From 100 MORE Days of Weight Loss, Day 39
Change the negative words you say to yourself.
Instead of saying “I can’t do anything right,” hold your head up high and tell yourself, “I’m important, I’m valuable, and I count in this world.”
Here are my answers to the three questions at the end of the lesson.
1. Create two positive statements to use for your self-talk.
I am important and valuable in the world.
I do great work and am good at helping people.
I am strong and capable, even on days when I don’t feel that way.
2. Write them on a card or piece of paper, then post them where you can read them often.
Did this and posted them by my computer.
3. Live as if these statements are true, then record your response.
Reading these out loud is always so powerful. It rebuilds my self-esteem and makes me feel more confident about los of areas in my life, including my weight.
Today was perfect for this lesson- I did a one-hour radio interview this morning with a station in Nebraska. I love doing interviews but they also make me nervous and I have to do lots of self-talk to pump myself up. The interview went great!
