You think thousands of thoughts every day. You talk to yourself more than anyone else. You are your most trusted advisor and confidant. Many of the conversations you have with yourself you would never share with anyone else because it would reveal the "real" you. The ones filled with self-doubt, worry, sadness, guilt, hurt, and disappointment. But this is not the "real you" at all. This is the you that your ego and belief systems have created. You created these negative beliefs and accepted them as truth. Sadly, nothing could be further from the truth. Where did these false ideas about you come from? They mostly came from others; parents, teachers, co-workers and friends. Maybe they planted a seed by saying something like "she's fat" and you nurtured those comments to the point where they became your truth. You are allowing your entire life to be controlled by some obscure comments that were made years ago. No one has the right or power to dictate who you are. Only you know who you really are and what is in your heart. When you were born, you entered this world without the burden of your current negative belief system. You entered this world as a beautiful bundle of joy filled with unlimited potential and possibilities. I'm here to tell you that you haven't changed. You are and always will be a beautiful bundle of joy with unlimited potential and possibilities. The only difference is what you give your attention to. Let me ask you a question. If you have stopped all the negative talk you currently have with yourself such as; – I'm too fat – Why would anyone want to love me? – I will never be skinny – I always fail And the list goes on and on… How would you feel? Do you think you would feel emotionally lighter? Do you think you would feel happier? Do you think you would feel more confident? Now, how do you think your life would change if you went one step further and modified your self-talk by only talking positively about yourself. If you take the time to focus on what you like about yourself and focus only on your emotional state becoming positive to the point that you will be able to achieve anything. Once you start looking for the positive things in yourself, you'll be surprised to realize that your greatness has always been just beneath the surface. You were never anything other than that bright bundle of joy that entered the world years ago. It's easy to discover the positive aspects of yourself by asking yourself a few questions. – What am I good at? – Who benefited from my being in the world? – Who am I, what is in my heart, what only I know? – What do I like about my body? Your goal is to feel good now. How do you feel now? If you observe only what you feel is positive about you, you will feel good, you will be happy. Decide right here and now how you want to feel. Decide to always look for the good in yourself and appreciate that good. What does all this have to do with weight loss? All!!! Your emotional state is the control valve that determines what you draw into your experience. How you talk to yourself creates your beliefs and programs your subconscious mind. So you have to ask yourself if you want your beliefs and subconscious programming to be based on false negative thinking. Or you want your beliefs to be based on the truth that you are and always have been a perfect being. Start loving and caring for yourself today. Allow the joy, playfulness, and enthusiasm you naturally had as children to flow into your everyday experiences. Allow yourself to celebrate every success, no matter how small. Love and appreciate yourself every chance you get. Do this every day and watch your weight begin to melt away, just as your old negative beliefs about yourself begin to dissolve.
