Hello Everyone & Welcome Back to the RealPositiveGirl Podcast!
Thank you so much for joining me again!
This week's theme for the podcast is: Be Your Own Mentor
This week I want to talk to share with you how you can be your own mentor!
Mentoring yourself is easier than it sounds. By taking certain steps to understand yourself better, improve on what you feel is lacking & committing to learning & encouraging yourself more, you will be on your way to bettering yourself & igniting personal growth.
Here are some notes from today's episode:
- My whole life, I always had to be the one that kept myself encouraged. And it’s really only because I was put down a lot, spoken to with a super condescending attitude & I lacked people that believed in me the majority of my childhood & adolescent life.
- And those experiences for sure helped me a ton understand that I need to be there for myself. I need to be the first one of the case of picking myself up when I’m down & that if I wait for someone else to do it first, it might not happen for quite some time.
- Encouragement is one of those things that a lot of times we expect to come from outside of us. We usually think someone else needs to come from behind us & lend some motivation, inspiration & encouragement to us when we are down. It doesn’t really seem like something we should have to do for ourselves because there is this thought that we have people in our life to come pick us up.
- But other people are not in control of our feelings or how we rebound from whatever we are going through. Others may be a helpful influence, but aren’t the main resource to look to. You are the only one that has total control over how you’re feeling & what needs to be done to move forward from your current struggle.
- But a lot of time, this isn’t the case. We will have to be the person that is there first to look to the gratitude & remember the blessings & pull ourselves up so we can move on with our lives. And we shouldn’t be looking to someone else to do that for us anyway. We don’t need to rely on others for something we can do just as well & need to be able to do on our own, just in case those relationships change & fade.
- So let’s chat about some tips on how to encourage yourself:
- 1. Remember your past successes, wins & positive experiences.
- 2. Celebrate the progress you’re making towards your goals.
- 3. Have those positive, encouraging influences you can glean from.
- 4. Continue to grow & learn. Momentum in life provides tons of encouragement.
- 5. Speak life (& rewards) to yourself.
Please share this podcast with anyone that may need this encouragement!
