Pushing Past It

One more thing in case you’re wondering HOW to push past the point of perceived limitation.

We all have thoughts all the time (well…most of us). It just so happens that whenever we come across a challenge, these thoughts are mostly negative. Try these two approaches:

1. Don’t think at all. Stop over-analyzing. Turn that damn chatter box of a head off! Just go for it. You will think about the task once it’s completed.

2. Substitute negative with positive
Example: “I don’t think I can do this” à “This teacher won’t let me get away with it so I might as well do it; maybe it won’t be as bad as I think it will. The teacher won’t laugh at me – she’s a pro – if she does, I’ll smack her” (or something along those lines)

Happy pushing!
