What do you say to yourself, either out loud or in your head? Are your words negative (I can’t do that job, I’m not a good parent, I always make mistakes, Other people are always better than I am), or are they positive (I can do this, A mistake does not define me, I always support my teammates, I am good at “___”)? What we say about ourselves tends to come true, so are we being careful about what we say when we talk to ourselves? Perhaps we need a reminder note taped to our monitor or bathroom mirror to remind us to say the positive words. What positive words will you say today?
