Take Out the Mind Trash

What stops some of the greatest plans and ideas from coming to fruition?
Mind Trash.
Mind Trash, simply put is the self-inflicted negativity, self doubt, and criticism that all stems within your own mind. It's these thoughts that can derail even the greatest of ideas before they ever see daylight.
Have you ever been sitting in a meeting, with a thought read to share, and you think to yourself: "Don't say it, people are going to shoot it down." or "Put your hand down, this is a terrible proposal"?
We all do it.
When you project confidence, people are receptive to what you are saying. Even if your idea misses the mark, you will have laid a foundation for productive discussion and expansion on the idea you presented.
Take a minute and reflect on how many things you have ended pre-maturely or avoided doing because of Mind Trash. Is it more than a couple of items?
Make the effort today to listen to the things you say to yourself. Focus on tuning out the doubt and negativity. Your results will be endless.
