I was in a early childhood center last week.
The school is designed for infant, toddlers and preschoolers.
Coming out of the bathroom, I saw a sign on the wall that was at the height for small children, but I know it was there for the adults in the building.
The sign read something like this, “Words have feelings. Choose your word, choose your mindset.”
Then it had the words “fixed growth” underneath it.
Spot on. What you feel influences what you think and what you think informs your body of what you feel.
When you are unaware of the word choices you choose to make about yourself, your dog, friends and family even your situation and how you describe yourself, you’re telling yourself how to feel without “knowing” it.
When you’re unaware, you are repeating old patterns of thought and outdated beliefs of yourself. You don’t recognize how the word choices are a reflection about you feel about yourself. You have a fixed mindset.
You have the power to shift your mindset by paying attention to the words you choose.
Staying aware of how you use your words to express yourself, you can make the choices of what truly reflects how you feel because you’re listening to how your body responds to the word choices you’re making. By staying present and in tune with yourself, you can become so aware of how you’re showing up in the world too.
Growth requires change and the way you express yourself shifts!
If you’re curious about and are willing to make changes so you are living in alignment within your own values, let’s chat!
