The practice can teach you important lessons on many things from independence, resilience, and competition to forgiveness and kindness.

We usually focus on the results rather than the processes. Benefits of goal setting include; helps trigger new behaviours, improved focus and helps you sustain that momentum in life. With improved motivation it can lead to greater success and performance. Goal setting can also improve our mental health and our level of personal and professional success.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Positive Self Talk Self-talk is your internal voice. It is influenced by your subconscious mind and thinking. Our internal voice can be both negative and positive. It can be encouraging, and it can be distressing. Positive self-talk can enhance your performance and general wellbeing. The words we use can define our personality and mindset.

Benefits of positive self-talk include; greater life satisfaction, increased vitality, improved immune function, reduced pain, better cardiovascular health, better physical well-being, reduced risk for death, less stress and distress, reduced anxiety and depression.

This can reduce the harmful effects of stress and anxiety.</image:caption>
