Importance of the Internal Voice

The internal voice, shaped by authority figures like parents from early childhood, plays a crucial role in our success, as highlighted by performance psychologist Dr. Jim Lohr. This voice influences our actions, beliefs, and self-perception profoundly, impacting our future conversations with ourselves. Parents are urged to reflect on the significance of the voice they instill in their children, emphasizing the responsibility to cultivate a positive, empowering, and supportive internal dialogue.

“You hear it all the time. The voice in your head. You’ve heard it all your life. The one that tells you what’s right. The one that tells you what it thinks you ought to do. It can also turn nasty, whispering that you’re not good enough, that everyone sees through you, that you’ll never measure up.”

Ryan explains how our internal narrative is largely developed during childhood, and why you should take the responsibility of molding your child’s inner voice very seriously, on today’s Daily Dad Podcast.
