Talking negatively or complaining about others is self-destructive. It’s usually an unconscious attempt to boost our ego by comparing ourselves favorably to them. Because our subconscious minds don’t distinguish who it is we’re speaking about, it naturally assumes we’re talking about ourselves. This actually lowers our self-esteem and confidence. Since most criticism is an unconscious nod to the critic’s ego, it’s a good idea to catch ourselves in the act and transform the bad habit into a good one. Every time we catch ourselves judging others, we can use it as an opportunity to…
Look for something good, instead.
