Creative Mindset

Everyone’s opinion is subjective, even if it’s someone that you really admire. One person, one opinion amongst many.

And yet, criticism and rejection can have a huge impact!

Today’s prompt is a bit trickier. That’s why I waited a few days before asking you that question, but it’s so important.

We’re going to think about your childhood because most of our limiting beliefs and most of that inner critic comes from your childhood.

It’s normal if you feel emotional today, so be kind to yourself. And remember that clarifying and understanding what you heard while growing up will help you grasp that inner critic and reframe it.

Week 2! It’s not too late to start! 

I believe our inner critic is a projection of our definition of success. 

The guilt that you are not there yet triggers that little voice in your head.

But are YOU happy with that definition of success?

What are you scared of? 

I think our inner critic is scared. It wants to prevent us from being in the unknown, as you will be out of control, and you could get hurt. 

By understanding what scares you, you will be able to reassure your inner critic and reframe it. Join the challenge for extra support.

Let's explore our fears together!
