In this video, I discuss the unique role my self-criticism has played in my life. I not only have a life history of being my worst critique in “normal” areas – work, athletics, appearance – but also in the area of my beliefs. I was trained to look at everything that I was doing and saying in my life and to criticize it before anyone else could. I am choosing to see it now as positive in the sense of how that sets a tone of respect for the conversation. However, as I listen to this present day, post-Healing, it is obvious to me I spent 25 years engaging in this manner to head off what I believed deep down would be inevitable criticism. This was largely all I knew for the majority of my life…that I was never, ever good enough.
