GM
I used to be hypercritical and judgmental of myself.
“That’s just the way I am” I would say.
But then I realized: it wasn’t my voice at all. It was my father’s—echoing through the corridors of my mind, long after he had passed away.
When I realized that I began to reframe the way I would speak to myself.
Now I speak to myself the way I speak to my children. With love and grace and understanding.
And not surprisingly it makes it easier to be non-judgmental towards others.
