I just had a horrible realization :

As I'm flipping through pictures taken a few years ago, I'm realizing that:

• I have not documented my past two years of college very well
• I am considerably overworked
• I am the one who overworks myself
• I beat myself up over this fact
• I am my own worst critic
• My worst critic is convinced that I will never be enough
• I am the only person telling myself such
• I am not living in the present tense

How stupid to think that I'm any of the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad things that this voice inside my head is convinced that I am. I'm totally better than that (ironic example of negative self-talk).


Well, at least I caught this issue now, rather than later. Now to replace the tape with a positive, more encouraging one.
