Tame Those Voices In your Head

Tony over at Success From the Nest has a great post on the Playlist of a Successful Mind – where he gives some tips on how to get that inner soundtrack to say what you want it to say.  For those who need to be walked through the process a bit more,  Sharon Melnick has a great video - Be The DJ of Your Inner IPod- on her site.

This is powerful stuff — but also much more difficult than it sounds. Maybe, it is because there is more than one soundtrack.  The soundtrack that you hear the loudest is usually the easiest to control.  You can hear it loud and clear…  The one that is tougher is that one that whispers to you — are aren’t quite sure what it is saying — but generally it is full of doubt — are you sure you can do this?    One of the ways that I quell the inner whisper is to recognize it for what it is — just some healthy self doubt bubbling to the fore.  Then, I go ahead and do whatever it was that I thought I might not be able to do.  The self-doubt helps me push harder and to grow.
