Reacting To Your Inner Critic Costs You/Part 18

Listen Later

If you BELIEVE or REACT to everything your INNER CRITIC says, here is what it may be costing you:

PERFECTIONIST:

  • Not getting to do hard things, because you may tend to avoid "uncertain" outcomes or seemingly "impossible" goals.
  • Never feeling satisfied with "what is".
  • Not being able to identify and aim for what is "good enough" given the current circumstances.
  • Never getting to feel truly worthy in spite of your imperfections.
  • Feeling inferior to others who are seemingly more "perfect".

    • SABOTEUR:

    • Not making continuous progress toward a goal.
  • Losing the ability to trust ourselves to do what we say we'll do,
  • Feeling distracted and unfocused.
  • Missing out on finishing what we start.

    • PESSIMIST:

    • Failing in advance by not even trying.
  • Letting your past determine your future.
  • Denying yourself your hopes and dreams.

    • MARTYR:

    • You steal learning opportunities from others.
  • You seldom reach your own goals or achieve your own dreams.
  • You need approval to thrive.
  • You are always worried about other people’s reactions to what you’re doing.
  • You're perpetually "exhausted' and "obligated".

    Here are my favorite Inner Critic resources:

    “The Courage Habit” podcast.

    “Dethroning Your Inner Critic” podcast. 

    Stay tuned… I’m creating an intoxicating experience and course which will be coming your way later this fall. Prepared to be instigated, disrupted, and intoxicated with purpose, passion, and possibility. 

    My email subscribers will be given first priority when the course opens. I invite you to subscribe here:

    When it comes to podcasting, the best way to “tip the bartender” is by heading over to Apple Podcasts and leaving a 5-star review. This helps me imbibe other listeners with the secret sauce of emotional intelligence. And, make sure to “order another round”  by hitting SUBSCRIBE. 

     

    If you’re thirsty for more than this daily shot and ready to intoxicate the hell out of your personal and professional life, I’d love to invite you to coach one-on-one with me.
