What's Next?

Hello everyone I was thinking to myself what I need to do to change my attitude towards kung fu and my life. I figure I should start with the words I say. I would say even this week I ended up saying negative stuff about myself in life and my kung fu. I seem to not accept anything good about myself, and when practicing to become better I tell myself how horrible I am, and I will never get better no matter how long, or hard I try.
   I need to try and catch myself when I do this and start to re-phrase what I say. For example I said "apparently my drumming is really bad and not up to snuff." Now no one told me this, but this is what I had thought. What I should of said is "I feel like I still have a lot to learn and can't wait to learn more." Just by changing the way I said "I still need a lot of practice" brought into the equation two completely trains of thought. I changed it from not feeling of any improvement has been made and I will never make it; to a student who realizing they learned a lot and is looking forward to what they can accomplish if they keep going.
The Power of words have a power of putting you in the improper mind set of a challenge all because the speaker chose some bad words to say over a more optimistic way of looking at things.
What this new ,I guess sorta game, I do is whenever things are going bad for me or others around me. I start telling a story on how well can I turn what is going on to them seem better. Basically  create the silver lining; then focus on that.
   Words are not just words . They can become your worst nightmare or be your best friend.I am current trying to become more involved in my life, by listen to the negative words I say to myself and try to rephrase what I say to become more positive look on my out life and kung fu. 

Well I would like to start leaving my little quote's on here again so I'm gonna.
we are all ordinary people, but we all have the possibly of doing extraordinary action.
