Don’t let that negative thinking get you down.

Your inner critic is simply doing its job to maintain the status quo. You, the entrepreneur, on the other hand, are constantly pushing the envelope as you expand your business, so expect to hear a lot of resistance from your inner critic.

To combat this nasty saboteur, remind yourself that doubt and fear are a natural part of the growth process, acknowledge that it’s your inner critic talking and not you, thank your inner critic for its concern, and choose instead to focus on what you’re doing well. (And hey why not revisit your “Kudos and Feel Good” folder while you’re at it?)

Take one dose of Left-Brain Chill Pill as needed to quiet your judging mind.
