Every time I login to my blog I post a new "What I am happy for" next to my picture. That little activity is motivating and encouraging. I do realize how powerful "self talk" or "self affirmations" can be.
For many years I have posted notes to myself to help change my behavior or attitude:
- Listen, listen, listen...talk. That was an important one. I have a tendency to start talking before I listen carefully and digested the information. I have done good at changing this behavior at work, but maybe not so much in my personal life. As I get older I realize I am spouting off half-assed opinions and realize I should listen a bit more.
- Enjoy the journey. Before you know it, you will be my age. You spent years being angry at (your sister, your mom, kids...an old ex, or an imagined enemy). How wonderful it is to enjoy the journey, be happy, love (or ignore) your true enemies and embrace family. Family will be there for you when all others fall by the wayside. Don't waste another precious moment being angry, jealous or resentful. Get over it. Now.
- Take a risk. What is a risk to you? It is different for everyone. Buying a house? Traveling? Getting a new job? Investing your money? Falling in love? Leaving an unhealthy situation? Education? What is stopping you? What are you really afraid of? Get over that hurdle, however you can. You will be proud of the new person you have become.
