Did You Hear What You Just Said?

adult-18086_640Nugget: “Our attitudes control our lives. Attitudes are a secret power working twenty-four hours a day, for good or bad. It is of paramount importance that we know how to harness and control this great force.”~ Tom Blandi

Reflection drill: What you say and how you say it have a significant affect on both you and your listener. Choose the words that convey the most positive and powerful influence possible.

Why it matters: Speak enthusiastically — motivate and inspire others.

Speak in a positive, powerful and uplifting manner for the rest of the day. Then notice how it changes the way you experience the world and how you feel at the end of the day.

Thinking drill:

Is your language predominately positive or negative?

What is an example of a negative expression you commonly use, and what positive words could you replace it with?

What words could you change right now to create a more positive experience?

What’s your take away?
