EP 6 — Negative Self-Talk. You'd never talk to a friend the way you talk to yourself after a mistake. That gap is worth paying attention to. Harsh self-talk feels like accountability, but it rarely changes behavior. It just adds shame on top of the mistake, which makes you more likely to avoid the problem instead of fixing it. After your next mistake, ask what you'd say to someone you actually respect if they did the same thing. Then say that to yourself. Out loud if you have to. That's not softness. That's accuracy. #negativeselftalk #selftalk #mindset #selfimprovement #chapo
