Positive Self-Talk Pt. 5: The Bottom Line

The bottom line is that what we say is SO important.  It’s important to the person we’re speaking with, but it’s even MORE important to us.  Every word is like a bite of food.  Ask yourself today:  “Am I feeding myself healthy, positive words?  Or am I filling my belly with negative self-talk and starving my heart and soul?”  The truth is that the more positive we are, the better our lives will be, inside and out.

Positive Self-Talk Pt. 4: Get out (of here)!

Get out (of here)! Okay, if you know me personally, my favorite saying is GET OUT (some times I add the “of here”)!  It is as sweet and funny as an expression could be, because I don’t want anyone to get out!  I want everyone to come on in and join the party!  So there’s kind of an inside joke there.  For me, it’s the combination of all of the above sayings with a little twist of humor.  As I’ve learned with twenty-one years of maintaining a 100-pound weight loss, HUMOR is a wonderful tool in ANY situation.  Think of Elaine in Seinfeld. How many times did she scream, “GET OUT OF HERE” as we all cracked up. You must watch some old Seinfeld episodes if you have not watched the show. Elaine is a hoot and this is one of her signature lines.

Positive Self-Talk Pt. 3: No worries.

No worries.  I love the phrase NO WORRIES because it immediately releases another human being from whatever albatross is around their neck (and remember, we often EAT over those things that weigh us down with shame, blame or worry).  It is bigger than don’t worry about it somehow, and yet it does not invalidate the person’s struggle.  It simply says that in this moment, between you and I, you may let go of your burden.  No worries. I picked up NO WORRIES when I was in Australia and it somehow followed me back up here from down under. I notice more and more people in America saying NO WORRIES instead of NO PROBLEM.
