Short clip (YouTube short) of Marisa Peer delivering advice on self-talk: she urges listeners to make self-praise habitual and self-criticism rare, using a ‘two lanes’ highway metaphor to choose and inhabit the confident lane. The clip’s purpose is motivational coaching to shift mindset quickly toward confidence.

Chapters

If you want to change your life on a dime, I cannot recommend enough. Make self praise familiar and make criticizing yourself unfamiliar. Move away from that. See, your mind can't go in two lanes. Here we are. This is a highway. There's that lane, and there's that lane. In this lane, I'm confident. I'm making praise familiar. I believe I've got something to offer the world. I'm nice, I'm smart, and this lane is. Oh, God, I'm really anxious and I get things wrong, and I'm not very good. But you can't be in both lanes. There's no way you can drive in both those lanes simultaneously. So decide which lane you're going in, which is always that one, and stay in it.
