A motivational talk about how believing false negative stories about yourself limits your potential. The speaker argues that self-deception keeps you stuck and shows how to break free from these limiting mindsets.
The thing is, Liz, self deception can mess with your head. When you tell yourselves these negative lies, you start to believe them. Like, again, if you run a narrative long enough in your own mind, it becomes truth, even though it's not true. And so you start to believe this. You begin to see everything through this dark, distorted lens. And, and, and it becomes almost this self fulfilling prophecy. And I've seen people who get in this mode where it's like, oh, it's just, this is what happens to me. This is my life. And many times I'll look at myself when I get into that mode, or I'll look at others and I'll be like, yo, the best thing you can do right now is just get the hell out of your own way.
