A dear friend sent me today's Monday Morning Motivator tip by John Maxwell and it resonated.
"Dr. Martin Lloyd Jones, at one time the greatest heart surgeon in England, states,
"Most of your unhappiness in life is due to the fact that you are listening to yourself rather than talking to yourself."
Think about it. When you're discouraged, you wake up in the morning and right away, there are streams of thought coming into your mind. You haven't invited them; you didn't ask for them; you are not consciously doing anything to produce them; they just come! They start talking to you."
Find yourself in this observation and do something about it NOW! Be deliberate about increasing your awareness of what your internal dialogue is saying to you and then talk back to it with messages that are aligned to meeting goals that are important to you.
Make it remarkable. Make it count!
