In this episode, Cindy Esliger discusses the internal voices we listen to that can prove to be one of the most insidious obstacles in navigating our workplaces. She examines how our own negative thoughts and overthinking can sabotage even the most accomplished professionals. So, how do we learn to question our own thoughts? How can we learn to separate facts from fiction in our own minds to embrace self-empowerment and move forward confidently? Cindy is here to help.Our own unchallenged thoughts can impair our decision-making and make us easy targets for manipulation. But just because we think a thing doesn’t mean it’s true. We need to learn to question some of our thoughts, especially the negative ones. To challenge the limiting beliefs with tangible evidence. Changing thought patterns isn’t easy, but Cindy offers three strategies to help: 1) Practice daily thought audits, 2) Get a second opinion, and 3) Focus on progress, not perfection. Cindy posits that reframing our questions doesn’t just change answers, it changes mindset. It shifts focus from fear to possibility. Because negative thoughts aren’t just inconvenient but damaging, it’s important to build our resilience and develop tools to challenge our thoughts. Cindy shares three ways to build that mental muscle: 1) Stay curious, not critical, 2) Normalize self-reflection regularly, and 3) Focus on the progress. Once we are able to build mental resilience, Cindy leads us through practical tools for moving forward. This episode guides us in challenging our own negative thoughts so we don’t just believe everything we think, but counter our limiting beliefs with facts.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Questioning Your ThinkingAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
