend. You wouldn't constantly put
them down right, You'd shower them with encouragement, remind them
of their awesomeness, and celebrate their wins, big or small.
So why treat yourself any differently? Positive self talk is
like that internal pep talk, the gentle nudge reminding you
of your worth and potential. It's a game changer, trust me.
Here's the thing. Our brains are wired to focus on negativity.
It's like make an evolutionary thing. Back in the day,
constantly scanning for danger kept us alive. But in today's world,
that negativity bias can hold us back from achieving our
goals and living our best lives. Positive self talk is
like a superhero cape, shielding you from those negative thoughts
and empowering you to step into your greatness, ready to
ditch the inner critic and embrace that positive vibe. Here
are five key takeaways. First up, catch those negative thoughts.
Become aware of what's swirling around in your head. When
you hear yourself saying things like I can't do this
or I'm not good enough, pause for a second and
challenge those beliefs. Seriously, ask yourself, is there actual evidence
to support that statement? Probably not. Our brains love to
jump to conclusions, so it's important to check those assumptions. Second,
reframe those negative thoughts, turn them around and look for
the positive spin. Instead of I messed up that presentation,
try I learned something from that experience, and I'll do
better next time. Remember everyone makes mistakes, It's part of
the learning process. Third, focus on your strengths. We all
have unique talents and abilities. Make the list of your accomplishments,
big and small, and remind yourself of those amazing things
you're capable of. Celebrating Your wins, no matter how tiny,
builds confidence. And fuels that positive momentum. Fourth, practice gratitude.
Take a moment each day to appreciate the good things
in your life, your health, your loved ones, even a
delicious cup of coffee. Gratitude shifts your focus from what's
lacking to what you already have, creating a more positive
and fulfilling mindset. And finally, be kind to yourself. You
deserve love and compassion just as much as anyone else.
Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding that you
would offer to a dear friend. You know, I was
struggling with this whole self talk thing a while back.
I kept putting myself down, saying things like I'm not
smart enough or I'll never be successful. Sound familiar. It
was like this vicious cycle of negativity. But then I
realized that voice in my head wasn't actually helping me.
So I started practicing positive affirmations. I would repeat things
like I am capable and worthy or I attract success
and abundance every morning, and guess what, it made a difference.
My outlook shifted. I felt more confident, and I started
taking risks that I wouldn't have before. Remember, positive self
talk isn't about being fake or ignoring your challenges. It's
about choosing to focus on the good, believing in yourself,
and creating a more empowering mindset. You've got this, So,
