Words matter! What you say to yourself and your kids matter.

Do you focus on the negative?
"Don't do that..."
"Don't forget..."

Your brain (and your tiny humans' brains) can NOT process the negative. All your brain hears is the action.

When you tell your child, "Don't touch the mirror!" All their brain process is, "touch the mirror"

In softball, I used to to up to the plate and say, "Don't miss it!" What my brain heard was "miss it!"

Focus on the positives. Focus on the outcome that you want, because your brain doesn't hear the "don't" and what you focus on is what you will get.
