Negative self talk can not only sabotage your self worth, it can damage your relationships. Whatever internal dialogue you have active can easily seep out as you view and relate to others.

When you hear critical comments arise, ask yourself, was that a thought I generated, or was that my brain creating a thought. One easy way to discern is to notice if the beginning of that sentence started with "You..." or "I".

If you were sitting on the couch and started to feel hungry, would you say to yourself "You should go get a snack"? Of course not, you'd say "I'm hungry. I'm going to get a snack".

When the mind produces critical thoughts, it usually speaks to you in second person. (you are, you should) This ISN'T you, this is your brain doing it's job and thinking thoughts.

These thoughts do not deserve your energy.

You can let them float away as you refocus on the issue at hand. Then redirect your brain onto feelings of gratitude or appreciation. Even if you've made a mistake in the moment, that's only ONE part of the story. Notice all the other things you did well. Notice what IS working.
