Mary and Jill own a company called Girls Mentorship. They work with teen and tween girls all around, developing their life and personal development skills. They want to do a series all around those empowering sayings versus those disempowering things.
We want to talk about you can do hard things. After you complete a task, it really, really energizes you to complete the next task. Sometimes it doesn't always have to come from internal motivation. Sometimes we need to look at who we can lean on externally as well.
What's going on, Cadre fam? My name is Mary. This is my best friend and business partner, Jill, and we own a company called Girls Mentorship, where we get to work with teen and tween girls all around, developing their life and personal development skills. And a conversation that comes up a lot, not just for them, but for us as well, is the power of the tongue. And we want to do a series all around those empowering sayings that we say to ourselves versus those disempowering things. Because show of hands, how many people self sabotage?
How many people tear themselves down versus build themselves up? I know I do, and I've worked on it for a very long time. So I guarantee you on the other end of the screen probably have a tendency to go negative before you go positive as well. So what's the first thing that we want to bring to you today? We want to talk about you can do hard things. Ah, that's it. The fact that we can do hard things. We are constantly challenged by our surroundings and relationships and deadlines at work that sometimes we just give up or we stop or we sit down on ourselves or we have excuses.
Oh, a hundred thousand percent. And we convince ourselves that we can do it. But realistically, realistically, if you can repeat this mantra to yourself, especially after you complete a task, I can do hard things. Period. I can do hard things. Do you know how empowering that is? To say that after you complete a task, it really, really energizes you to complete the next task? And movement creates motivation to do the next thing on the to do list. And I'm sure all of you are wearing multiple hats.
You are an employee, you are a son or a daughter, a friend, you might be a parent, et cetera, et cetera. And all of those roles, all of those titles come with responsibilities. And when you're trying to juggle and do all the things, it's really easy to get caught up in the, well, I don't have time, or I can't do this, or whatever that may be for you. For me, as a parent, I get stuck like that. Well, I can't do this because I have to do this parent thing right now, or I'm just feeling overwhelmed, so I'm not gonna do anything at all.
And then when I actually hear that inner voice, I pause and I say, I can do hard things. I can do this. It's 1ft in front of the other. And sometimes you need to borrow somebody else's belief. So if you were to take a peek into Jill and I's text thread. The amount of times that we're gassing each other up and saying you can do hard things, girlfriend is abundant. It's all over the place because we know that we need that extra little pat on the b*** to get going. Sometimes it doesn't always have to come from internal motivation.
Sometimes we need to look at who we can lean on externally as well. So for you right now, sit down, take a big, deep breath. Where are you feeling overwhelmed? Where are you feeling like you can't possibly accomplish the task set in front of you? Where can you say 100% I can do hard things? Because you can, and we believe in you. So please borrow our belief and go on and conquer the rest of your to do list. Until next time, you guys. We'll see you on the next video.
