THE WORDS YOU USE ARE THE WORDS YOU CHOOSE ARE THE THOUGHTS YOU THINK - TOGETHER THEY DESCRIBE AND DEFINE YOUR LIFE. It’s a loop my friends. A loop.
I suggest you get a serious grip on the conversations going on around your dinner table, with your friends over coffee or at work. Those conversations do two very important things.
1. They inform your mind on what is truth (whether it is or not). If you hear it often enough you believe it. Every time you repeat it, you deepen that belief. As you speak it and believe it it seems more and more true.
2. What your mind believes it acts in and causes it to become true in your life. EXAMPLE - an addict truly believes they will die without another “hit” of their addiction. Result is their body reacts by shutting down and operating incorrectly until the hit or fix arrives. TRUTH - fighting through this bodily deception is called withdrawal or DT. When the body has been made to submit, the perceived need subsided and eventually the craving too.
Your leadership conversations have incredible power to release strength in others or paralyze then for life. The conversation is in your control. The impact is significant.
Leaders must choose their words, their beliefs and their conversations carefully.
