Positive Self Talk
Posted: August 18th, 2016, 6:50 am
We talk a lot about negative self talk in our posts - about how defining it is - and how all encompassing it is - how hard it can be to get over that - I don't know what made me remember this but I just did Mohammed Ali had a hype man named Crocodile - Crocodile's only job was to tell Mohammed Ali how great he was - Crocodile had this deep gravelly voice and would say things like "Look at you, you the best boxer ever - look how shiny those gloves are - you gonna beat that guy" - so I just decided today that I am going to put my own crocodile in my head - he will tell me that I am the best order prosessor in the company - that my smile lights 1000 bulbs - its not me being arrogant - just like the negative voice is not your voice either - it is the abusers that hurt us and are still taking residense in our head - but if I have to listen to a voice I want it telling me that I am doing good things for myself - so if I need to listen to crocodile until I can listen to myself then its a step, "Sarah you the best forum writer on this particular post on this particular day ever!"
