Here are some keys that will help you make your
mouth your greatest design tool:
Engage in personal pep talks. At some point
in your life, there will not be anyone else to run to
and you will have to encourage yourself. When
everyone else around him was defeated and
discouraged, David had to encourage himself in
order to bring about victory. See 1 Samuel 30:6.
If you ever face a crisis, and you will, don’t let
your self-talk get off course. Square your
shoulders, remember what the Word says about
you and cheerlead yourself to victory.

Trap negative, self-defeating thoughts with your mouth. When you speak a negative
thought out of your mouth, you are taking ownership of that thought. Every thought is not your
own. Many of your thoughts come from Satan, so you must arrest those thoughts by speaking the
Word out loud against it. When a negative thought peeps up its ugly head, use this life design
strategy and say out loud: "That's not my thought. I refuse you." Then speak out loud what the
Word says about you.
Don’t belittle, berate or bash yourself by saying things like this:

Have you ever intentionally listened to what you say about yourself? People often tend to speak
their mind without ever paying attention to what their mind is saying. The danger in that is, the
most convincing words you’ll ever hear are your own! You believe what you hear you say before
you’ll believe what others say. What you say about you, to you, will either be your greatest source
of motivation or your greatest hindrance in life.
I have become dogmatic about my words. I latched on to the revelation that I am a speaking spirit
and can have what I say. Yes, that’s right, and so can you... the good, bad and the ugly. The other
day my husband asked me a question about our daughter. After I responded, I sighed and twisted
some words that belittled me. Later that day I was reminded of what I had said earlier. I thought to
myself, how could I allow that to slip? Immediately I recanted my words and canceled them from
the atmosphere. And yes, you can do that. It’s called repentance.
The reason I was reminded of what I’d said earlier is because of how careful I am to frame my
words on purpose. This habit persuades me to develop a language of success and daily speak it to
myself. Everyday when I wake up I speak positive, faith-filled words to myself about my life and
my future. Talking my way to success means no matter what situation or circumstance comes up, I
speak the Word of God and declare who I am in him and what is promised to me. This principle has
changed my life. This is how I design for success, and you can too.

“I’m so stupid” “I’ll never get through this”
“I never win anything” “I always lose”
“I’m too fat” “I’m not attractive”
“No one ever pays attention to me” “I never get it right”
“I don’t know what I’m going to do” “I’ll never have my own home”
“I never win anything” “I always lose”

See yourself succeeding. How you see yourself will determine what you say about yourself,
self-esteem so you can raise your self-talk. Regardless of what you may be going through, say what
God says about you until it becomes your reality.
Get your success vocabulary on. When I woke up this morning, I said, “This is my receiving
day. I am expecting great things today.” You can create your own success vocabulary. Carry 3 x 5
cards in your purse and read them to yourself while waiting in the grocery line, at the bank or like
places. Design your self-talk vocabulary like this, “I am going to have an over-the-top day today!”
“Favor and over-the-top blessings are going to chase me down today!” Make them your Designing
Express cards and never leave home without them!
Practice success talk in the mirror. A mirror is a great tool for self-talk. This technique is
also useful for visualization before a job interview, tough meeting, public speaking or just starting
your day with a winner’s mentality. As an act of your faith, get in front of your mirror and talk and
visualize your way to success. Look yourself in the eye and speak who you are in God. Speak your
desires. As you do this, you are declaring who you are and simultaneously visualizing it
manifesting in your life. Confidence and peace will come upon you.
Stop saying what you see and speak your way to success. As you talk your way to success by
speaking your victory, opportunities, insights, concepts and divine connections will begin to open
up for you. Keep talking your way to success and expecting your victory.
I enjoy success stories and would love to hear about yours.
