Dan Abrahams breaks down something I preach constantly: your self-talk isn't just noise, it's biology.⁣
⁣
The language centers of your brain are in constant communication with your body. Negative self-talk isn't harmless venting, it changes your hormones, fogs your clarity, and saps the motivation you need to actually put in work.⁣
⁣
Flip the script to "I'm good, I'm excited to get better" and you open the door to self-regulated learning, the kind where you're curious, self-reflective, and locked in on getting better every rep.⁣
⁣
Most players think talent separates them. I'd argue their internal dialogue does just as much heavy lifting. #shorts
