I can relate with what you said so much! I wrote this article because it's been a long journey for me as well. I'm my harshest critic by far.
Documenting your journey is gold. Having real data and precedents to refer back to also really helps me reframe negative self-talk. Thank you for sharing!
I give my inner critic a name. A name that doesn't sound particularly pleasant when I pronounce it. "Dilic" (sorry if that's anyone's name! 😳). Then whenever I catch my inner critic going crazy, I say to myself "there's Dilic again!" and it reminds me that I should silence Dilic and keep persevering with more compassionate self talk.
Honestly, that touched a nerve haha 🥲
I think there’s no harsher critic than myself and I am striven by the “do more, better, faster”. But yes, it’s an overall negative mindset.
One thing that helps here is documenting my journey; failures and successes alike.
Reflecting on the past allows to have a better framing of my current and potential future performance. That’s a way I try to keep things at bay
