Schedule Positive Self-Talk to Defeat an Inferiority Complex
The most successful people know what they're doing every day. They write out a schedule in a physical or virtual planner. They can tell what they need to do today, tomorrow, next week, and even next month. They might have meetings, vacations, and social events scheduled more than a year ahead of time.
This works for kids and adults, women and men, and people from all walks of life. It's because the human brain was designed for efficiency. The human mind works best when discipline, order, and organization are present. That's what a schedule and a plan give you.
If you're tired of feeling inferior or incapable, you can choose positive emotions by scheduling empowering self-talk sessions instead.
