  • Summary

  • In this lesson you’ll learn to replace self-criticism with motivational self-talk that can sustain change.

    Key ideas:

    1️⃣ Self-criticism makes it hard to start because it builds up even more pressure around the task. It creates the need to escape by procrastinating. 

    2️⃣ To get yourself unstuck, you can replace self-criticism with motivational self-talk.

    3️⃣ Effective self-talk has three characteristics: (1) It separates your behavior from who you are as a person (2) It focuses on what can be done now and in the future, rather than dwelling on the past (3) It replaces phrases like “I have to” and “I should” with “I choose to” and “I will”.
