Self Motivation
Talking Yourself Into Success
Self motivation using positive affirmation to achieve success
Do you realise you talk to yourself?
Talking to yourself does not mean you are just a few steps away from being the crazy person nobody wants to sit next to on the bus. Talking to yourself can be beneficial if you know what to say when you talk to yourself.
We all talk to ourselves, mostly not out loud, but there is a conversation going on inside all of us all the time. Sometimes the talk is a monologue but a lot of the time we are conducting a dialogue within ourselves. This is the way we reach decisions. By debating the pros and cons of any situation, we eventually reach our conclusion and act accordingly.
Anyone who has needed to make a tough decision will know that feeling of being swayed one way and then another, making a decision and then unmaking it before remaking it. Once we have acted in accordance with our final decision, we often continue the debate and ask ourselves if the decision was the right one after all.
Even after we have committed ourselves to a course of action, we can't help wondering about the eventual outcome of our decision. When it is already too late for a change of mind and we will have to follow our chosen path, we can't halt this internal debate. This is where we have another choice to make. We can waste massive amounts of energy by electing to agonise over the decision we have already made, asking ourselves if we did the right thing and worrying about the outcome. Alternatively, we can make the positive choice to tell ourselves that the decision has been made and we have the ability to see it through to a successful conclusion.
If we carry on worrying about whether we made the correct decision, we will be wasting valuable energy instead of using it to achieve our goals. We will also be creating a state of mind where negative feelings can easily take root. Self doubt will erode any positive feelings we had to start with and we will lose all confidence in our ability to succeed. In continuing to doubt our abilities, we will encourage the tiny seeds of self doubt to grow up all around us into a deep dark forest of negativity where we could search for all eternity but never find our self confidence again.
Once you have made a final decision, don't waste your energy by replaying the decision making process in search of a fatal mistake. Don't waste your time in imagining all sorts of negative outcomes. Remember, you already discussed the matter fully between you and yourself and made a decision. Now it is time to look forward. Now is the time to plan for success.
Counteract any niggling doubts by concentrating on the reasons for making that decision. If you wrote a list of pros and cons during the time you were considering your decision, rip up the list of cons and throw it away. While doing this, picture yourself doing it and feeling positive and happy about your decision. Pick a quiet time when you are alone each day and visualise yourself throwing away the "bad" list and feeling good about it. After repeatedly performing this visualisation exercise for a couple of weeks, you will be able to invoke the positive feeling associated with your mental picture as an antidote to negativity any time you start to feel anxious about your abilities.
If you did not make written lists to help with the decision making, it is a good idea to write a list of your reasons in favour of the decision once you have committed yourself to a course of action. Keep a copy of your "positive" list on your office wall or the refrigerator door, or any place you will see it regularly, as a reminder of all the good reasons for choosing the path you are on.
Build up your self confidence by making daily affirmations. Write down a list of positive statements to affirm the person you are, the abilities you possess that will help you reach your goals and the things you will do to ensure you achieve success. Write these statements in groups of "I am", "I can" and "I will". You don't need to make huge long lists, just a couple from each category can be enough to boost your self esteem.
Write your affirmation statements on cards and place the cards in positions where you will see them several times each day, such as on your bathroom mirror, on your desk at work, on the refrigerator door. Make it a habit to speak your affirmation statements aloud several times each day when you are alone. Speak them in your mind any time doubts threaten your belief in yourself.
