What are you talking about?

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with The Larsen Protection Team

To yourself - what are you saying to yourself? We listen to others, what they have to say, their comments, their viewpoints but are you listening to the only one that matters? YOURSELF!

What we say to ourselves (and we all talk to ourselves) will have infinitely more impact on where we go in life, than what others say about us. Someone (forgot who) once said "Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you are right!"

So what are you saying to yourself? Make sure it is positive, upbeat, uplifting toward who you want to become! Nobody else can do it for you but yourself.

So, what are you talking about?

Tom,

Interesting thought, what I find is that people are talking to themselves in the same manner that they criticize others.

The guy in the mirror each morning is someone you should know inside and out. If you are overly hard on others, are you as critical of yourself though? I don't find everyone that blames others takes responsibility for screw ups themselves.

- SOLD IS OUR FAVORITE 4 LETTER WORD -

I have been in a class that our comapny offered the class is BOLD (want more info email me)...and one of the tings that we learned ( and i have believed for many years) is what we think about expands.  so if you think bad things (bills, debt, bad relationships ect.) well you wil get more of it... SO think about more money, more business, a great wife (in my case) or a great spouce, great family relationships, then you will see things change.

Also something i have see that has changed my life is live your life from GRATITUDE, come from a giving place and you will see things expand!!!
