But how?
That’s a very good question, my fellow big dreamers, big thinkers, and future go-getters.
Listen to the positive voice in your head. Eliminate blame;
eliminate excuses. If the blame track or the excuse track plays repeatedly in your mind,
say out loud, “I am responsible for my life and everything that happens to me.” Repeat
this statement until the feeling of anxiety subsides.
Second, listen to yourself when you speak. In your conversation, do you hear yourself
blame others for things that don’t go exactly as you want? Do you find yourself pointing
fingers at your upbringing, your parents’ influence, your family members, your spouse,
or the amount of money that you make? Are you making excuses for goals unmet or
tasks missed their deadlines?
If you can hear your blaming patterns, you can stop them. How? Interrupt yourself when
you’re speaking in a negative tone. Start adding positive connotations to your ideas.
It’s hard to believe in our own ideas if we adopt a satanic persona to our self concepts.
“Optimists are right. So are pessimists.
It’s up to you to choose which you will be.”
