Change Your Life by Swapping Out These 5 Words…
Do you ever get stuck, feel unmotivated, or as though life is just not working in your favor?
Here in this article, we will discuss five ordinary words or expressions that may be stalling you—and what to replace them with in order to feel more confident, inspired, and in charge. Let‘s get started.
1. “I can’t”
Saying “I can’t” shuts the door on progress. It tells your brain to stop trying.
Instead, try:
“I’m learning how to…”
“I’m working on it.”
“I haven’t figured it out yet.”
These keep the door open and assist you in keeping moving forward.
2. “Failure“
Failure sounds like the end. But in reality, it‘s merely part of learning.
Try this instead:
“I‘m learning.”
“That didn‘t work—what can I try next?”
Mistakes don‘t indicate that you‘re failing. They indicate that you‘re growing.
3. “I‘m overwhelmed“
You‘re not overwhelmed—you‘re just in high demand!
Try saying:
“I‘m being stretched.”
“I‘ve got a lot on my plate right now, and I‘m handling it.”
Give yourself credit. You‘re stronger than you think.
4. “But…”
Each time you say “but,” you nullify what went before.
“I want to begin my business, but I‘m too busy.”
“I‘d like to try, but I‘m afraid.”
Rather, substitute it with:
“and.”
Or simply eliminate the excuse altogether: “I want to begin my business—and I‘ll figure out how.”
Own your goals. Don‘t talk yourself out of them.
5. “I hate…”
Hate is a very strong, negative word. It fogs your mind and lowers your energy.
Rather than saying:
“I hate traffic.”
“I hate liars.”
Say:
“I like open roads.”
“I value honesty.”
Staying in the positive keeps your mind clear and your energy peaceful.
