Hi, Performers and Achievers. Welcome to Performers and Achievers Daily with me, Raj Cabrulla. In today's episode, talking about the differences between motivational self-talk and instructional self-talk. And we'll do it in three areas since every day there are three goals that I accomplish. One is for in my family, one is in my work, my job, my business, the other one is in my exercise or sports. Now you may have some different three categories that are relevant or most important to you, and you're welcome to use those. However, those are my three: my family, work, job, business, and then exercise or sports, or sports or exercise, actually. So in each one of these, what I want you to do is get out of the piece of paper and jot down five motivational phrases as far as self-talk. This is what your motivational self-talk is to you inside your mind. So you're talking to yourself in your mind. And then on the other side, right five of your instructional self-talks. For your family, for example. Then go to the next goal and write your five motivational self-talk for your business, your work, your job. And then also write your five instructional self-talk. And then the next one, the third goal to be accomplished today. Most of my customers play sports, some of them don't. Right, your five motivational self-talk phrases, and your five instructional self-talk phrases. From me just because they're my examples, means that they work for me, they support me, they help me, they keep me confident, skilled, etc. Experiencing good those kind of things. So the first one in my family for my motivational self-talk is I talk to myself and I say to wake up my dad. And I love to wake up my dad in the morning. He's retired, so I love to wake him up. And he likes getting up in the morning anyway. So that's one of my motivational self-talk to me, wake up dad, or wake up my dad. The next is an instructional self-talk for my family is say good morning to my dad. So I say good morning to my dad every morning. So that's what it I do as far as in my family. Or for my family. Sometimes it doesn't occur because I'm working on a project or I'm traveling somewhere, could be a lot of other reasons, it could be family matters, something else. And it is complete your podcast episode. So that's the instructional self-talk. Gives me a direction, a goal, something intentional, something meaningful, important to me. That's beneficial, that helps, supports whomever it is they're listening to. And so that's the motivational phrase. Complete my podcast. Now my instructional self-talk phase is actually a question. Ask myself a question. What is something that would be beneficial, helpful, supportive to my listeners? People out there who listen to my podcast, whomever they are. And from that question, then I use my thoughts and I gather my thoughts and my thinking and create and structure my episode. I organize it, I structure it, I prepare it, I'm ready to succeed. And then I actually shoot the podcast, record it, upload it, and distribute it. So there's quite a bit that goes into it. Then for sports, I'll pick a sport. Actually, let me pick. Uh okay, I'll I'll pick a sport. And then it would be something like for motivational self-talk. And again, this is a question. What's my strategy to win the match? So that's more like a motivational self-talk. Then my instructional self-talk is something to defect in. I'm not gonna pick a specific sport. However, it is to use my routines and habits of excellence. And another one would be play good and whatever the sport may be. Play good soccer, play good tennis, play good basketball, play good baseball, play good football, play good volleyball, play good golf, play good. There's a reason for that in all of these. Sure, we love to watch the sports center highlights, and you also love it when you're in your business, and for some reason, whatever happens, something occurs at a speed that you just genuinely didn't think it'd occur, and sometimes that happens, and you have a mutually sustainable agreement. Then in family, you know, you always remember the highlights, celebrating somebody's birthday in your family, their anniversary, whatever it may be, or them just visiting, they you know they live hundreds of miles away, thousands of miles away. So you always remember those. Those are like the highlights. However, and this goes back to good or do good in your family, do good for your family, work good, do good business, do a good job, or do my job good, play pick a sport good. And the reason is not that we don't like the highlights, it's just that a lot of times is that consistency of good gets you to in a position right of being beneficial, helpful, supportive. And then it also puts you in the position of actually experiencing or making a highlight. Right? Sometimes there are highlight shots hit. There are highlight highlights at work, there are highlights in your family. There are those. And then while you're playing a sport. So obviously no one can make these amazing highlight type contributions consistently. It's just not possible, it's not sustainable. However, what is sustainable, what is possible, is consistently good, consistently good in your family for your family, consistently good at your work, at your job, at your business, consistently good playing a specific sport. So you have your assignment today. If you don't remember what it is, just go back to the beginning of the podcast and listen to it again. Most importantly, you can be all glad, joyful, excited, happy, thrilled after listening to this. However, by you implementing and applying the breakthrough in learning you're receiving this from this podcast, and putting it to practical use in real time, and then benefiting from that. That helps you, it supports you, makes you a little better, it improves you, you progress, you improve your successes, you improve your contentment, and you just actually are just more enjoyable without really trying to be enjoyable. So that's what I have for you today. If you like my podcast, like it.
