Why Don't We Reach Out
#3 Our own critical voice.
We are often our own worst critic. When something doesn't go well or when we mess up somehow, we beat ourselves up about it. That voice is the loudest when we are most vulnerable.
Instead of allowing your inner critic to rule, change the voice to one that is kind and caring. Imagine what you would say to a friend who was in your situation. Then say that to yourself.
