You know your inner negative critic well. It is the voice inside you that constantly criticizes and belittles you. He is the person who sits next to you in the cinema and tells you what will happen while you are watching the movie you are eagerly waiting for and ruins the movie. Or you might be asked after an important conversation, “Why would you say that now?” It is the voice that asks: and points your mistakes in your face over and over again. It is the voice that constantly compares you with others, hurts your pride, and tells you that it is impossible to achieve your goals. This inner voice is created over time by people who criticize us. These people are usually people who are with us at every stage of our lives, such as our parents, teachers, siblings, colleagues or bosses. Over time, their voices and criticisms become our inner voice. But this inner voice is far from constructive; It instills feelings of fear, anxiety and failure in the person.
He is a Bad Friend
Let's think about it this way: Let's imagine that your negative inner voice is a very close friend of yours. Let's say you invite him/her to an activity where you will have fun with your other friends. Imagine that he constantly judges and criticizes you during the event. Imagine him humiliating you by making fun of everything, from your clothes to the food you ordered from the menu. When you break up with him at the end of the day, you probably feel humiliated, humiliated, disappointed, and worthless. So, after such an event, would you invite that friend to come to another event again? Would you continue your friendship with that person? Your answer is most likely: no! But then why do we always allow our negative inner voice to stay in our lives, no matter how much it harms us, no matter how much it humiliates us? We say things to ourselves that we would never say to anyone else. The saddest part is that we often don't even realize how cruelly we treat ourselves, or worse, we think we deserve these words. Some of us think that our inner voice that judges us motivates us and gives us gas to be better. This is a mistaken idea. Our negative inner voice becomes a perfectionist over time. r causes us to develop personality, and perfectionism is one of the biggest obstacles to success. Most of the time we are not even aware of our own value. Sometimes we focus on a microscopic mistake and ignore the beauty of the big picture. Negative inner voice does not improve us or make us better, on the contrary, it is the shortest way that leads us astray from the path to our goals.
Silencing Our Negative Inner Voice
Our negative inner voice. The most effective method to silence it is to notice it. The moment he starts talking, change it, just like when a song you don't like starts playing, move on to the next song on your playlist. Remind yourself that you are being cruel and you don't deserve it. Focus on a good thought or a good action you did during the day. Another method is to transform our negative inner voice into a positive inner voice. Think of nice comments you can say to both yourself and your loved ones every day and actively express them. Always wish well for yourself and others. Know that you are valuable and give yourself the value you deserve. Don't let your inner voice destroy your self-confidence, make you doubt yourself, or hold you back from what you can achieve. Your inner voice is like a hand trying to pull you to the bottom, it gets stronger as it pulls you deeper. Tell him to stop and never doubt yourself.
