Inner Critic - Coach analogy
the way you talk to yourself and think and feel about yourself is kindo like the your coach if you were an athlete
| inner voice | coach |
| you, feeling | the coached person |
| how your inner voice feels when you succeed | how your coach treats you when you succeed |
| is it encouraging, uplifting, motivating you | is he taking your stress, motivating you, forgiving |
| can be unrealistic in its expectations | can be unrealistic in its expectations |
i think you want a inner voice that is realistic so acknowledges challenges and forgiving, flexible and most importantly, supporting
A good coach:
is on your side, supporting and you and your coach ar fighting against reality instead of you fighting partially against your coach and partially against reality or your coach taking the side of reality
