How many negative thoughts do you have about YOU per day? Studies suggest most of us are walking around having 6000 to 60,000 thoughts a day with a whopping 80% of those being negative. The sad part is those thoughts are guiding our behavior and how we show up to work, for our spouse, for our kids, and for ourselves.

What would happen if you changed just a few of your negative thought patterns and changed the self-talk you use with yourself each day?

This episode will give you a few ideas for how to turn your thoughts into more positive, supportive, and confidence building thoughts.

If you currently find yourself feeling frustrated, disappointed, or angry much of the time, maybe it's time for a thought pattern refresh. Stop letting your thoughts guide you through the day laying blame, feeling shame, or projecting negativity.

Find more joy, feel more empowered, and be more aware of how your thoughts can help you be more self-assured, resilient, and confident.

Imagine having deeper connections, feeling less anxiety and overwhelm, gaining clarity, and fully trusting yourself.

Picture yourself not just surviving, but truly thriving.

Is it possible to be 100 percent certain when you make a hard decision? Maybe? Yes. No. It depends. Not really.

All of these are the correct answer.

What makes you certain that a choice or a decision you make is the correct one?

Certainty is a construct that is dependent on knowing all variables. This is rare.

There are so many considerations to what makes a decision the right one or the wrong one. My big challenge with making decisions is I want to spend so much time researching and waying out all the options, it can keep me from taking action. Action gives you quicker answers and more information. Then you can pivot and change your direction.

We want comfort, guarantee, and wisdom at all turning points but that is nearly impossible.

Imagine having deeper connections, feeling less anxiety and overwhelm, gaining clarity, and fully trusting yourself.

Picture yourself not just surviving, but truly thriving.
