The Power of Inner Dialogue
Are you aware of your inner dialogue? If not, you canbe aware of it at this moment. Just get quiet and listen,there is a voice inside you that is constantly talkingto you all the time. If you have ignored the power of this little voice,you have been missing a great tool for developingyour personal power. Your inner dialogue can be good or bad.If you have a positive thinking habit, your innerdialogue most likely is positive, and you will bevery fortunate to enjoy the joy of positive living.Unfortunately, most people don?ˉt have a positivethinking habit; their inner dialogues are negative.Although they are working hard to improve their situations,they are literally pulling themselves back all the time,and wondering why there seems to be no progress. How much success and how much fulfillment you getin your life is directly promotional to the qualityof your inner dialogue. Since the inner dialogues are so important to yourpersonal development, we really need to have a betterunderstanding of the roles it plays. Our inner dialogue is doing constant judgmentand evaluation. Whatever we see, hear or sense, our inner dialoguewill give us a judgment of good or bad, right or wrong,based on our past experiences. This is very importantfor our survival. If you see a snake, your inner dialoguewill tell you it is dangerous, if you see a flower,your inner dialogue will tell you it is beautiful.Your inner dialogue plays a role of guardian,protecting you from dangers. However this inner dialogue is not always helpfulwhen it comes to developing your personal power.Do you have a habit of saying the word "can't". If you do,I suggest you eliminate this word from your language.This may be the most valuable suggestion I can give you.BE CAREFUL when your inner dialogue is telling you that youcan?ˉt do something. To protect you from danger, your inner dialoguehas the tendency to avoid doing new things.Its intention is good, it is trying to protect you,but at the same time, it gives you too much limitation.In order to grow, you must take new challenges, learn to donew things. Suppose you want to make a million dollarsbut you never did this before, you search the entiredatabase of your past experiences stored in your mind,and could not succeed to find a way. Your inner dialoguewill conclude "You Can't". It will try hard to convinceyou that what it says is true, because it does not wantyou to be in danger. However, in reality you must learnnew skills and new mindset of a millionaire in orderto have the new experience of making a million dollars.You will never find the solution in your old database. Replace negative inner dialogue with positive ones Don't take it for granted for whatever your innerdialogue tells you. Think it one step further. Is thatwhat it says really true? Be aware of your negativeinner dialogue, and replace it with positive ones.That is all you have to do to achieve a successfuland more fulfilled life. Since it is so simple, why isn?ˉt everybody doing it?There is only one reason and that is not everyoneknows what is good and what is not good.This may sound like non-sense, but it is true.The majority of people don't know what is good for themand what is not. When people have a problem, they go outto seek for solutions. They buy books, go to seminars,seek for mentor ships, and hopefully these will solvetheir problems. Unfortunately, these things will neversolve all their problems, unless they... Change the approach. Only when they realize that the solution is notoutside of them, but inside of them, they will startto solve their problems. If you forget everythingI talked to you so far, remember this "There is asolution inside you to every one of your problems??You don?ˉt have to go outside to seek for solutions;the solution is already inside you. There is a part of youthat is eternal, which knows answers to all your problems.You only need to get connected to it. Listen to thiseternal part of you and you will never have any problems.This part of you knows what is good for you and whatis not, because it knows how the entire universe works,indeed it is the universe itself. I don?ˉt want to confuse you by talking too much aboutyour eternal self, or true self, I only want you to knowyou can have access to this huge power of the universe.When you have it, nothing is beyond your reach. Listen to your true self more and more, you will knowthe right answers more and more. Eventually, you willreplace your negative inner dialogue with positive ones.You don?ˉt have to work hard on this, it happensautomatically once you get into the habit of listeningto your true self. To help you speed up this process, I would like to sharewith you a technique I learned from Dr Deepak Chopra. Positive inner dialogue exercise. Every time you look into a mirror, make eye contact withyour image, and repeat silently the following sentences. (1). I am totally independent of the good or badopinions of others. (2). I am beneath no one. (3) I am fearless in the face of any and all challenges. These are some of the best inner dialogue you can have.Repeat them often; make them deeply embeddedin your subconscious mind. You will see yourlife change automatically.

Lifes Curveballs Do you realize how good you have it? Yes, everyone has problems, but it could be worse than what it is now. Yes, everyone has a bad day or two, but it could be worse. Life can throw some serious curveballs at us sometimes. Is Your Glass (Ceiling) Half Empty or Half Full? The infamous "glass ceiling" is blamed for business issues for women from poor salaries to lack of corporate advancement. This invisible barrier holds many women captive in unpleasant work environments, settling for pay which is far below industry averages, accepting weak titles and agreeing to poor advancement opportunities. Dealing with Criticism and Rejection Whether it's the other kids making fun of you at school, you just received a really harsh performance evaluation from your boss, you got turned down by the girl you asked out, or you didn't get the job you interviewed for, rejection and criticism hurts. I won't tell you not to take it personally, because it is personal. You are the one who was criticized. You are the one who was rejected. No matter how much self-confidence you have a part of you cringes every time someone rejects you or criticizes you. You are the one who has to get rid of that awful feeling in the pit of your stomach. What do you do to make yourself feel better? Universal Thought Systems Language #3 Before we are able to use the Universal Thought System in a positive expansive manner, we must learn to use certain words in our language more effectively. The prime characteristic of the Universal Thought System is its consistency. It may not be used to manipulate. It may not be used to gain an advantage. It treats everyone equally. It eliminates the negative side of opposites. Why is this Universal Language so critical to our progress? In our thoughts and actions, we either seek idols or we seek truth. When we find the truth all our answers are provided. Truth contains all answers to every problem. Truth has always existed and will always exist. Our beliefs and feelings color our truth. They act as filters between our truth and our illusions. Self-esteem Boosters: 5 Action Points ? Make a list of all your accomplishments in life so far. Whatever you consider an accomplishment qualifies ? your education, successful parenting, promotions, and skills you have acquired, overcoming adversity, a happy marriage, weight loss etc. Include everything; leave nothing out.

Most likely you do. You have achieved something that someone else hasn't. And you should give yourself credit for that! Your Thoughts Are Powerful The only thing between you and your desire to be successful and wealthy is one single fact: You are not successful or wealthy because of how you think. This little known fact keeps many from reaching their goals of success and wealth. 11 Great Ways to be Positive about Change Look for the positives!Seek them out - those little scary places that it's challenging to let yourself go to - the positives are genuinely scary, because they give you hope and it's hard to let go of all the fears you have right now - so hanging onto them is the easiest path!So try letting yourself go, just for the heck of it!Take that step back from being 'done to' and take the initiative. At work, at home or wherever, this can be a great time, if you let it. There are loads of ideas why. Here are eleven of my favourites...Personal GrowthChange gives us great moments for self-development and personal growth. It is in times where there is a lot going on, where we have to get out of our box to think, even when change is imposed, that we move forward.Involving OthersDuring change periods we can create relationships that are new - and we, as managers, have a great chance to bring others into our confidence and into our network.AdventureThere is something about change, large or small which creates 'something different' from our routine day. This is pretty cool really. We are being provided with stimulating mental exercise to make the best of things happening differently. It might not look that way, but change brings adventure!Building it inLearning about big changes, means that we can closely observe why those changes are necessary. We have to make radical changes because we have strayed well off course. So as we learn, we can make provision to have some minor course corrections rather than completely the wrong destination.ChallengeIn his great book, 'The Inner Game of Work', Timothy Gallwey talks about the fine balance between security and challenge being what gets people motivated. By creating new things to learn, to do, we stretch our people - and ourselves.OpportunityChange brings new opportunity. For learning; for understanding ourselves better; for new perspectives; for different roles. These can be grasped personally or they can be dwelt on miserably. The better choice is to go for it!Team BondingChange exercises, big and small can be great to develop a team. Where there is the opportunity to work together, manager with their closest people there are often places, moments where the team spirit; the trust and the shared commitment - the 'Dunkirk spirit' even, enables future potential of a team to be loosened.HonestyWhere radical change proves necessary it enlightens those involved that where they are is not where they need to be. Carrying out a review of why serious change is necessary and seeking the real truth is very revealing. The icing on the cake for those involved in organisational change processes is to create a feedback loop that renders future major change unnecessary.ChoiceChange is not truly necessary. Change is about choice. You have the choice whether to accept it positively or not. It is your choice and everyone has that - believe it or not. No-one is holding you down to prevent you getting away. Take personal responsibility for the choices you make.FocusChange gives the opportunity for and usually gets really down to the gist of the issues that have precipitated the need. This is good. Your organisation is realising that things need to be different, for all sorts of reasons, but usually for the health of the organisation and that means you, usually. For some it may mean loss of role, status and even job - now what positive opportunity does that bring!PassionAnd finally, we have the opportunity to review our own roles, not just in the workplace, but in life too. Are you passionate about your work - or are you just muddling through? Are new opportunities presented to you personally through change - within or without the place where you work today? What is your personal passion and how do you work towards making that how you spend every day of your life? How to Begin to Overcome Shyness The one thing that is absolutely vital to overcoming shyness is DESIRE. You must want to, badly. Use Your Imagination to Create the Self You Want "Every prayer - every thought, every statement, every feeling -is creative. To the degree that it is fervently held as truth, to that degree will it be made manifest in your experience." When Laughter Does Not Come Easily The surge of emotions. Positive Self Talk - What Should You Say? How do you explain things to yourself? With positive self talk or negative? What we say to ourselves radically affects the quality of our lives, and our ability to do things effectively. How useful is it to always tell yourself "impossible," "more problems," "never," and "I can't?" Time To Give Up Resentment Resentment isn't a spectacular emotion, but it is long-lasting and it easily becomes a way of life. When this happens, it blocks all possibility of successful and healthy relationships. To Compete or Co-create? - That is the Question! As a financial economist my motivation has long been to understand a simple academic koan: "why is there scarcity in an abundant world?" A koan is a question in the history and lore of Chan (Zen) Buddhism, to which the answer is inaccessible to rational understanding, yet may with great effort be obtained through accessing our higher collective mind. The motivational force driving my financial studies and research rests in the little known fact that the planet earth and this universe have such great abundance that no living being need lack anything! A Solution For Trouble? Try This Breath Of Fresh Air! I just heard the story of a man who hired a plumber to restore an old farmhouse. After he had finished a rough first day on the job he realized he had a flat tire which made him lose an hour of work; then his electric drill quit, and then his truck refused to start. As his customer drove him home, the plumber sat in stony silence. Think Positive: Using Affirmations to Create Health, Wealth and Beauty You've heard the buzzwords: Attitude is everything! Change your perspective! Have a positive outlook! But, can these words really change our future? And if so, how? How to Experience Life as a Thrilling Adventure "Adventure isn't hanging on a rope off the side of a mountain. Adventure is an attitude that we must apply to the day to day obstacles of life - facing new challenges, seizing new options, testing our resources against the unknown, and in the process, discovering our own unique potential." - John AmattThere is an old story about a mountain climber who had trained many years to reach the highest peak in the western hemisphere, the Aconcagua located in the Andes Mountains of western Argentina. Peak Performance Peak Performance. It means being at the top of your game, feeling supremely confident, feeling like everything you do is effortless and acheives its goal, feeling resilient and detached from the outcome, being in the flow, being in the zone, feeling relaxed, feeling happy and joyful, having a sense of clarity and certainty about everything that you do, feeling a sense of fullness in your life, indeed feeling fulfilled.
