Original Text
Silence the Inner Critic.
Hey, you know being too hard on yourself with self-criticism is like having a downer soundtrack in your mind. It doesn't really help; it just makes you more stressed. It's like trying to make something cool in pottery class while a voice keeps nagging that you're doing it wrong. Try this: when you start being tough on yourself, pause and think, "Would I say this to my best friend?" Like, if you mess up and think, "I'm a failure," stop and ask yourself if you'd ever say that to a friend. You'd probably say, "Mistakes happen, let's fix it." This friend-test changes how you talk to yourself, from criticism to support. It's like giving yourself a little pep talk. Remember, always be as kind to yourself as you would to a friend. You deserve it!
Translation
喝止自我批评的声音
嘿，你知道给自己太过严苛的批评，就像是有一段令人心情每况愈下的 配乐一直在你脑里。这对你其实没什么帮助，只会让你更有压力。这就 像在陶艺课时，你想要做一些很酷的东西，却有个声音一直唠叨你说做 错了。试试这个：当你开始对自己严厉时，停下来想一想，「我会对我 最好的朋友这样说吗？」就像当你搞砸了一件事，并想「我真失败」 时，停下来问问自己，你会这样对朋友说吗？你可能会说「犯错是难免 的，我们来解决吧。」这种朋友测试的自我对话，能把你对自己的批评 转变为支持。这就像是给自己讲一些鼓励的话。记住，永远像对待朋友 一样宽容对待自己。你值得拥有这种善待！
