Why does criticism hurt so much?
I bet you know situations like these: You’re having dinner with the person you love.
Everything seems great, but then they say: "You didn’t ask me how my day was. It felt like you don’t care."
A solid statement, that kicked you out of you calm mind.
In your ears that sounded like an accusation.
Even worse, like a judgement.
You feel criticized, at the same time hurt and offended.
Your thoughts start spiraling.
Why didn’t you ask, idiot?
Why did you FAIL this one.
You feel ashamed.
Anxiety kicks in. What if they now think I don’t love them, because I forgot to ask?
But then your inner guard raises it’s voice:
You heat up and feel irritated.
Why do they even expect me to ask how their day was? Mine was exhausting and I just forgot to ask.. Why do they always expect things from me? It’s unfair.
When you can identify with this example, first of all, I’m not here to expose you.
If you react like this, it’s totally understandable, because there are good reasons for it.
Therefore today, in this video, I’m going to share 5 surprising reasons, why the smallest comment or criticism completely breaks you.
