Stop Negative Self-Talk
Right now, I am trying to better understand my internal self-talk. Why is so much of the internal self-talk negative? Is it possible to stop the negative self-talk?
This article can help you stop negative self-talk in 3 easy steps.
If you want to read even more about self-talk, read the great book “Untethered Soul” by Michael Singer with these fantastic quotes:
Your inner growth is completely dependent upon the realization that the only way to find peace and contentment is to stop thinking about yourself.
There is nothing more important to true growth than realizing that you are not the voice of the mind — you are the one who hears it.
Your definitions of desirable and undesirable, as well as good and bad, all come about because you have defined how things need to be in order for you to be okay

You Need to Have More Bad Ideas
I am in the middle of running a 5-day Innovation Champion Training with about 150 participants from India, Germany, Spain, France, South Africa, Pakistan, Malaysia, Hong Kong, etc. One of the concepts we teach in the training is the importance of creativity. We often struggle to come up with fresh ideas. We often tend to think that all the great ideas have been used up. Well, that’s not true. So, is there a way to find a good idea? Yes, by befriending your bad ideas. They’re your friends on the path to great ideas.
Thank you Andrea for sending me this article!
