博客來If you have the urge to try something new, but just can’t bring yourself to begin, you’re not alone. With a nagging inner critic in all of us, waiting in the wings to sabotage from the sidelines, it can feel tough to get started and impossible to see it through.
Despite the confidence, resilience and motivation you may bring to other aspects of your life, negative internal dialogue can crush some of the most exciting opportunities, forcing you to succumb to self-imposed pressure and give up. Returning to a comfort zone that keeps you stuck and unsatisfied in life.
Sink or Swim, 28 Days To Kill My Inner Critic, is one woman’s account of her commitment to diving in, despite the ever present vicious voice. Bella Morris walks us through a month-long journey, from fearfully clinging to her couch, to taking the plunge and pushing herself out into a world she’d only been watching from afar.
Using dark humour and a murderous plan to boost her bravery, this motivating memoir is the perfect companion to help kick your own confidence into gear. A raw and honest insight into the process of drowning out doubt and daily self-sabotage.
Take a leaf out of this book, and whatever you dream of doing, from cycling to singing, mountaineering to motocross, dancing to dog training, cosplay to kickboxing, make now your time. Social media feeds may give you a glimpse of the goal from the comfort of your couch, but nothing compares to getting out there and trying it for yourself. So stop scrolling, settle in, read on and get revved up to kill your own inner critic, for once and for all.
