Tell yourself

What are you telling yourself that’s holding you back? What are you telling yourself that’s preventing you from being happy?

What are you telling yourself that gives you permission to be less than your very best? What are you telling yourself that gives you an excuse for not taking action.

Every moment of every day you’re interpreting the world for yourself, telling yourself what it means and what to do about it. Each time you tell yourself something, you have an opportunity to make a lasting impact on your life.

So tell yourself yes. Remind yourself why you have chosen to step forward and give yourself permission to do so.

Tell yourself that you can choose a life of joy and fulfillment right now. Tell yourself that you’re fully capable of whatever you decide to achieve.

Take the opportunity to tell yourself, again and again, how truly outstanding your life can be. And then thank yourself for the great advice as you enthusiastically bring it to life.

— Ralph Marston
