Positive Self-Talk

I got off to a bad start today—sleeping in to 1:00 P.M., putting off doing any work for the whole day. As I was doing laundry a few minutes ago (an accomplishment by itself), I told myself, “Come on, Jason. You still have time to do the things you need to do. You just have to kick it up a notch.” Then I considered what I said and thought, “I don’t need to kick it up a notch. I need to kick it a notch. It’s 7:00 P.M. and I haven’t showered yet. I’m at zero notches. Forget kicking it old school. Kicking it preschool would be an accomplishment right now.”

So move over circle and square. I’m taking a shower and washing my hair.
