Talk to yourself at least once a day, otherwise you may miss meeting an excellent person in this world.

These profound words are from Swami Vivekananda, a Hindu spiritual leader.

Self-talk is our internal dialogue. It’s influenced by our subconscious mind and speaks volumes about our thoughts, beliefs, questions, and ideas. Therefore, self-talk can be encouraging or distressing, depending on our personality.

Don’t worry if your inner voice is more critical than you’d like it to be. You can change it to be more optimistic with some practice and self-awareness.

Below are some reasons to engage in positive or encouraging self-talk more often.
