Publisher's summary

Are you struggling with low self-esteem?

Are you unconsciously bringing negativity to your relationships with your spouse, family, coworkers, and friends?

Or is there one area of your life you want to change?

If so, you are not alone, and you are closer than you think to changing your life.

Self-talk and how to use it is a popular topic in today’s culture, but this guide goes beyond definitions and motivational phrases. It explores the "how" and "why" of negative self-talk to help you master positive self-talk.

With positive self-talk, you can find the self-motivation to change your life and ultimately lead you to greater success.

Have you heard the phrase, "You are what you believe?" Did you realize this applies to all aspects of life from work, to family, and even your love life?

Maybe you’ve always believed you weren’t great at sports. Or that no one could love you.

Research tells us that positive self-talk can change those beliefs and help you become a great athlete or find your soulmate.

Ethan Kross’ 2014 study on self-talk as a "regulatory mechanism" in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology breaks down what happens in your brain with self-talk, from basic to complex decisions.

Benjamin Gardner’s 2012 research on the habits of the brain ("Making Health Habitual") in the British Journal of General Practice then reveals the power of habit in the brain, especially when it comes to talking to yourself.

Using their research, among others’, provides scientific evidence to better explain and give you the tools to change your life.

In this guide, you’ll discover:

• How to truly love yourself and your body - without committing to a crazy diet or workout program!
• Where your negative self-talk came from (hint: It’s not your fault!)
• Why the phrase "you are what you believe" may be seriously hindering you - but also how it can make you incredibly successful
• Why athletes, world leaders, and celebrities use visualization every day - and why you should, too!
• The 10 little-known (and most efficient!) ways to improve your marriage and family life, all with self-talk!
• The magic of psychology that will get you the promotion you’ve been waiting for
• How to overcome your shyness, enjoy work more, and eliminate your insecurities, even if you’ve been working on this your whole life
• The two most important things you are doing right now that are stopping you from finding love!

...and much, much more!

All of us have areas of our life we want to improve, and whether negative self-talk is affecting many aspects of your life or just one, you can learn to harness the power of self-talk to find success and greater happiness.

Understanding through research how the brain and positive self-talk work together will give you the practical tools to make positive self-talk a powerful force in your life.

If you are ready to find your self-motivation to take the leap towards achieving your dreams with positive self-talk, listen to this audiobook!

Great guide especially for shy people

Great book, especially if like me you are a shy person. Being shy, social situations and making small chat or being assertive can be VERY difficult, so I am grateful for a book like this which explains the process and makes all a lot easier.

life changing for the better.

I want to listen to it again and again. I know i will cope with life now and the people I meet will like me more. Thank you from the bottom to the top .

My awareness of self became more heightened

This particular audio book gently forces you to become aware of your unconscious in ways that you wouldn't even know to tap. During and after the audio, I realized that certain negative aspects of my thought can and do impact me in ways I didn't or couldn't acknowledge as being destructive to a better self. The audio leaves you with a sense of just being aware of your self-determined negativity and that awareness can help you access "self-talk" to upend what you think or believe to be negative into a more positive self.

Great little helper

I really enjoyed this book. It demystifies the subject of social skills in an effective way, providing lots of good hands-on tips that can be followed in real life. I particularly enjoyed the many analogies the author gave.

interesting listen

Everyday I struggle with the voice in my head always telling me I’m never going to be good enough and I feel like this book has pointed me in the right direction on how to stop the negativity going on in my head. This book Inspired me to become vegetarian and meditate more often. I really enjoyed this book a lot. Thanks to the author
