self-criticism

Working With Your Inner Critic and Moving Towards Self-Compassion

January 21, 2021 by Patrice Flanagan-Morris

We need to learn to move from a place of motivation from criticism to motivation from self-compassion. People use self-criticism as a “motivator.” If we are our own worst critic then we will push ourselves farther. Unfortunately, that’s not the truth and in reality, actually holds us back.
