Self-Talk Reframing Worksheet
Transform negative self-talk into positive, performance-enhancing thoughts
💡 Examples of Effective Reframing:
❌ Negative:
"I'm going to mess this up"
✅ Reframed:
"I've prepared for this and I'm ready to do my best"
❌ Negative:
"Everyone will think I'm terrible"
✅ Reframed:
"I'm focused on my performance, not others' opinions"
❌ Negative:
"I can't handle the pressure"
✅ Reframed:
"Pressure means this matters to me - I can use that energy"
How to Reframe Effectively:
- Acknowledge the concern but shift the perspective
- Focus on what you CAN control
- Use present tense, positive language
- Make it believable - don't just say "I'm perfect"
- Connect to your values and preparation
