Do you ever talk to yourself? 

Sometimes it can do us an immense amount of good to stop and really talk to ourselves. But what do we say? How do we say it? And how can we ensure that it has the maximum effect upon ourselves? 

Join Lee as he discusses the valuable technique of self-talk, and how to recognise the best way of approaching yourself.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
What you say to yourself will drive your actions and behaviours. The voice inside your head is the most important factor when it comes to effective change.
Do you naturally see things with a positive or negative slant? Do you possess a fixed mindset or a growth mindset? Lee points out a handy set of guidelines to help you determine your own outlook.
The engagement equation is Credibility + Reliability + Intimacy ÷ Self Orientation
This formula states that the more we focus upon ourselves alone, the more detrimental the effect on trust.
If you’re a leader, manager or growth agent, and if you wish to use a get the best from your staff, it can be beneficial to approach your style with a growth mindset. A consultant generally acts with a fixed mindset, that is to say, they are the fountain of knowledge, and have no desire to improve the knowledge of others. Coaches act with a growth mindset, hoping the lead others into finding information and answers for themselves.
Sports stars often talk about their attitude contributing to their success. Positive internal talk can improve your performance in life.
Whether you think you will, or whether you think you won’t, then you’re probably right.
