Self-critical statements, over time and with enough repetition, shape perceptions about oneself. These limited perceptions usually become beliefs about self-worth and influence how we behave. When we act out these beliefs that we are not smart or that we aren’t capable, we frequently act in a way that brings our worst fears into reality. If you are aware of your self-critic but you are not sure how to navigate the self-critical beliefs, finding a trained therapist can help you calm the voice of your self-critic so that it does not become a self-fulfilling prophecy. #critic #selfcritic #selfcriticism #criticism #selfawareness #shame #stress #anxiety #mentalhealth #emotionalhealth #atlantacounseling #selffulfillment GROWCOUNSELING.COM The Self-Critic And The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy - GROW Counseling
