Does your inner voice sometimes turn against you? Maybe you are feeling anxious or nervous, and that little voice inside tells you to stop, you are too far out of your depth, and you can’t do this.
Negative self-talk can be crippling and make us feel terrible. It's something that many people deal with on a daily basis, to some extent or another. So what do you do when you start to feel the negativity creeping in, and the self-doubt takes over? We have some coping strategies here to help you beat your own negative self-talk: We all like to think of ourselves as inherently good. Sometimes we do things that don’t quite achieve that, but we use qualifiers such as 'I'm having a bad day' or 'He/she deserved it’ etc. That way our ego isn’t damaged and we can carry on in the safe knowledge that we’ll act like a good person next time.
