To stay positive I listen to the daily coaching morning and evening. I find if I don’t the inner critic can re-appear. When it does reappear I sometimes head out for a short walk to clear my head.
Long paragraph! ✔️ I feel like I am a very disciplined person. ( only when I want to be ) so I just kind of push it aside like “Pfttt watch this” and I prove myself wrong. I know it’s bad to set low expectations but sometimes that’s what I do to silence the criticism a bit. Eventually I’ll raise them when I feel I’m hitting the low expectation(s) 100% of the time. Actually maybe at LEAST 90%. That’s how I know I can re-evaluate the expectations and how I feel about the project.
Staying connected aligned and centered in my truest truths— my souls path- destiny- commitment- contact- word to twin. Coming home to self, inner flower love child- leading me to feel taste love all of life— faithful to my inner guidance- holding on when I wanted to let go— believing in ME- as Source Creator limitless grounded and free life giving love feeling energy♥️♥️
I prefer not to listen to my inner critic cause it will damage everything . I usually talk yo myself in front of the mirror and say: I can and I will , watch me . all you need to do is to motivate yourself and don’t waste your time on waiting people to motivate you
I realise that my inner critic is a part of my mind that l have neglected. This is part of me that l must not ignore and in fact it can become a friend of mine who l can learn from. I don’t know if you have heard of the known and the unknown self? The inner critic comes from the unknown self. Be kind to this part of yourself and don’t be afraid of yourself. Can learn so much about what hasn’t been nurtured in you. Give yourself the gift of self compassion and kindness!
In the past I ised to try to silence it, ignore it but I think that made it worse. Now I’ve learned to look at my inner critic as one of my people at the wooden table inside my garden. I’ve seated another person in there a supportive parent mine is based on my 50 year old kind dad type manager, Robb. I would listen to the critic and respond to them the way Robb would think "well I think you’re amazing and you shouldn’t be hard on yourself, its ok" and point out all the positive side of things that critic doesn’t pay attention to. That has helped the critic become a person at the table and not taking over and giving me guilt or bad feelings
I can’t silence my inner critic. I listen it with care (is a fragile part of me), I reassure it and after, together, me and my inner critic, we go on.
I have read the book of Eric Berne: Games prople play and it helped me a lot understanding myself. I started to focus on loving myself and tried to make something little each day only to 'have fun' (like buying something little, doing some sports, calling my best friend, etc). That was a good start:)
I don’t agree that we should silence our inner critic. It can help you in finding your flaws and work for improvement. Although, we must not let it transform into a fear monger which demotivates you. Having flaws should become an incentive for improvement. Not for giving up.
I remind myself that I’ve been through intense emotional times and that helps me Power through current emotional times by focusing on the outcome of working through my issues by not avoiding them.
