Self-talk is a powerful tool for many, as it helps to boost their confidence. It helps them to stay focussed. Giving positive affirmations, keeps people motivated in their course especially during difficult times. I have also felt self-talk acts as a personal coach – a coach who calms our nerves and push through the challenges. Self -talk is at times best to maintain motivation compared to external motivation. For me, I use self-talk to stay focussed on my goals. I need not self-talk every day, just at times when anxiety could increase. I try to keep my self-talk to positive as negative self-talk could do harm to self-confidence and esteem. Self-talk helps me to keep a relaxed mindset inspire of the challenges and anxious moments Do you self-talk to motivate yourself?

YES! And I talk to myself often. Some of my best plans and ideas come from it. No, seriously. When I can hear the words out loud I can make much better sense of them. It just works for me.

It is one of my hobbies. I often talk to God, myself, and deceased parents. I am asking their guidance to what I am doing or what to do.

hahahahahaah yes! guilty, lol! I always talk to myself, when I was in college I also write to myself, askin what's going on, why I can't focus, why I should need to focus... from there I guess it lessen all the pressures that's been pilling up in my brain... and I can study more that way.

I use self talk based on God's Word as well as positive words used as sports stars who share the information on Twitter.
