What was said

"Studies tell us that 80%, upwards of 90% of most people's thoughts are negative about themselves in a given day. Isn't that an incredible number? 80 to 90% of our thoughts about ourself are negative."

Mylett cites research showing the overwhelming majority of people's daily thoughts about themselves are negative, arguing this reveals a widespread self-love deficit. He suggests people need to audit their internal dialogue and actively speak truth and power to themselves rather than simply accepting every thought.
