self talk - p 14

Increase your power and influence

Be a better friend to yourself.  Your power comes from within; boost it by talking to yourself as you would talk to a friend. We are constantly in conversation with our selves. Listen to what you are saying in your head.  Are you positive and supportive with your self? Before you let a negative statement be the last word, ask, "Would I say that to a friend?". Would you say, "You're stupid" or You're lazy" or "You'll never get it right"? Filter the negative comments you give yourself.  Stop whenever you hear a negative thought in your head and replace it with a more positive and supportive thought.  Say "I'm learning" or "I prefer to take my time" or "I can do this". The more positive you act, the more positive you become.

Be responsible for your thought. When you've been looking forward to something, say a vacation, did you become more and more excited the longer and more intensely you thought and daydreamed about it? That emotional energy and commitment is the fuel that your higher self uses to create your reality.  What you think and feel is what you get.  Use positive visualization and prayer to create the life that you want to have. Negative thoughts gain the same intensity the longer you let them stay in your head.  Have you ever got madder and madder the more you thought about something that frustrated you? Take control of your thoughts.  Replace negative thoughts as quickly as possible. Think of changing channels. Is this the picture that you want to see? Change the channel.  Focus on a prayer or desire.  Condition your selves to a positive view.

Use prayer, belief, passion and faith to involve your entire being.  You can pray for what you want.  Your lower self generates emotions that your higher self uses to actualize your thoughts and prayers. If you are anxious about illness even as you are praying for health, it is the emotion, the anxiety, that your lower self sends with the prayer.  It is important to phrase your prayers and thoughts in a positive way, and to "feel" them in a positive way.  Use simple messages to direct your emotional energy.

Try This:

     Use mental rehearsal. If you're meeting new people, envision yourself being positive and making a great impression. Imagine vividly what you will say and how you will respond to others.  Think about what you are wearing and how you are moving.  Let yourself  really feel confident and powerful and gracious. Paint a very clear picture for your mind of what you want to happen.  An artist has the picture in her head before it's on the canvas.  You can do the same with your life. “See” what you want to be!
