I realized today in my Scholars Coaching Session that even though I know and intellectually believe that negative emotions (judgement, beating one’s self down) is not going to lead to a positive result, I am actively living out judging myself in hopes of changing my behavior. Specifically, I am judging myself for not getting out of bed when my alarm goes off and I’m holding on to that judgement with both hands hoping that it will eventually motivate me to get up when the alarm goes off – even though I know better! How do I begin to let go of the judgement?
