Sometimes you go crazy because there's so many... So much talking going on inside
your head. Well, you got to learn how to control
those voices in your head. Watch closely, follow the steps, gain that
control.
There's a lot of power when it comes to the words that you say every day. In fact,
it's like you're declaring what is going to happen. Words, sentences, expressions.
All have a really dramatic effect on the people around us. You know, imagine,
imagine going up to a child and saying to the child.
"Wow, you're stupid or you can't do anything right." Well, if anybody was
listening, they would look at you like you're a mean person. Like, "What did you
just say that for? That's mean. You can't talk that way to a child." But yet, we talk
that way to ourselves. And we don't have anybody around us who jumps in our head
and tells us we can't talk to ourselves that way. Now, imagine you go into the
room and and there's somebody sitting there and you say, "Hey, would you mind
going in washing the dishes and cleaning in the kitchen?' You just now gave that
person instructions. And that person you know, they'll stand up and head into the
kitchen to go help with the dishes. Your words cause other people to take
action. So, why would your own words not cause you to take action too? You know we
use language to guide other people of what to do but we've tend to forget that
how we talk to ourselves actually guides us what we're going to do next? So, if we
were to say mean or degrading or you know terrible comments to our self then
that would mean that we're literally giving ourselves instructions. And that's
something to realize. What we say inside of our mind or we mumble underneath our
breath, literally our instructions of how to act and what to do next. So, if I were
to say to myself I can't do anything right. Then my mind and my body would
listen and go, "Okay, I guess that's the instructions. We can't do anything right."
So, just like speaking to other people, it works with other people. So,
why would it not do that to ourselves? And I think that's where we really mess
up and we really make mistakes in our life is not paying attention to our
language gives us instructions. So to think about that, I really think it's
important for you today to make a big difference about how to control those
comments and voices in your head so that they're giving the right kind of
instructions. If you were to tell yourself, I'm smart I can figure this out,
I'm efficient, I'm organized, I can bring people together, I can solve problems.
That's instructions. And those are instructions that your mind and your
body will hear you say. And they will start to follow those instructions.
Now, what if... Check this out. What if what we said to ourselves literally happened?
What if we actually got that concept? What we said to ourselves would happen?
Just like we give instructions to our children of clean your room and finish
your homework and give me a hug before you go to bed. We want our children to
follow those instructions so we, we actually have that belief system that
what we say is going to happen. Because we have that belief system that our
children it will take action or the people on our team will take action. So,
you do have the belief system that what you say is going to happen. But let's
move that into the reality. Then we got to be careful what we say. We're going to
be careful about what we're muttering underneath our breath and what's going
on inside of our head. So, today's a great day to get some control or some guidance
about the power of your own language. Now, I've written a few things here to help
support you about how to go about doing this. Number 1, stop the talk of
anything that can destroy or degrade you. And if you... If it starts to come out of
your mouth, shut your mouth. Or this starts to go on inside your head, you
might need to do something that's distracting enough so that it doesn't
finish its sentence on the inside of your head.
Because it can give you instructions that can degrade you. And literally
destroy you. Number 2, talk yourself out of that
kind of language. Switch up the languag,e turn it the other direction.
Number 3 talk yourself into the kinds of things you want to be great at.
You know, me being a presenter and a teacher and a keynote presenter, I've had
to talk myself into it. Because my personality did not support the kind of
things I do in my life right now. I literally had to talk myself and
convince myself that I was good at this. Just like anybody else in the world. If
you want to be good at it, you be your best coach ever. You be the best
cheerleader ever. You use the language that gives you the instructions of what
to do, how to do it. So that you can really be good at it.
You know, again, I'm going to say, we give other people instructions and we want
them to follow what we say. How about we start giving ourselves better
instructions? If you lack the mental power of changing what's going on inside
your mind, manage this voice. And if you got negative stuff going on inside of
your head then use a lot of positive to come out of your mouth. What you say out
of your mouth will begin to take over what's going on inside of your head.
Write your words or sentences down. If you like some certain positive sentences
or certain positive words that you really really like, write them on your
bathroom mirror. You know, post them on the fridge, put them in your car in
little post-it notes different places. Make them visual. But when you find great
sentences and you find great words, write them down so you don't forget them. So
you can keep repeating them as though you're giving yourself instructions of
how to act. And but what if...? What if you could actually follow your own
instructions? Then imagine this, whatever you say is going to come true for you
and the way you're going to act. Well if we could actually get a hold of that
concept, you would really take charge of our lives wouldn't we? See your words
having power. Just like when you say, "Hey, sweetie pie
will you go clean your room?' And you see your your son or daughter head into the
room to go clean the room. Your words just cause something to move. Your words
just cause something to happen. So, you see it happen around you all day long
with the power of your words. Now use that same principle to take a look at
your own life. If you say it, it's going to cause things to move. The last one here,
honor your word. And it's going to honor and your words will honor you. So, choose your
words wisely. And if there's anything you wish would happen in your life or
there's certain things you wish you could feel or think or be, today's a
great day for you to give yourself the instructions. You give the commands, you
give the statements, you say the words. And literally command your mind and body
to perform that way, to act that way. It's what we call declarations. We're
declaring what it is we want to have happen. And if you don't have
declarations, you might be having too much negative talk go on inside your
head. And if you don't even notice the negative talk, it could just be doubtful
thinking. Pessimistic thinking. It literally could be just a mushy type of
thinking that's going on. But try it, try writing down the sentences and words of
things you wish would happen. Something that you really believe could happen in
the next couple weeks and notice that when your language changes, your behavior
changes. And when your language and behavior upgrades, watch your life is
going to upgrade. Here at 3 key elements, we love training principles
