The Inner Critic is a major opponent to our writing and creative pursuits.

What follows is from The Inner Journey Newsletter. Highly recommended: http://www.higherawareness.com


Love Yourself

"If you had a friend who talked to you like you sometimes talk to yourself, would you continue to hang around with that person?"
-- Rob Bremer


Thanks to the power of our inner critics, most of us have a very poor opinion of ourselves. Yet self-contempt merely keeps us miserable and stuck in our mediocrity. If we were to make only one change to transform the quality of our lives, we might try sending a little love our own way.


"A critic is a legless man who teaches running."
-- Channing Pollock


"Unkind criticism is never part of a meaningful critique of you. Its purpose is not to teach or to help, its purpose is to punish."
-- Barbara Sher


"You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection."
-- Buddha
