Mark McGuinness - Resilience: Facing Down Rejection - Plot & Excerpts
Your harshest criticYou know who I mean. Typically, your harshest critic is not the one who gives you a bad review, or leaves a snarky comment online, or heckles during a presentation, or delivers a scathing put-down in a meeting. It’s a lot closer to home than that. These critics can only really touch a nerve when they say something you are already saying to yourself. Or to put it another way, they chime in with your Inner Critic. If you don’t pay attention to what is happening here, you will be at the mercy of your Inner Critic—and the external critics who somehow manage to channel it—for the rest of your life. But if you recognize the presence of your Inner Critic, and find a way of dealing with it, you will become far more resilient.The most important thing to understand here is that your Inner Critic is not telling the ultimate truth about you. It’s just a small part of you, giving you a highly selective and distorted account of yourself. But the Inner Critic is cunning.
