How Is Your Speech

Speech is the mirror of the soul; as a man speaks, so he is. – Publilius Syrus

Language is everything to our lives.

How we talk about who we are, what we want and what we get is so, so important.

The question is: how is your speech?

Do you build yourself up, or tear yourself down?

Do you dream and think big, creating solid plans and take action, or do you think small and tell yourself “It probably won’t work?”

Do you focus on strengths and what you can learn from experiences, or do you lament weaknesses and say “Oh well, sh*t happens?”

How does language work in your life?

This creates a short little “despair loop” which takes the person out of possibility and back to “reality.” The truth…
