Thank you for the reminder krnel.
One of the world's renowned self-help guru Tony Robins says he performs his own 'self-talk ritual' before entering the stage to this day.
I think the problem is NOT that people don't have self-talk, however, they have too much NEGATIVE self-talk.
In olden days it was enough to 'observe or contemplate' thoughts one had because they had no sense of AMOUNT of negativity that is even imaginable in these days...
To your point, we should all have conscious self-talk and keep it honest and positive!
Thank you for sharing krnel!
Keep it honest, stay positive, keep it honest and admit the negative ;) Thanks for the feedback.
