Sqoosh Your Inner Critic!

Limiting Belief

I can’t decide!  I need to analyze each choice carefully to see where each will lead.  Maybe make a pros and cons list…

Playback Affirmation

Even though I can’t decide and need to analyze each choice carefully, I deeply and completely accept myself…And in this moment I’m willing to tune into my Inner Guidance and make a decision according to which choice feels better to me.

The inner critic inside of you has probably affected your ability to be decisive and make a major decision at some point in your life (perhaps even right now).  What keeps you from making an  important decision (and sticking to it) is your inner critic who says “But remember the last time you chose something similar and how unhappy it made you?” and if you choose the other choice it might blurt “But what will your friends and family think?”

I read an interesting article from Steve Pavlina today, called Overcoming Indecision.  Pavlina describes the traditional “decision-making process” that many of us fall into and why it’s ineffective.  He suggests an alternative decision-making approach, one that focuses on “The Power of Now“.  While reading his article I thought back to some major decisions I’ve made in the past, and what I can tell you is that when I made decisions from Pavlina’s approach, I was a lot happier and had fewer regrets.
