1. As you awaken turn on your audio machine - choose the CD etc the previous night. This should be some kind of affirmation audio ie Inner Talk for a Confident Day. Lie there and let the thoughts into your head.
2. AS you get out of bed, pay attention to the positive quotes you've collected and surrounded yourself with, on the wall, mirror, firdge etc.
3. As you get dressed, play music that 'makes your heart sing'.
4. At the same time of dressing, repeat your chosen affirmations of the day. Do this in front of the mirror for 10 minutes :eek: and continue this through the day.
My OH would think I was barking mad if I started sticking hundreds of post it notes all over the house with 'I'm a lovely person' and what have you written on it!
In normal times sometimes 10 minutes is all I've got between getting up and running for the train:o :rotfl:26.2.19/14.1.19: T MC 3629.26/3629.26 : VM 0% 1050/13876.59 : W 0% 100/1485 = 4409.26/18990.85 =25.17%28.1.19/28.1.19 Hubs 0% £400/£2,977 =13.44%SPC 2019 #073

:rotfl: Yeah right!!!
Here's the reality:
1) jump at the squawk of the alarm, beat it until it shuts up
2) Scrape cat off your head
3) attempt to move comatose child sleeping horizontally across the bed with one or more toes stuck in your ear.
4) As you get out of bed, wipe foot that landed in the barfed up furball on the floor next to your bed
5) Root through washing pile on floor for the shirt that you've worn for the past 3 days because you can't be bothered washing
6) As you get dressed, fall over whilst putting on tights and repeat your chosen swearwords repeatedly for 10 minutes
7) Stab self in eye whilst attempting to apply mascara
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
