Self-criticism is how we evaluate ourselves and our actions. We believe it’s our way of setting ourselves right before others do; correcting wrongs, fixing mistakes. It’s natural, even healthy if done in a positive light. The problem begins when we turn into our own worst critic. We condemn and judge ourselves far too grimly than we do complete strangers. And we rarely do it with any warmth or compassion. In reality, criticizing ourselves rarely results in any positive results, but only makes matters worse as we make our own selves feel bad about ourselves. Journaling can help cope with this.

Everyone one has a past… literally. If you have been on this earth for any length of time, you will have a past. We live in a linear way so that as time progresses, it leaves a trail that we call the past. When we typically speak about someone having a “past,” however, we are speaking about key life events that have occurred. We’re referring to personal relationships they had, occupations they engaged in, or traumatic events they experienced. Of course, sometimes we also use the term to refer to life’s successes and accomplishments. The importance of the past is that the events of our past shape us. They influence who we are today. This process of shaping is meant to be dynamic, continuous, and always evolving. Journaling can reflect this.
