Thank you so much for this. Just listening to it once made me feel so good. I really appreciate your advice.

[doclampton]

That's so encouraging to hear. Thank you for telling me that my suggestions worked for you. Continuing these thought patterns will improve your life immensely.

thank u so much sir...feeling better already!!

[doclampton]

Appreciate your letting me know that this advice worked for you. Amazing, isn't it? Wishing you a fine week.

[brittania1974]

why is the topic all about work, education etc? typical beliefs that success in life is about intellect and a career.......VILE. there are very few people who are EMOTIONALLY successful, most don;t even know what it is, they think they are 'smart' because they get a good job and $, most people are 'book smart' yet when it comes to self expression they are dumb as posts.

[doclampton]

People can definitely lead successful lives without becoming wealthy financially or popular leaders. Self-talk will help an individual become his or her best, whether or not that involves fame and fortune.

[doclampton]

Very much appreciate your compliment. One of my biggest professional thrills is providing professional Speech Coaching (online and in person) for people who want to improve their presentation skills--vividly and dramatically.

This guy speaks and communicates like a pro. This makes me take a look at my own communication.

Time to revise the text book that is my tongue.

Great video!

[doclampton]

You're so gracious to let me know that my guidelines for self-talk are helpful for you. You can be sure I use them daily myself.

[doclampton]

Good question, thanks for asking. The way to overcome that habitual negative response is to replace it with many positive statements to yourself, silently of course in the presence of another. No complex statement is needed, just something basic like "I had the habit of giving in to people who intimidate me, but this time I am not going to do that." Eventually, you will be able to change your way of thinking, reacting, and speaking..

hi doc lampton. i have a problem

and it is deffonately with the way i communicate to myself.

i communicae very negatively about most things. but this one thing is so negative, it stops me taking action. this will sound silly, but when somebody tries to intimidate me, i get intimidated too easily my mind is screaming to defy, thats what i want to do, but subconciously it takes over and i submit, do you have any ideas or methods as to how to combat this negative midset? thank you

[doclampton]

You express your gratitude so warmly, and I appreciate that and commend you. So nice to hear that my video is helping you improve your self-talk. Your life will become more productive and happier every day.

[lukesweetser]

[doclampton]

push the UP button daily? I like that.

[doclampton]

In my speeches and seminars, I share this advice when I talk about motivation. I explain that pushing the DOWN button guarantees a bad day, while pushing the UP button mentally as we get out of bed works like magic. The "UP button approach" mysteriously opens doors for us that otherwise would have been slammed shut.

Glad this mental picture appealed to you. Thanks for commenting.

[xmexdf1]

push the UP button daily? I like that.

[doclampton]

Well said, I agree fully. Thanks for confirming my belief that we should push the UP button in life's elevator to begin every day. That one step will work miracles for us.

It is so true that your life is a result of your thoughts or self-talk. god wants us to dissolve all negativity.
