Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey everyone, Leo Weston here your friendly neighborhood guide to
navigating this crazy thing called life to day, we're diving
into something super relatable, breaking free from those pesky negative
thought patterns that seem to have a permanent residence in
our heads. You know, the feeling right, that little voice

(00:22):
whispering doubts, fears and what ifs whenever you try to
step outside your comfort zone. It's like having an internal
critic who's always ready with a back handed compliment. Well, friends,
it's time to silence that inner savoteur and reclaim your
mental space. Trust me, I've been there too. We all

(00:44):
have those days or weeks when negativity feels inescapable. But
guess what, it doesn't have to be this way. Here
are five key takeaways to help you bright free from
those negative thought patterns for good. First, recognize the pattern.
You've got to catch yourself in the act. Pay attention

(01:05):
to your thoughts throughout the day. When do these negative
spirals start? What triggers them. Once you identify the patterns,
you can start to address them head on. Think of
it like being a detective, investigating those thought crimes and
gathering evidence. Second, challenge those thoughts. Don't just accept them

(01:26):
as gospel. Ask yourself, is this thought really true? Is
there another way to look at the situation? What would
I say to a friend who was thinking this way.
Often our negative thoughts are based on assumptions or distortions.
By questioning them, we can start to see things in

(01:47):
a more balanced light. Ever, notice how sometimes your worries
turn out to be completely unfounded. Third, focus on the positive.
It's like a mental workout. Train your brain to focus
on the good stuff. What are you grateful for? What
are your strengths and accomplishments. Make an effort to celebrate

(02:08):
the small winds and acknowledge your progress. You've got this.
A little positivity goes a long way forth. Practice self compassion.
Be kind to yourself. We all have bad days and
make mistakes. Instead of beating yourself up, treat yourself with
the same kindness and understanding you would offer a friend.

(02:29):
Remember progress is not always linear. It's a journey, and
there will be ups and downs along the way. Finally,
take action. Don't let fear hold you back. Break down
those big goals into smaller, more manageable steps. Celebrate each
milestone along the way. Remember even small actions can create

(02:52):
big changes over time. Think of it like climbing a mountain.
Every step forward brings you closer to the summit. Speaking
of taking action, think about that last project you put
off because you were afraid of failing. Maybe it was
writing that blog post, asking for a raise, or finally
trying out for that dance class. We all have those

(03:15):
moments where fear tries to hijack our dreams. What if
instead of letting those negative thoughts win, we decided to
face our fears head on. What if? Just what if
we surprised ourselves by actually succeeding. The truth is the
only thing standing between you and your goals. Is often

(03:37):
that nagging voice of doubt. But guess what, you have
the power to silence it. Remember those key takeaways, recognize
the pattern, challenge those thoughts, focus on the positive, practice
self compassion, and take action. So, my friends, go out

(03:57):
there and make some magic happen. You are capable of
incredible things. Don't let those negative thoughts hold you back
from living your best life. Keep shining bright, and don't
