You will become faster at recognizing negative self-talk and learn to reframe your thoughts into more realistic, empowering, and positive self-talk. You will learn that your thoughts are not facts, and you are more in control of your emotions than you think. Through practice and repetition, you will start considering the best case and most likely case scenarios instead of the worst. You will start believing the phrase, “but what if everything goes right?”
