Showing JF doing negative self-talk and positive self-talk

Positive self-talk refers to the practice of making affirming and constructive statements to oneself. It involves using encouraging language to boost one's confidence and mentality. This type of self-talk is crucial because it helps to reduce stress, enhance resilience, and improve overall well-being. By consciously shifting to positive self-talk, individuals can cultivate a more optimistic outlook, which in turn can lead to more effective problem-solving, better decision-making, and increased motivation.

As a result of complications during my birth, I lacked oxygen to my brain, resulting in the neurological condition known as Cerebral Palsy (or "CP" for short). Growing up, many aspects of my life did not resemble those of other children. I learned to walk at the age of five, had a classroom aide for taking notes throughout my education, and, to this day, have difficulty with fine-motor tasks such as tying shoes, attaching buttons, or drinking from a glass – trust me, that can get messy! With the support of my family and many healthcare professionals, I persevered, developing a tenacity (some might call it stubbornness) that has allowed me to complete two university degrees, have a thriving career in technology, and be a committed father to two children. Besides my degrees in Science, I have completed NLP and hypnosis, meditation, and Reiki trainings, allowing me to access deeper parts of my mind to reach my goals, no matter how ambitious they seem.
