Our Inner critic is like what kryptonite is to superman.
It can destroy us and make us weak and vulnerable to where we are helpless, feel hopeless and lost.
Our inner-critic is one of the greatest deterrent to having semi-decent self-confidence, or the enthusiasm to choose action over inaction. Or We spend uncountable hours challenging our decisions and indecision; the choice we make and the ones we don’t. We go through a vicious cycle of so much self-doubt, we eventually just give in.
Some say our inner-critic is a survival mechanism. Perhaps that’s true, but I have another perspective. It’s that our inner-critic is about the confidence we don’t have. Consider this question:
Would our Inner-critic be as prevalent in our lives, if we had greater self-confidence?
