Signs you are too Self-Critical
- 5 years ago
"I just feel so embarrassed."
"I feel worthless."
"What a failure!"
While it's always a good idea to push yourself to become the best version of yourself, sometimes we tend to go overboard. Just in case you needed a reality check, here are 5 indicators that you have been too self-critical:
1. Seeking Perfectionism : Nothing is good enough for you. You see the world in black and white!
2. Confirmation bias: When you're focusing on what's wrong, you're bound to find it!
3. Second-guessing: You tend to go beyond self-reflection and it's a tried-and-true way to beat yourself up.
4. You can't take a compliment: You dismiss genuine compliments and don't say "thank you!". This fuels a negative mindset!
5. You feel constantly irritated: If you are easily angered it is most likely because you are too critical on others and even yourself.
