I wholeheartedly agree. The language we use affects us much more than most people know or understand. To constantly use the negatives programs our brains in that way and instead of actually avoiding that which we hope to avoid, we tend to attract even more of it. It does take a lot of work but if you practice enough focusing on the positive aspect of motivation over the negative aspect, things will fall into place eventually because you are reprogramming your brain towards a more positive goal-oriented mindset that instead of focusing on fear of failure, focuses on hope for success.

Great post, as usual, @paps! Thank you for sharing it with us all.
