Life Coach, NLP & Hypnosis, Portland, Oregon:5 Steps Toward Great Communication: Step # 5: Improving Self-Talk and Communication

Improving your self-talk can be easy and fun. First you must identify it and have a strong feeling that you’d like to make a change.

Once you’ve defined it, be clear about what you want.

 

Try this:

1. Breathe in to the count of 6, hold the breath for 6 and exhale slowly to your internal count of 12.
2. Feel the increase in relaxation and focus.
3. Consider what control you’d like to have of your internal dialogue.
4. Understand that it’s possible to change and direct it.
5. Begin by noticing the activities, tasks of the day that went the way you wanted and find a simple way to praise yourself. ‘Good job’.
6. ‘Good job’ may be overused, but it says it. I say ‘good job’ to myself after completing a task and I feel refreshed by it and a freedom to continue to the next thing.
7. What could you say to yourself that is helpful?
8. Be a good parent to yourself. A good teacher.
9. Make corrections when necessary, but don’t dwell on the negative stuff.
10. When a criticism comes, say ‘cancel, cancel’…and move on…

By improving how and what you say to yourself, you’ll improve your communication with others.

Enjoy!
