Positive internal dialogue.

Visualization works well with affirmations to improve your attitude and self-motivation.
Positive internal dialogue is what I refer to as "attitude talk." I recommend attitude talk as a way to override your past negative programming by erasing or replacing it with a conscious positive internal voice that helps you face new directions. Your internal conversation-that little voice you listen to all day long-acts like a seed in that it programs your brain and affects your behavior. Fortunately, the information in our brains can be reprogrammed. We have the choice to take a closer look at what we're saying to ourselves and start reprogramming for personal and professional success.
Attitude talk differs from affirmations in that attitude talk can only be heard by you, while affirmations are positive statements spoken out loud with power and conviction.
