1/3

I probably used to be one of the most negative people in the world. I felt likelife was a continuous struggle and I had been dealt one of the worst hands, butwhat could I do? This is just life. Or so I thought.

Ill never forget the first time I heard that the way I was talking to myself, directly influenced every aspect of my life. We can be our own worst enemy at timesand our internal conversation can be extremely limiting. Like most people, I was blind to this somewhat obvious piece of information.

To say I felt like I had just won the lottery once I really understood this, wasan understatement. Why? because suddenly I learned that the negative thoughts Ihad, werent facts at all, but instead self imposed limitations that I was putting on myself which I also had the power to remove. Over the last decade, it hasbecome very clear to me that most of us actually have very similar negative thoughts. Here are some of the most common negative thoughts we all have and what weshould think instead.
