Thinking and speaking in Vivid Emotional Terms will hit a nerve and stick.  It becomes real rather then abstract. It’s easier to remember something that has affected you emotionally

Experience victory mentally before you do physically. How did you envision the final outcome? Check your expectations and begin to dream. See your dreams become realities inside your mind’s eye before they really happen.

When the stakes are high, expectations are through the roof, everyone is counting on you, you only have one shot, messing this up would mean utter and complete failure and then….you respond poorly. Do you fear this happening to you?

Our words are powerful, and they can build up or tear down. Unfortunately, many of us fall prey to the common mental mistake of Negative Self Talk, and may not even be aware of it.
