Watch Your Mouth

It's not cute to talk badly about ourselves. If we wouldn't tear a stranger down with really critical words, why would we do it to ourselves? In today's episode, I discuss how to stand in your greatness and stop all that negative self-talk. I haven't always been kind to myself. But when I learned that the subconscious mind's job is to make our thoughts reality, I realized I needed to be more mindful of my thoughts about myself, my business and relationships. So, listen to today's episode to hear ways that you can learn how to watch your mouth when talking to yourself.   Show Notes: [1:00] - It's critical to tell ourselves to "watch your mouth" when we talk to ourselves.

[17:20] - Being spiritually grounded helps Jameelah's subconscious mind and conscious mind become aligned. [20:00] - Our subconscious mind is like a task minded employee, it just follows your directions to a T without any form of critical thinking.  [23:11] - If there is a specific outcome you want, and it aligns with the will of God, it's going to happen. [25:28] - Our brains are wired to operate in the past, it's a bank of memories that our mind and body uses to protect us from danger. [28:12] - Speaking like the person you want to be and believing you deserve good things can help manifest that into reality. [32:00] - It's not the things Jameelah has that has made her life great.
