Improving your ability to talk
about yourself in an engaging way is a common challenge. One way to start is
by identifying and focusing on
topics that genuinely interest you. Sharing personal stories, discussing your passions, and asking open-ended
questions to others can help create more engaging conversations.
Negative self-talk can be
devastating for your mental well-being. It undercuts your motivation, leaves you susceptible to
mental health problems, and makes it harder to be successful in life. Fortunately, you can take
steps to change negative thoughts into more realistic or positive ones.
Start by following one simple
rule: Don't say anything to yourself
that you wouldn't say to anyone else. Be gentle and encouraging with yourself. If a negative thought enters
your mind, evaluate it rationally and respond with affirmations of what is good
about you.
The problem with positive
thinking as an approach is that it operates at the surface level of conscious thoughts. It does nothing to contend with the subconscious mind
where negative self-talk and limiting beliefs really live. If you've tried
thinking positively, you know that it can be a difficult habit to maintain.
Social pressure can sometimes
make it difficult to get a sense of what is important to you, particularly if you are
surrounded by people with strong personalities. Taking some time to yourself
can give you a chance to reflect, explore, and experiment with new ideas and
feelings.
Here is an article about THE POWER OF POSITIVE SELF TALK. Do read it and it is sure to help you change the way you talk about yourself.
