What Is Self Talk

Why it’s important to live in the Now!
As a result of a conversation I had two
days ago here is an important thought I want to share with you.
We are undeniably living in a period of
economic uncertainty and many people are worried about their income, either
being squeezed or disappearing completely.
When we are in such a fearful state our ego
will usually kick in and help us imagine all kinds of disastrous outcomes,
which in turn creates more fear, worry and depression. We then get hooked as
our conscious mind constantly wanders into the “Doomsday Scenarios” it is
inventing. The truth is this scenario has not happened; it may not happen at
all. The point is it is not happening “NOW”. The more power you give to the
negative, the more power it assumes and you are likely to find things happen
that are exactly what you Do not want! I often call this kind of self-dialogue
“monkey mind chatter”.
Fear which is usually the end resulting
emotion of this process is often called False Evidence Appearing Real. On an
emotional scale Love and gratitude are at the opposite end to fear.
You need to take control every time you
catch yourself slipping into the this negative mindset/ process and replace
those thoughts quickly with something you can grateful. for or that creates a
feeling of love - In other words find some positive self talk. Many sceptics
will call this new age thinking, but it works.
