Day of Delirium #47 - Your Future is in Your Mouth

I have again received a very timely Keith Harrell newsletter that I really want to share with all of you. I firmly believe in this topic and work very hard to follow the advice given below. Please be aware that I did not write this and if you would like more information on Keith Harrell please check out his website.

Your Future Is in Your Mouth

Many of us are familiar with the childhood taunt, "Stick and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me." Although it was a great way to act as though the unkind words that were said to us didn't matter, the truth of the matter is that words do hurt.

What hurts more than what other people say are the words you say about yourself. Negative words may have been spoken over you all of your life. But you don't have to become what other people say. You can rise above any unkind words that were said about you or to you.

You may not realize it, but you are where you are today because of the words you have spoken about yourself. This is so because your future is in your mouth. Your future is not in what other people say about you.

So the key to changing your circumstances and your life is to change what you're saying.

Take a good look at your life and compare it to the words that are coming out of your mouth. Are you saying things like, "I'll be the first one in my company to get laid off." "I'll never find a job in an economy like this." "Everyone in my family died of cancer. It's only a matter of time before I'm diagnosed with it."

Are you starting to see the connection?

The more you say something, the more you believe what you are saying. Expectation goes hand-in-hand with what you believe, and it won't be long before you see what you are expecting.

Unfortunately, many people have fine-tuned the art of negativity. And their negative prophecies are quickly fulfilled. But your words can change your life for the better.

You can start by saying things like: "I'll never go under because I'll conquer every challenge I face." "I'll beat cancer." "I'll always find a way to pay the mortgage."

Words are containers. So why not fill them with a bright future instead of a mediocre existence. The choice is up to you. Remember, your future is in your mouth.

Have a Super Fantastic Week!

Ooooo I can tie this to the IRWTSMN diet that Trixie and Tess are running. My goal is to say "I look great" every day I wake up and see myself in the mirror.
