Feels really good to personify these voices in my head. I understand who is who and which voice I need to give more attention to.
I am still exploring how I need to bring out my inner coach and how my inner critic affects me
I saw the inner critic as the previously generated AI imagine and I saw myself/heard my own voice as the inner coach. I’m intrigued to see if I can think positively in moments I’m struggling with the critic
My over coach is finding his voice. He’s quieter than my inner critic still but that’s a lack of practice. He helps disrupt my inner critic but can’t over power or stop him yet.
Felt strong
It made me feel better and relieved. The critic was still there, but there was significant pushback.
The critic is becoming an echo and the coach is starting to be a funny bastard.
It’s getting me out of my head.
It’s hard for me to picture my critic and coach clearly, but I can definitely hear their voices. The coach tells me to approach the present and future with confidence. The critic tries to get me focused on the past.
My coach knows my critic is a little bitch who only spreads fear with its little lies.
My inner coach encourages me to appreciate the excitement of the moment, rather than being scared.
I didn’t get that far in the exercise. But generally am in the habit of countering a self put-down with a defense of myself
I learned that the inner critic can be drowned out with practice but mine stims from self doubt and low self worth 🧎🏻➡️
It’s very strong and energetic
My inner coach will remind me to remember my past successes and my potential for more success in the future.
It felt like it was myself, patting me on the shoulder and telling me that I can try but doesn’t matter if I fail because we’re going to get better. The process is going to be long but every day I spend trying is another day toward success. I’m going to call on my coach to be there for me when my critic gets louder
Honestly I thought of Superman, it’s like a supportive male role model who has my back and understands my struggles
I thought of my dad who gives me so much support. I heard him
I think he is my father. Always guiding me with care but confidence. I know that what he tells me is the best decision.
It’s myself, making things light hearted and relaxed
I learned that I know he’s a lot stronger than my self critic and that I’ve just succumbed to my inner critic these last few years, kind of like I’ve put myself in invisible handcuffs but I feel like addressing these things will give me the tools I need to get myself out of metaphorical jail
