Most people believe stress comes from what happens around them - a mistake at work, a tense conversation or a plan that falls apart. But something happens before the stress reaction begins. You say something to yourself about what just happened.
“That always happens to me.”
“I can’t deal with this.”
“This is going to go badly.”
Those words change your emotional tone and influences what you do next. Over time, the thoughts you repeat most often become automatic reactions. Automatic reactions create patterns. Patterns shape results. The Self-Talk Effect teaches you how to interrupt that process.
