Ok, ok, so I'm not really consistent with this challenge thing. Oh, well. It's free and the stakes aren't high :)
This week's challenge is to try and reset some of the negative self-talk we give ourselves. Whether this means putting positive Post-Its on the mirror, writing in a journal or changing negative thoughts to positive ones out loud, just give it a try! Be aware of what you tell yourself either directly or indirectly. Then give yourself a positive in its place.
Happy thinking!
This is going to be a challenge every day. I think that most of the marathon training for me will be mental. Obviously the physical part is huge, but if I don't think I can do that 20 mile training run, then I can't!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite quotes is: Whether you think you can or whether you think you can't, you're right. (Henry Ford)
I tell my kids that same quote...they don't always get it, but hopefully it will stick eventually.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll be posting that quote to my treadmill. And refrigerator. And bathroom mirror. And computer....
ReplyDeleteThe other one I say, at least to myself, a lot is "That which does not kill you will make you stronger."
