Catch the roasting, replace with encouragement.
Stop saying: "Everyone else is doing better than me"
Start saying: "I'm on my own unique journey and moving forward at my own pace"
Stop saying: "I don't have what it takes"
Start saying: "I have everything I need to succeed, and I'm building on that every day"
Stop saying: "This is too hard, I should give up"
Start saying: "I can break this down into smaller steps and tackle them one at a time"
Stop saying: "I'm not talented enough for this"
Start saying: "With practice and dedication, I can develop the skills I need"
The Golden Rule is to talk to yourself like the best coach in the world.
Use the voice that cheers you on in good times and encourages during bad times because this is sustainable, cooking yourself is not.
The universe is always listening.
