Self talk
There is nothing more damaging than negativity. Having to deal with negative people is a burden no one should carry.
Worst yet, when that negative self-talk comes from that little voice in your head, nothing could be more destructive.
One of the most hard-hitting question someone asked me once was;
‘’If a friend would speak to you the same way you spoke to yourself, would he or she still be your friend?’’
When negative thoughts creep into your head, challenge them…
If a friend was in that situation, what would I say? Is there a more positive way of looking at this? Am I keeping everything in perspective?
Easier said than done but if you catch those thoughts early, you’ll have a better chance of focusing on what’s good in your life, be grateful for what you have and have done.
