There is no doubt that we are social animals. We are hardwired with the desire to connect with others. We spend vast amounts of time, energy and money on attracting others to us. And its no wonder we do! Healthy relationships are a source of great joy. Like anything else, the quantity and quality of relationships we attract are heavily determined by our habitual thoughts, attitudes, and beliefs.
Your habitual thoughts about relationship will determine your ability to:
Overcome shyness
Attract others
Create and maintain friendships
Be intimate
Create and maintain love relationships
Resolve conflict
Be open with others
Deepen communication and understanding
Maintain a satisfying marriage
Thats quite a list! Lets examine the role of self talk in just one of them.
Overcoming
Shyness
Fear is at the heart of what stops us from enjoying being with
others. It may be slight fear, where you talk yourself out of approaching
someone you would like to meet. It may be social anxiety where discomfort
of being around people has you avoid them. If you find you are critical
of others, it may actually be a defense mechanism you are using as an
excuse to maintain distance from people. This type of common shyness and
social anxiety may come from an inner-dialogue such as this:
"They won't like me anyway"
"I'm not interesting"
"They aren't worth it."
"They are too different from me"
"I never know what to say"
"I might look foolish"
"I know what he/she is going to say anyway. There's no point in trying."
Imagine how much enjoyable interaction is missed because of negative self-talk such as this? Conversely, how much more joy and connection with others is created when behaviors and feelings are driven by an inner-dialogue such as this?
I easily talk to anyone I have a desire to meet.
I know that others want to connect - just like me. I like to put people at ease.
Others appreciate and respect me for being the first one to break the ice.
More and more I am noticing that people enjoy connecting with me.
By using these affirmations for a few minutes
each day, your self-talk will begin to support your efforts to connect
with others. The result? You will begin to experience increased poise
and confidence in social situations. You will begin to enjoy a deep sense
of comfort and connection to people. You absolutely deserve to feel this
level of joy and connection. Try affirmation training for a few weeks
and see the powerful difference it makes in your life.
