Who is running your life right now? Is it you, or is it the voice in your head that says you are not good enough? We call this the inner critic or the "evil inner witch." It is the voice of fear, worry, doubt, and insecurity.
For most of us, it is the loudest voice in the room. This inner critic is an old program installed by society or conditioning from how you were raised. It thinks it is protecting you, but it is actually keeping you small.
When the critic is in charge, we overwork to prove our worth, say yes when we want to say no, and chase external metrics while feeling empty on the inside.
Taking Your Power Back: The Three A’s
To win the mind so you can win the world, you have to move from the "get insight" phase to the "win" phase of the GROW model. This requires practicing the Three A’s:
Awareness: Catch the thought when you feel anxious. Be the observer of the thought, not the thought itself.
Acceptance: This is radical; do not fight or shame yourself for having the thought. Acknowledging your humanity in the moment actually disarms the critic.
Action: Once you accept the thought, you must validate your own worth. Do not wait for a boss or partner to tell you that you did a good job; internalize your own wins.
Remember: mindset work takes practice. You would not go to the gym once and expect a brand new body; you cannot do this work once and expect a new life.
