You don’t always notice the damage self criticism is doing while you’re in it.
It sounds like discipline.
Like pushing yourself to be better.
Like holding yourself accountable.
But sometimes it’s just you being harder on yourself than anyone else ever was.
And it doesn’t make you stronger.
It just makes everything heavier.
Being gentle with yourself doesn’t mean you stop growing.
It means you stop fighting yourself while you do.
And that changes everything.
