Hey everyone, welcome to Mouthed Therapy and today I want to talk about developing the skill to be able to talk to yourself. It's been about 6 months since I started doing this thing where if I think I'm procrastinating I would ask myself that question, is I might bring this video game to procrastinate and really concentrate on what might and so it would be and the answer can manifest itself into maybe an emotion produced by your body, literally your mind telling you yes or no, it can present itself in different ways. But I've noticed that as I keep doing it and as my mind kind of has had enough if I keep procrastinating and playing video games, if I truly just ask myself a question and I'm attentive as to what the answer is, oftentimes I will get an answer and following it feels extremely good for example I was playing video games and I was in this silly procrastinating because I don't necessarily have work but I ask myself, I was playing and I ask myself, should I keep playing? And the answer was very very clearly no, I just felt it and I stopped and I felt better and I can't really, there's not much to say about it, there's not much more but I'd say if you feel shitty because you haven't been doing whatever the school work or you haven't been doing a hobby that you really like to do that's maybe a little hard I've been playing an instrument, ask yourself should I play the guitar if you play the guitar and really want just really desire to know what the answer is, the key is to desire to know what the answer is and it might not work the first time but if you really really ask yourself again and again over the course of some weeks you may develop the ability to really be able to get an answer whether it's an emotion or just a word that pops up in your mind so yes thank you for listening have a great day.
