Self-Talk

All of us have a running monologue going on in our heads, as we comment on situations, feelings, and moments in our day. Sometimes the monologue is filled with negative messages ("How could you be so stupid? He really hates you now. You'll never find someone.") Negative thoughts deplete self-esteem and create self-sabotaging actions. We turn people away by the "vibes" we send out.

You can get rid of negative thoughts in two ways. First, picture a street sign in your brain that reads "No dumping allowed." next, go into the computer program in your brain, print out the negative program (the one that says. "You're a jerk, you blew that, no one loves you"), then use the cosmic erasure. Say aloud, "Cancel, clear," press the delete button and type in a new program, one that says "I'm a neat person," " I am a lot of fun to be around," " I have so many interesting things to do and say in my life," "Lots of people want t be around me because I am stimulating, warm, and fun."
