Do you have that nagging voice that gets louder sometimes? That one that tells you all the reasons you can't do something?
Yup, that's the one: I call it (among other things) the inner critic.
The inner critic inside us joins us at birth. Yup, we're born with that bs tucked away inside :-(
But here’s where the joy comes from - we CAN rewire and make changes. We can “school” our inner critic.
Here’s a process you can try:
Give a name to the dumpster fire that derails you.
Give him (or her) a name.
When you feel it rearing its ugly head…start the conversation. “Ok, thanks for trying to protect me, his/her name here, but we’re not going that way anymore… Here’s what we’re doing instead!”
The one caveat I’d point out, however, is that if you find yourself talking to him (or her) time after time…then there’s another step you can add - education!
Time to start learning about yourself, and identify the roots of that dumpster fire. But even if you can’t identify the roots, however, realize that you CAN change what happens moving forward.**
Then wash, rinse, and repeat!
Remember, tho, that this IS a process, and that inner critic will come back from time to time, so don’t despair - but DO ask for help.
And **if you’ve been struggling with this, go ahead and book a call with me today! Let’s kick that inner critic to the curb together…
