Words

Words.

Words have been on my mind a lot the last few days.  I've been noticing the words I use, and how so often we don't even realize what they mean.  We say things like, "I'm starving", or "my headache is killing me".  Really?  Are we truly "starving" or are we actually being "killed"?  I was finding myself saying how "anxious" I was for Rick to get better.  Did you know that "anxious" means mentally anguished, not excited or happy? 

Proverbs 18:21a says that "Life & Death are in the power of the tongue"  We have the ability to change our destiny with the words we speak.  You can change your situation with the words you say.  Not happy with your business?  What are you saying about it?  Not satisfied with how many people are in your pipeline?  What are you saying about it?

Ever notice how if you start telling a child how smart they are or how bad they are they live up to it?  Well it's the same thing with adults.  Its the same thing when you talk to yourself.  If you constantly tell yourself that no one wants to look at your business, or no one you know can afford your product, well, then, that's what you'll get.  You're getting what you say.  Maybe it's time for you to have a check up with the words you choose.

For the next 24 hours, challenge yourself to only speak words about yourself, your business, your spouse, your children, etc that are things that you WANT TO BE TRUE, but perhaps aren't YET.  Say things like "Everyone I speak with is excited to hear from me."  or "Everyone I come into contact with is happy to help me."  Watch what happens to your outlook, your confidence and your posture. 

Words.  Use them wisely and they'll become a powerful tool in your arsenal of success!


Rick & I believe the best is yet to come for your life, and we're here cheering you on!
