How many times have you found yourself criticising yourself for something that you said, for a way in which you acted, for something that you did not do, or maybe even for your appearance? Is your inner critic sometimes pointing out the worse in you?
I am warmly welcoming you to the twelfth episode of the Golden Sphere Coaching Podcast, this is your host Anda and for the next few minutes I would like to offer you three ways in which you could tame your harsh inner critic!
List of socratic questions for being able to assess your life situations more objectively:
What is the evidence for this thought? Against it?
Am I basing this thought on facts, or on feelings?
Is this thought black and white, when reality is more complicated?
Could I be misinterpreting the evidence? Am I making any assumptions?
Might other people have different interpretations of the same situation? What are they?
Am I looking at all the evidence, or just what supports my thought?
Could my thought be an exaggeration of what’s true?
Am I having this thought out of habit, or do the facts support it?
Did someone pass this thought/belief to me? If so, are they a reliable source?
In case you are struggling with some concrete situations and you need a Life Coach to help you with a specific situation, I would be more than happy to do so!
Therefore, I warmly encourage you to drop a line at sayhello@golden-sphere.com, and we can schedule a complimentary session to get us going!
