If you don't talk to yourself, start

So here's the thing, like it or not - this all starts with and ends with YOU.  You are the captain of your ship, pilot of your plane and the head bitch in charge of your own damn life - you decide what success is for YOU!   

and it all starts with ... how you talk to yourself.  We spend more time in our own heads than anywhere else (okay not everyone, this type of blog is self selecting, so if you're here it's a safe bet you are reflective.   If you just a voyeur or are just here for the anthropology, welcome!).  

You are the editor and producer of what RE-plays in your head.  We are our own first and second lines of editing our thoughts and if you aren't managing that it will manage you.  

I've gotten pretty efficient with intentionally and reflectively editing my thoughts but it isnt always easy and I had to start with breaking it down small.  It can be overwhelming but that doesn't mean you don't do it, it just means you need to be better prepared.  

I have found that talking to myself has better prepared me for the overwhelming situations I run into when I need to adult the most.  Yes, I talk to myself outloud - it sounds different!

so if you don't already talk to yourself, start.  why not?
