Discover the true power of your words
I recently wrote why our words can be the worlds most dangerous weapons. Today, I want to look more on the positive side of speaking. Our words are also our most strongest alley to success in life. Self-Talk determines your success.
Here is a quote from Budda. “The mind is everything. What you think you become.” STOP A MOMENT AND THINK ABOUT THIS.
Ok, Our thoughts become our actions and our words. We control both. Yet, I feel our self-talk is so much more important. This is because our sub-conscious and conscious mind is hearing our voice. The problem is our sub-conscious mind does not know the fact from fiction. If we say something negative, and are joking, it will not know. We are programming our habits.
One can’t undermine the power of words. Words can produce staggering results in all walks of life. Remember, our words are our messengers, and people treat and respect us based on the words that flow from our mouth. In a way, your success and accomplishments in life is greatly influenced by the choice of words that you use in your day to day life. To help you understand the power of words, pay heed to the conversation you are currently having. Are you satisfied with the overall flow of the conversation?
Let’s have a look on how we can have control over our self-talk, and see improvement in our lives.
The primary step towards self talk is to be aware of the flow of the whole conversation. More than often, stop yourself and pay close heed to the direction of the conversation. If you are not satisfied with the conversation flow, then you know for sure that you need to stop or change the flow of conversation in your favor. This will only happen if you stop and listen to your own conversation.
Since you are aware of the truckloads of benefits connected with your mind and choice of words, you will derive a new source of motivation to have control over the flow of your conversation. Once you have complete control, you can select a better path to experience the advantage of positive self-talk. This choice will be a difference maker between success and failure.
It’s also important that your mind is filled with positive thoughts. You need to make a conscious decision to think good about yourself. Focus on the positive and encouraging words being bestowed upon you. This does not imply that you need to lie to yourself, but focus on the positive and eradicate the negativity slowly and gradually. Practice saying positive things and you will find the whole process very easy. Your road to success will start with positive thoughts.
Many a times, we do things in life without our desire. However, doing these things is an indication of our discipline. The same principle applies with self-talk. When you will not experience immediate results you will feel like quitting, and most likely you will not be left with the motivation to continue. However, if you will stand the test of time and discipline yourself to continue with self-talk practice despite the early hurdles, then this will certainly pay off in the long run. Choose to have discipline over your conversation, and you will be a person who has control over his thoughts, and direction in life.
Having control over the dialogue requires a conscious and focused effort. You need to find means to remind yourself to stop, and think about your present thoughts, and then be able to redirect the pool of thoughts in the right direction. The right direction implies a pool of positive and motivating thoughts. Be persistent in having control over your thoughts and you will see yourself embarking your journey towards success, thereby unleashing the power of self-talk.
21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Proverbs 18:21
