Encouraging words
Imagine how great it would be to have someone providing you with a constant supply of encouragement. When you get in the habit of encouraging yourself, that is exactly what you can have.
All day long, you are thinking and saying things to yourself. You have the power to choose precisely what those thoughts and those words will be.
Choose to make them positive, uplifting, and encouraging. Make good use of the thousands of opportunities you get each day to provide yourself with support and direction.
When you catch yourself mentally beating up on yourself, decide to stop such destructive behavior right then and there. Instead, give yourself a few words of real, sincere encouragement and notice how much more energized and effective you immediately feel.
In addition, get in the habit of offering encouragement to others whenever you get the chance. That will make you more likely to send even more encouragement in your own direction.
During each waking moment, you are constantly thinking or talking to yourself or others. Choose to use all that dialogue to move yourself and your world in a positive direction.
-- Ralph Marston

Chuck,
I just find it hard to believe that you could look in the mirror and find anything encouraging to say B-)

Chuck,

Thanks for sharing that. It is a good reminder. Don't take ourselves for granted, as we often do of others. Keep your spirit up!

How did he know I am constantly talking to myself??

I find that I do it alot when I am working on a laser job, not talking out loud to myself, by in my head. I am thinking about all kids of goofy stuff, like Sunday nights... I end up reviewing the Sopranos episode while working on stuff, and trying to figure out other angles to the plot line and how they could be changed and why no one got *whacked*. LOL

I am pretty good company for me.

As I always say to me, talking to yourself is the only way to have an intelligent conversation. Isn't that right? Say what!

Who said that?.
