This past Friday I had the pleasure of sharing lunch with 15 women from the Women's Network as we gathered to hear Dr. Angela Neal-Barnett. Dr. Barnett is the founder of Rise Sally Rise an organization dedicated to helping women of color overcome feelings of anxiety and believe their own personal value and ability to rise to success.
She demonstated a powerful exercise that involves having your own personal theme song.
We all have an internal tape that plays in our head; sometimes encouraging, but oft times reminding us of when we've failed keeping us from feeling successful.
She showed us that by singing the words to your theme song you can successfully squash the negatives voices in your head keeping you from striving for the goals you desire.
So I set about finding a theme song.
The first one I came up with is "Jesus Loves Me" because afterall, God don't make junk and besides I knew all the words.
But as I continued to search over the weekend, I found the perfect song just for me. Natasha Bedingfields song "Unwritten." Scroll all the way down the link at Amazon and you'll find the words to this insightful song.
So what's your theme song?
