These statements were your take on the experience and were not true. But you believed them and stored them as statements of truth according to you. Someone else might have thought: I need to examine what didn’t work and fix it, or I’m proud of myself that I took the risk.

All these statements add positive reinforcement to this person’s belief system and they have a better chance of success next time.

Some days you may wake up thinking that you’re never going to reach your goal, the economy is bad, you don’t have enough skills or time or money. Or you complain to someone that you’ve done so much and are still not seeing results.  Maybe you’ve done something you considered foolish and beat yourself up for it, calling yourself “stupid” or “loser” or even worse.

Take control of your thoughts and you’ll see your life changing before your eyes.

Remember, a successful mindset is your key to a successful future.  Pay close attention to your self talk and all the chatter that goes on inside your head.

To your success and happiness
