Self-talk is the constant conversation we carry on with ourselves, as we perceive what we think, see and hear.
It is the three-dimensional form of thought, made up of words, pictures and emotion.
We build and modify our self-image with our self talk, using words that trigger pictures that evoke a feeling or an emotion.
Our self-image is an accumulation of all thoughts, attitudes and opinions we have perceived and stored about ourselves since childhood. It is the subconscious picture that we have been recording for many years.
This picture controls how we think and how we perform. Once we vividly imagine an experience, it is recorded in our subconscious and we are stuck with it until we make a conscious choice to displace it.
If you choose to make changes in your self-image, you can use "self-talk and visualization" to create a new picture that will enact the changes you desire.
All meaningful and lasting change starts first in
our mind or our imagination and then works its way outward into reality.
Every statement you make has an effect on your subconscious, so it is important to be very careful about what you say about yourself.
Remember that other people can hand you their opinions about you, but what you think about you is what determines your self-image.
