It doesn’t matter how tough you are, we could all use a confidence booster every now and again.
If someone is constantly tearing you down, imagine how that can affect you and your performance. If you keep getting it “wrong” then you might start to feel like you will never get it right.
What if that person tearing you down is you? What if you don't even realize it?
What if you're that voice in someone else's life?
For Tammy Barlette, a prior Air Force pilot turned mental performance coach, she made the discovery that speaking positivity and life can impact your capabilities in many ways.
Key Takeaways
- Embrace the belief others have in you. A big part of how you show up is what you believe about how you're showing up and how you see it.
- Recognize the signs and become self aware of when you're practicing negative self talk.
- Dig in to how you’re feeling to figure out where that negativity is coming from.
