Something that KILLS ME is when clients try to find that motivation through harsh self-criticism.
We all have that voice in our head that tells us we should do EVERYTHING better than we do.
It says that if you weren’t so lazy, thick, stubborn, [insert insult] you could act, think, look and feel SO much better.
We BELIEVE the voice of our inner critic.
We think it speaks the truth and has the recipe for killing it at work, looking like a goddess, being the greatest friend/partner/mother/community member/customer….
Why is it there?
Believe it or not, it’s evolved for the best of intentions. It wants to protect us and keep us safe in the world but it does so by shaming and picking at us.
You can get pretty far beating yourself up into taking action but you can’t get where you want to go in life feeling how you want to feel.
Whenever you reach your goal you will get there exhausted, stressed and hanging on for dear life because your inner critic will just keep raising the bar.
You will only feel the way you want to feel AND achieve what you want in your work-life when you can manage your thoughts and act on what your body tells you about what you really want.
Try celebrating every small win.
Start training your brain to look for what you are doing right!!
Big love,
