A Week of Mantras

I have been reading about positive affirmations and mantras.  I have thought for sometime that this idea was.... well hokey.  One article Use Your Words really got me thinking about how mentally we challenge and encourage ourselves.

"So what makes a good mantra? One that's short, positive, instructive, and full of action words. An effective mantra addresses what you want to feel, not the adversity you're trying to overcome."  After reading this definition in the Runners World article I realized that I already have some Mantras.

In celebration of my epiphany with Mantras I am planning on posting a Mantra a day this week.
It could be interesting....right?  I would love to know some of yours too.  So think about it and comment!

Chris Young has a song about listening to the voices in your head. I really like the song.  Click on the link below to hear it.
