What if you are the one creating this harsh reality on a different level. How can this happen? It is very common in today's society and belief system. You are playing the same tape, the same broken record, over and over again, of negative inner cycles. You create a form of sabotage and self-destruction. This falls under Metaphysical Healing, You are dealing with Core Belief work and Law of Attraction.
I have seen people be their own worse critics, nothing is safe or secure with them. The projects they start are never good enough to finish, they are forever paralyzed in fear. I have seen people fall into many categories:
The Perfectionist
In Psychology, Perfectionism can be viewed as unhealthy. An Artist or Musician may view this as a work benefit. I do believe it depends on your level of Perfectionism. If this behavior pattern is preventing you from achieving success, a healthy love life, causing arguments, delaying projects for long periods of time, causing obsessive disorders and you are losing money, then this is truly an unhealthy characteristic.
I feel this will eventually lead to Neurotic tendencies and cause other emotional Imbalances. Perfectionism is a form of fear and restricting your talents. You can actually burn yourself out with work and harsh criticism. It will only cause misery, pessimism, and lack of satisfaction in the end.
The Pessimistic Person
This type of person, we have heard about. Some individuals will deny their pessimistic behavior. Well, let's view for a moment; they always have the tendency to stress the most negative, unfavorable, terrible, horrible, craziest, gloomiest possible view ever known to mankind. This group of people has no shame or guilt in doing this, to them, this is normal functioning reality. This doctrine of beliefs that tends to lean towards darkness and negativity. If you think about it, it is the exact opposite of God, God is not of pessimism.
Never misunderstand, it is good to balance the pros and cons of any given situation, however; don't push it, you cannot get anywhere abundant or even wealthy being a party crasher. It is similar to raining on everyone's happy parade, stop the madness. This behavior will bite you in the butt one day; you will find your prosperity stuck in manifestation mode. Your destiny is then delayed and blessings at a stand still. You are not only others worse critic but your own as well. You will wonder why you never achieve high standards, dreams, wealth, and career goals. Evaluate your thoughts.
The Conversation Debater
Debating can be fun for high school students, or younger individuals. However; beyond the fun and games, debating others prosperity and dreams turns rotten. Your argument supports the dark side of every situation, and you never play fair. This debater will attack whenever they see the open door of opportunity. You catch your opposing team or individual off balance on purpose. This behavior is so natural, and routine, that it can be overlooked. Let's apply a little psychology here; this desire to debate streams from a series of issues unrelated to your situation. The opposing team will appear to be weak and the perfect victim, caught of guard.
This relates to self-critics, you can be out of control; you have the need for arguments and creating causal debates everyday. This side of you will not only attack others, but turn against you too. You are losing abundance, on this level or arguments. You will attack yourself, any given time or day. Your dreams are trashed in the end. This Type of person will eventually need some form of counseling to dig up the core beliefs. The karma comes back around, again and again.
The Know It All's
The Know it alls can be annoying individuals. At times, their advice comes in handy and useful. You gain knowledge on topics you knew nothing about or would have cared to research. You fall back on the information later, storing it deep into the subconscious mind for others. However; the know it alls are not always correct on all topics. Not all information is researched well or based on true facts. Sometimes, it can be a one-sided perception or experience with no room for other opinions. Some topics they stand firm and solid as an oak tree, “You cannot move me; I am rooted deeply in solid ground and soil.” You have no choice but to listen and hope to move on, the chats can carry on, endlessly. Yes, we all can fall in this category or any others.
The problem is this; if you feel you are more intelligent then the average person, teacher, or authority figure, you will guarantee, apply this behavior to yourself. I am trained in Intuitive Counsel; I have seen this behavior conflict with discernment and your inner voice. We all have God within us and around us. This fact is not always apparent to skeptics, but his creation and your material creations; exist everywhere. You have the power to manifest whatever you need, using energy, thoughts, words, and actions. What if you are blocking God with your many facts and logic, you will always live in a closed minded reality, with dreams unfulfilled. This is a form of sabotage for yourself and others in your working, living, study, and social environments. It is good to study and be wise, but not over do it.
I am sure there are many more self critic categories; this only gives you an idea of healing the mind. When you feel like a victim and nothing seems to move in your direction. Take quiet time to review yourself, look in that inner mirror, what are you doing to improve your situation. We all have levels of control over our destiny. The more panic and fear you grow inside your mind and body, the more you will attract this in your reality.
