A friend has Dyspraxia and struggles with balance, co-ordination and spatial awareness. He started driving lessons when he was 17. He struggled straight away and was extremely frustrated. He tried to pass his driving test until he was 23 when he finally succeeded, so this was 6 years in the making.
How did he succeed? He made a list of positive words. Every morning he read them aloud, even if he didn't believe in some of them. It made him feel good and with time he started feeling calm and as if nothing could stop him! He felt powerful and confident. He finally discovered 'The Power Of Encouraging Words'.

Positive language can help to reduce conflict, improve communication, increase optimism in others and can portray the speaker/writer as credible and respectable.
