Watch Your Mouth: Your Words Wire Your Brain
Something happens…
and within about three seconds, you turn it into a statement about who you are.
You procrastinated → "I'm so lazy."
You overspent → "I'm terrible with money."
You missed the workout → "See? I can never stick to anything."
You felt awkward → "I'm just not confident."
