Welcome to the Mr. Positivity Podcast with your host, Michael McVicker, where we discuss positive characteristics and help you learn, overcome, and acquire a positive lifestyle. If you're ready to be enriched, then get ready to expect great things in your life. Here's your host, Michael McVicker. Well, thanks for joining me

here today and let you and I, just for a few minutes, kind of think and talk about this. The words you speak today will determine your tomorrow. Your life will move in the direction of your words. So when you speak something out, you're actually giving life to what you're saying. Like if you say things, for an example, I'll never get any breaks in life, or business is so slow, I'll probably get laid off, or well, it's flu season, so I guess I'm going to get the flu again, or man, I'm never going to get into shape. If you continue to say things like that, eventually it will become reality. Do you realize your words are like seeds? Where you are today is because of what you've been saying about yourself in the past. Now, I believe this is going to be a very powerful, eye-opening podcast designed to help you take a closer look at the words you're saying. And there is an old saying, That says the tongue can either bring life or death. So today I want you to learn how to reprogram your words with a positive impact to change your situation. And I really do believe ultimately change your life. I want you to let go of the words of negativity and defeat and pick up the powerful words of positivity. You see, you can't expect to speak negative and live a positive life. You can't speak defeat and expect victory. If you have a poor mouth, you're going to have a poor life. The words you speak today is determining your tomorrow. Someone said our tongue can bless our life or can curse our life. So anytime you say things like, I don't get any good breaks, you just cursed your life. I'll never be able to afford that nice house, or I'll never be able to afford that nice car, or I'll never meet the right person. I believe sometimes our worst enemy can be ourselves. So pay close attention to what you're saying. Don't go around speaking negative words of your future. Instead, speak confident, bold, optimistic words. positive, encouraging words. Stop criticizing yourself of the things you don't like about yourself. Oh, I'm getting too old. I'm getting too wrinkled. I walk so slow. Stop speaking negative about your life and start being positive about your life. Use words like healthy, strong, talented, beautiful, young. You know, my grandmother, when she passed away, was 96 and a half years young. And the nurses there asked her, how do you have such clear and clean skin? You look like you're only in your 70s. You know what her response was? She said this, I spoke words of life. I spoke words of health. I spoke words of encouragement. She had five children. Five children. And her husband, which is my mom's dad, passed away when my mom was 12 years old. She raised those five children by herself. So what's the secret, they ask her? Be strong, be bold, watch your words. 96 and a half years young. It's my honor to learn from her. So the words you speak today, yep, will determine your tomorrow. Hey, that's all the time I have here for today. We'll pick it up next time. But I want you to always remember, stay positive.
