Criticism

Sometimes we criticize ourselves because we’re not sure how to prioritize and feel so overwhelmed.  Let’s borrow benefits and tap some charge off.

KC: Even though I don’t think I can prioritize all this work I’m open to this
changing
KC: Even though I have so many important things to do and I can’t
figure out what to do first---I acknowledge this and am open to clear
thinking
KC: Even though I was never very good at prioritizing I’m open to
changing this

EB: I don’t know where to start
SE: Everything is important
UE: I can’t decide what is the most important
UN: I’ll disappoint people
CH: I HAVE to do it all
CB: I can’t cut back
UA: I can’t do it all
TH: I have to regain some balance

EB: Something’s I’ll have to let go
SE: What if they don’t understand
UE: They’ll bad-mouth me
UN: I won’t be the hero
CH: They’ll think I can’t focus
CB: They’ll think I’m just afraid
UA: The truth is I’m great at what I do
TH: I just can’t say “NO”

EB: I have to be honest
SE: I have to admit when I’m over extended
UE: I have to be fair to everyone
UN: I have to balance my life and work
CH: I have to focus on what is important
CB: I have to get the help I need
UA: I have to stand in integrity
TH: And let the rest go

Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth- ahhhh

CB: I choose to not let “imagined criticism” stop me from seeking balance

When the limiting thoughts come back tap on the UE and say: “Choosing to focus on what I can control---me.”
