You Are What You Think: Replacing Negative Self-Talk With ActionIn this Growth Notes episode, Frazier reminds listeners that “you are what you think,” arguing that self-talk shapes attitude and outward actions. He cites research suggesting about 80% of daily thoughts are negative and about 95% are repetitive, often driven by self-criticism, anxiety, worry, and black-and-white or catastrophic thinking, with some people experiencing a constant running verbal dialogue. Drawing on coaching, psychology, and behavioral economics, he says in today’s shifting economy negative thinking is a costly luxury and tends to manifest as ongoing drama and poor outcomes, while expecting to win increases the chances of success. He challenges listeners to notice their internal dialogue, interrupt negative turns, speak positive intentions and actions out loud, and then follow through with those actions.Build Your Growth Engine Today!
