Change Your Mind, Change Your Life

I was watching the Netflix docuseries Full Swing over the weekend.  There was an episode about Pro Golfer, Wyndham Clark, and how he hired a psychologist and performance coach to help get him out of a negative cycle.

It worked so well for him and in such a short amount of time, he went from being on the verge of leaving the tour to winning a major!!  Incredible!

We can get stuck in patterns of negativity and belittling ourselves.  And you may not know how destructive this can be to your life!

The way we talk to ourselves is SO important.  After doing this work for a while, I can tell when people are caught in this negativity and not speaking to themselves kindly - because it is happening with the words they speak:

“This is hard.” 
“I’ll shut up now.” 
“I’m not good at X.”
“I got screwed.”

These are just a few examples of things that I hear.  I know if this little bit is slipping out, there must be even more negativity going on inside.

I understand this because I deal with this ALL the time!  That voice in my head can be brutal!  It’s constantly comparing, criticizing, judging, complaining - all the things.  

I’ve said this many times before but I believe your pain is your purpose.  My pain is that voice in my head which is now why I help others get it in check because I know how disempowering it can be.

We don't always have a choice in the thoughts we think.  But we do have a choice if we want to believe it.

Changing your mind CAN change your life and help you accomplish things you thought were once impossible.

Whether you're a pro athlete, or just someone with big goals, you can’t do it alone.  Whether it’s with me, a psychologist, another coach, whatever - if you want more from life, find someone to help you accomplish it.
