Maintenance Check
Negative self talk is one of the meanest things I've seen and have heard people do to themselves...
For if you are not positively cheering yourself on, then who is...?
I used to be in the habit of saying negative things to myself under the disguise of "pushing myself" out of complacency. But the truth is... I was nothing but complacent whenever I was negative so I stopped... After doing the work, I noticed how the excessive pushing came from me over identifying with things outside of myself for an identity that just wasn't me... because who I am and what I'm worth could never be determined by something outside - but always by what is inside...
So why all the pushing to begin with?

Thank God for the maintenance check.
