To really rise above your inner critic in a long-term way, I've found it helps to take a more… rebellious approach.

The natural route is to start panicking when it pops off, wish it away, and feel bad because you assume it's telling the truth about you. But there's a less-traveled road nearby, and when you take that one instead, your inner critic loses its status as your meanest schoolyard bully… and becomes something harmless that you can stand up to with cool and confidence—maybe even a smile.
