28 Oct Susan’s Sound Advice #374
I believe our greatest barrier to improving in life is our self-talk. We can be our own worst enemy! We all know the phrase “you are what you eat”. Well, the same principle applies to your thoughts. You are what you think you are. The same goes for the words from others. In my book, I tell the story about some men trying to win a race. They didn’t look to be in the greatest shape, and the crowd made loud comments like “they’ll never make it”, “they are too fat”, etc. One by one, the men dropped out, falling to the ground in exhaustion. One of them, the heaviest of all, kept on going and made it to the finish line. Why? Because he was deaf! The wisdom of this story: Never listen to other people’s tendencies to be negative or pessimistic. They steal your most wonderful dreams and wishes. Always think of the power words have. Everything you hear and read will affect your actions! BE POSITIVE and above all, BE DEAF when people tell you that you cannot fulfill your dreams. Always think, “I CAN do this!” Susan Korwin Life and Style Coach
