Episode 78: Self Discovery - Negative Self Talk is a Bummer

Do you have a tendency of beating yourself up? I have had this tendency my whole life. I've become more aware of this in the last two years. Last week, I went to target practice with the two guns I've owned for a few years. I could not cock back the gun! You know many bullets I shot?? Zero! I came down on myself pretty hard for two hours. How can I suddenly have a problem doing something I've been really successful doing before?

After two hours of berating myself, I was able to change my perspective. Find a rainbow in a shit storm Donna. If you can't shoot those guns, find a different one you can shoot. And that's what I did.

Beating yourself up has no value. Try changing your perspective to find a solution to a problem. That will be more beneficial in the long run.
