What is Mind Mutter? Part 2 – The Force Within
What is Mind Mutter? Part 2 – The Force Within
Condescending, encouraging, rebuking and challenging! The
relentless muttering of our internal voice is ceaseless and extremely
effective! You cannot out shout Mind Mutter! You cannot kill it with
affirmations. It won’t reduce because you ignore it. Mind Mutter is the driver
of the force that is within you, and is unwilling to let go of that steering
wheel. It is time to stop ignoring it or running from it. It is time to embrace
your only true motivator. It is a fact that mind mutter matters most in
effective and efficient self-development.
In Part 1 of “What is Mind Mutter – Average Enforcer”, we
discovered that each person has various roles that we play each day. Each role
has varying degrees of success and reward. Mind Mutter is the collective voice
of these various roles, which becomes a super-voice in our heads that guides us
and governs all our decisions and goal making processes. It is time to
discover the capabilities of this super charged internal motivating force and
harness it to reach the goals and success you have always planned for.
Recently I have been exposed to some teachings, talks and
books, which give some instruction on dealing with the potential and greatly
misunderstood force of Mind Mutter. Some have said the strategy is to shout
positive affirmations louder than the voice criticizes you in your head. You
will fail. Mind Mutter is not easily bullied. Some have alluded to the fact that
you must ignore the persistent condescending voice and plan for greatness. Mind
Mutter will trip you up. Some insist that reminding your internal bully about
all your successes will changes its tone. Nope. Mind Mutter will just riddle
you with guilt for the areas which you neglect to improve.
Mind Mutter will prevail and you will return to your life
average. Please! This is not a negative thing. Oh no! The success and
relentless drive of Mind Mutter holds powerful keys to accessing your internal
motivator and unleashing its power. You ignore Mind Mutter at your own peril. I
listen to Average Joe type people struggling to energize their goals with
enthusiasm and I think to myself – Pal, you have not engaged your Mind Mutter.
I hear how the Business Mogul hits her head on the glass ceiling, and put it
down to how they have reached the full capacity of their potential. No. That
glass ceiling will be shattered once you engage Mind Mutter.
Am I saying that all the previous teachers on
self-development and personal improvement are wrong? No, not at all. Positive
affirmations and repetition thereof play an important role in upgrading your
personal life average. Changing and amending beliefs and values also has a
powerful effect on improving your personal worth score. But, like our
athletes in Part 1 of this article, you cannot just focus on one specific area
of your life and expect sustainable results. One role focus will give you
tunnel vision and you won’t see Mind Mutter reading itself to trip you up.
Mind Mutter is most effective when all the roles are
developed. Positive Mind Mutter is at its most powerful when goals are
correctly set. Mind Mutter is at its most influential when you negotiate a
personal global view of your identity and self-worth. It’s necessary to engage
with your personal Mind Mutter voice, to clearly define goals, ambitions,
expectations and desired outcomes. You must deal with concerns and objections
raised by the Mind Mutter during these conversations. Does that mean goofy
self-talk when no one is looking? Yup. Does that mean renegotiating with Mind
Mutter after failure to achieve goals? Yup, again. Is this one of those tedious
tasks of trial and error to get it right? Three out of three – yup!
There is no doubt that negotiating with you own Mind Mutter
is a laborious task that will be racked with confusion, mistakes and retakes.
But, if you are serious about improving your worth, if you mean business when
it comes to goal setting, then, embracing Mind Mutter is the only path to take.
