“Your ability to achieve the goals you have set for yourself is affected by a negative mindset. When your inner critic is constantly telling you that you cannot do something or are not good enough, it increases self-doubt. It also increases self-sabotaging behaviors, which ultimately get in the way of achieving your goals. If you don't believe in yourself, how can you find the motivation needed to achieve your desires?”
