30 Day Challenge - Day 5

Self-judgement

As I read yesterday’s post, the main things that went through my mind was how I could have written it better.  There was a lot of negative self-judgement / self-talk. It’s interesting that I go straight to what was wrong, rather than what was good and the fact that I actually posted something which is my goal in this challenge - not to be perfect.

What I have realised just now is that I noticed my self-judgement and criticism. Noticing the things that trip us up is the first step to doing them differently or not doing them as often or at all. I know self-judgement and self-criticism are common conversations in my head, although I don’t necessarily notice in the moment how prevalent and habitual these thoughts are.

I feel like at the end of this 30 day challenge I’m going to be creating other 30 day challenges - the next one might have to be to change my thinking habits - practicing reflecting on positive things I’ve done rather than jumping straight to the negative.
