Send us a textMarianne Renner shares powerful insights on how the stories we tell ourselves shape our reality and limit our potential. She explains how our self-talk becomes habitual thought patterns that form our belief systems, often unconsciously sabotaging our outcomes.• Our brains are naturally wired for negative thinking but can be reprogrammed through neuroplasticity• Most common self-limiting stories include "I'm not good enough" and victim mentality ("it's not my fault")• Self-imposed barriers often form by age seven and operate below our conscious awareness• Daily practices to change your self-talk: celebrate wins (past), practice gratitude (present), use affirmations (future)• Overcoming fear of failure by playing the story all the way through and seeing it's not catastrophic• Focusing on what you can control, especially during uncertainty, creates unexpected opportunities• Real success stories of people transforming their careers through changed self-talk• Approaching goals as experiments reduces pressure and fear of failure• Feelings are just alarm signals indicating action, not commands to be obeyed• Simple tools work best because you're more likely to follow through consistentlyPre-order Marianne's book "The Self-Talk: 10 Stories You Tell Yourself That Hold You Back" wherever books are sold and download a free workbook at mariannerenner.com/self-talk.Support the showFollow Playing Injured on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/playinginjured/
