Self Talk

Self talk.

I am not nice to myself.

Full stop.

It gets worse when I'm in a hectic season;

but it is also there when I'm slow.

It is so, so easy to let your self talk run away with itself.

It can feel like a full-time job to catch your thoughts and say:

🚫 THAT IS A LIE

🚫 THE EVIDENCE SHOWS OTHERWISE

🚫 EM, YOU WOULDN'T SAY THAT TO A FRIEND

I often believe my thoughts, without . . . a thought.

Without evidence to support them.

In the face of evidence to the contrary.

But, it is a new day, and I can keep trying.

Today, I aim to be nicer to myself.

I hope you will be nice to yourself too.

We're all human after all.
