Talking To Yourself
Today, I’d
like you to join me in a wonderful little experiment; I’d like you to talk to
yourself. I know you are probably saying, this woman has cut off all of her
hair and has lost her mind. (Or maybe that’s just me talking to myself.)
There is
always a method to my madness. Your
instincts, intuitions and inner-self are trying to tell you something, but you
don’t always pay attention.
Speak out
loud, or sign to yourself allowing no one else to hear or see.
Tell yourself what you really think
about you and listen to what you have to say in return.
This may
sound completely wacky but take a moment and think about it. When you lose
something, you don’t stand around and think about where it is; you actually ask
yourself out loud. When you walk in a room and forget why you are there, you
begin to speak to yourself, commanding your brain to engage with your mind
(yes, they are different) to figure out how you got lost in the first place.
Stepping outside of the boundaries of
your comfort zone requires that you think differently and it enables you to
become more creative and productive in the process.
Ask yourself
the following questions and answer them out loud or sign them where no one else
can see you.
·
What
do I like about me?
·
What
do I love and adore---they are different.
·
What
would I like to achieve this week?
·
I
believe that nothing can stop me, therefore I’d like to--- (complete the
sentence)
This is a wonderful
exercise which should enable you to actually get to know you better. Try not to
argue with yourself too much, allowing you to truly pay attention and learn.
Be you, be well, be
understood.

Thank you Bernice...Your message made a huge inpact on many of us at CHS. We are still speaking about the message a week later. We are still Singing in the Choir...sharing the music with anyone who will stop to listen as we share the journey.
