Take The Brakes Off Your Life - Tweak How You Speak

What are the new things you want accomplish or change with this new year?

Do you actually want to achieve them? Or just dream them?

If you truly want to make your dream a reality then there's an important first step:

Take your foot off the brakes!

Just like having your foot on the brake of your car will make it really hard to get to wherever you want to go, there are verbal "brakes" that are making it much much harder for you to get to where you want to go in life. Here are some simple ways to take the brakes off just… 

Tweak How You Speak:

• "I am" is past, present, future, use it with attributes you want in all 3 places: "I am confident"
• Put something you no longer want where it belongs: In the past. "I used to make bad drinking choices." "Before today, I wasn't good at setting boundaries"
• Don't use "Don't". Put things how you want them, for some things we want to avoid them in our life, so phrase it so: I avoid alcohol, I avoid sugar, etc.
• Remind yourself of what you move towards: I drink water, I eat organic items, etc.
• Allow for possibility in your future: I haven't made a million dollar….yet! I don't have 6 pack abs, yet!
• Give yourself choice: I don't play guitar because it hasn't been important so far. I'm still in this challenging relationship because I haven't decided to leave.

Does taking the brakes off magically get you to where you want to go? Nope, but it makes it easier, faster, and funner! 

What are some common phrases that you could tweak to make them more empowering to live the life you want?
