Critical Thinking
When external negativity infiltrates, it solidifies into what I call "Critical Thinking": that initial surge of self-doubt that attempts to extinguish our dreams, impede our growth, and warp our self-view. This isn't genuine analysis; it's the familiar refrain of "not enough," "incapable," and "futile," rooted in limiting beliefs imposed by external boundaries that dictate what's "unattainable." These doubts cast a long shadow, dimming the very inner light we need to fuel our transformation and keeping us chained to the past pronouncements of our inner critic.
Our default often involves turning this negativity inward, habitually examining our bodies, accomplishments, and inner selves, almost expecting to find fault. This self-inflicted critique then casts a shadow outward, coloring our interactions and world view with judgment, anticipation of failure, and the perception of obstacles as unyielding walls, not potential footholds.
There's a powerful truth I want you to hold onto: that critical voice is not your authentic voice. It's an echo, a learned response. And within each of you lies a sacred space, that can not only silence that critic but also illuminate the path to the abundant life you deeply desire and absolutely deserve. I call this space your mINtor.
Your mINtor is the harmonious center where your mind, heart, and intuition/gut align. It's that quiet, knowing place within you where clarity flourishes, judgment dissolves into understanding, and where your truest self resides. It's where the whispers of your soul guide you towards your unique purpose and the immeasurable gifts you are meant to share with the world.
Connecting with your mINtor is about remembering that we are inherently worthy of abundance in every area of our lives.
Here’s how we can intentionally access the transformative power of our mINtor to dismantle "Critical Thinking" and step into our abundant truth:
Witness the Critic: Become a gentle observer of your thoughts. When that familiar wave of negativity arises, don't immediately engage. Simply notice it, acknowledge its presence without judgment, and recognize it as a separate entity from your core self.
Find Your Stillness: Create intentional moments to connect with your mINtor. Whether it's through prayer, meditation, journaling, spending time in nature, or simply breathing deeply, find the quiet space where you can hear the whispers of your intuition and the yearnings of your heart.
Question the Narrative: When a critical thought surfaces, ask yourself: Is this truly mine? Where did this belief originate? Does it serve me? What evidence contradicts this thought? Let the wisdom of your mINtor guide your inquiry.
Reframe with Love and Truth: Consciously choose to replace those critical narratives with affirmations rooted in self-compassion and your inherent worthiness. Instead of "I'm not capable," whisper, "I am learning and growing." Let your mINtor guide you towards thoughts that nurture and empower.
Embrace Your Desires as Divine Guidance: Your heart's longings are not frivolous; they are clues to your purpose and the abundance that aligns with your soul. Allow your mINtor to illuminate these desires and guide you towards their manifestation.
Share Your Authentic Brilliance: When you operate from the integrated wisdom of your mINtor, you naturally step into your unique power and share your gifts with the world. This act of authentic expression is a magnet for the abundance you deserve.
That "Critical Thinking" voice is a liar. Your mINtor holds the unwavering truth of your limitless present and future. It's time to quiet the external and internal noise that tries to diminish you and instead, listen to the powerful wisdom within. You are worthy. You are capable. You are meant to live and share an abundant life.
