From my book Traveling at the Speed of Love Write down all the nit-picky, self-critical commentary running through your mind concerning these behaviors, such as I’m so stupid for forgetting that, I’m really a bad person for making this mistake, or I’m so disappointed with myself I cannot stand it. Then ask yourself, If this were my last day alive, which, if any, of these “nitpickers” would matter? Highlight the ones that do matter and strive to correct them. Cross out the ones that don’t and give them no more attention. Doing this trains your mind to be more selective in what it focuses on, sorting between truly damaging behaviors that deserve your attention and self criticism that only reflects the ego’s vain and inane attempt at perfection. The poor behaviors that truly matter will soon start to bother you enough to stop doing them. The inane ones will soon stop affecting your peace of mind. vibes.guru/travelingatthespeedoflove
