Listen "How to Reframe Self Critical Thoughts and Boost Self-Esteem : (Fire your Inner Critic)"
Episode Synopsis
Self-critical thoughts can be overwhelming. They can consume your day and make it difficult to focus on anything else. These types of negative thoughts can harm you in multiple ways. Self-criticism can be an ongoing dialogue inside your head. Most of the thoughts focus on flaws, whether actual or perceived. Sometimes the thoughts start after a critical comment from another person. In rare cases, self-criticism can be useful. It may increase humbleness and provide a way to evaluate mistakes. However, most of the time, self-criticism creates unnecessary pain and suffering. Self-critical thoughts can increase the risk of depression, anxiety, stress, and other mental health issues. They also weaken your self-esteem and confidence. Luckily, you can learn to reframe these negative thoughts in your head and overcome them. “It's easy to become very self-critical when you're an actor. Then you get critiqued by the critics. Whether you agree with them or not, people are passing judgment on you.” - Keanu Reeves Most self-criticism can be separated into two categories: comparative and internalized criticism. Comparative criticism is when you compare yourself to others. On the other hand, internalized criticism is when you feel like you can’t live up to your own standards. Both comparative and internalized self-criticism can be dangerous. #innercritic #selfesteem #mindset #howto #depression #businesstips #howtogetrich #productiveNotbusy #podcast #spotify #iheartradio #applepodcast #wayneweathersby #nfl #nba #mlb # --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wayne-weathersby/support Subscribe today and join a community that’s growing stronger every week.
