How to Stop Beatifying Yourself Over Every Time You Make a Mistake

in #motivation3 years ago

How to stop beating yourself up over mistakes and your past? It's a common emotional reaction, especially when you know that your mistakes and shortcomings will be discovered through some sort of self-examination. If you're not used to self-examination, though, it can be a daunting experience. To make things easier for yourself, here are some helpful tips on how to stop beating yourself up over your past failures and shortcomings. You'll also learn how to improve on your present actions in order to become successful in the future.


Self-talk involves your interpretation of your internal and external environments. Each time you experience a setback, analyze why you made the mistake and what you can do to prevent similar errors in the future. If you have negative self-talk when you feel like you've failed, you'll act in the same manner every time you face a challenge. Analyzing why you feel like you've failed is an important part of self-improvement, but beating yourself up over every negative feeling won't help you get anywhere.

Another effective way to get rid of self-talk and begin to look at past successes and current shortcomings is to use the analogy of a savior. People like to think of themselves as a savior orator, so if you talk about how you're a good person with great attributes, people will be attracted to you and be drawn to follow you. For example, if you focus on all of the positive qualities in yourself and the great amount of money you have accumulated, you'll gain more friends and people will want to be around you.

The good news is that this is completely normal. People draw towards others that are good enough for them. It's an attractive quality that we all have. Unfortunately, our subconscious prevents us from recognizing the truth of this and uses self-criticism and self-resentment to sabotage us. If you want to stop beating yourself up and begin to believe that you can be a leader and do what is necessary to help us, your progress is going to be much faster than if you continue to live in denial of your true abilities.

When you decide to stop beating yourself up, you also need to make a decision to stop blaming others. Blaming someone else or denying responsibility for your own actions can only lead to more problems. You must decide that it is OK to make mistakes and then learn from them. People everywhere make mistakes, so don't you? Stop beating yourself up about it!

In order to understand how to stop beating yourself up over mistakes, you must first realize that you are the one who created your own self-image issues. You created your own self-image problem by imagining that you are not good enough, that you are not worthy of love, and that you are not worthy of success. In order to change this thinking, you must first eliminate the negative thoughts associated with it. If you do not eliminate these negative thoughts, you cannot begin to move forward towards success or happiness.

So, the question of how to stop beating yourself up over every time you make a mistake is not the right one. The real question should be how to stop living with the constant fear that your every action or thought is not good enough. This is a mindset problem, not a physical one. This is the exact reason why people end up living with the fear of needles! They have convinced themselves that every time they make a mistake, their lives are ruined forever.

If you truly believe that every mistake is a blessing, you will be able to move on from being a victim to being a creator instead. Instead of beating yourself up over your "mistakes", you will be able to focus on all of the blessings you have received because of them. Instead of focusing on the "wastes" you have caused, you can concentrate on the many blessings you have received from the small "wastes" you have created. Think about it - if you were the greatest creator that everyone ever knew, wouldn't you be focused on being the greatest healer, judge, law-breaker, etc? The truth is, you are already a great leader and/or healer, but you need to stop focusing on the "wasted" parts of your life and realize that there is always something more out there to work with.
