We silently talk to ourselves all the time. It’s a normal and healthy way to shift the gears in our minds when it comes to thinking things through. This is something psychologists refer to as Self-Talk. These conversations you have with yourself could be about a million different things from what you want to prepare for dinner to what others think of your new car.


Because we’re constantly having these silent conversations though, there’s nobody around to interrupt us or disagree with us when we have self-talk that is discouraging, demeaning, irrational, or untrue. If you’re in an emotionally vulnerable place and you begin to have these ideas, you may find yourself talking yourself into some dark places. You may start to say and believe things like, “I’m not clever enough.”, “I’m not fit enough.”, or, “I’m not good enough.” This kind of self-talk can be dangerous and can lead you down a negative thinking cycle that gets worse and worse over time. If this becomes the case, you’ll lose motivation to do the difficult daily tasks that life demands of you. Here are simple tips you can try if your self-talk is hindering you.
