Self-criticism: "Where did I go wrong?"

After a break for the holidays back to talk about meditation going to touch a topic a bit 'critical self-criticism


Wikipedia defines self-criticism as:
Self-criticism is to examine and judge their behavior in order to improve it.
.............
is the result of a rigorous personal reflection and group.

Self-criticism in the West was born in politics and especially in the Marxist scope.
Also in practice, and politics becomes the primary method of Maoism.
In this context, is used to solve the problems of party ideological and practical administration as well as to publicly humiliate dissidents and political opponents.





accezzione In another context and in another part of the Christian faith under the name "Examination of Conscience", obtaining a practice dedicated to the Catholic Church called "Confession of sins."



made clear historical and cultural, the abandon, devoting themselves to studies of psychological and social (psychosocial) on this practice, often unconscious, and sometimes very harmful.

In psychology studies how self-critical in cases of anxiety and depression, obtaining the identifier of the so-called "self-criticism depreciation"

devalued self-criticism is that mode of action against themselves capable of the depreciation of their skills, affection, emotion and instintualità, as well as its intelligence.
It's like tip on a number of wagons of junk, then dabble in it.
becomes clear that this type of self-criticism does not help, nor do we grow, we indeed diminish before our very eyes inducing a state of low self-esteem ....

defined the devalued self-criticism and understanding that there can be useful, psychology comes to our aid by defining "the self-critical re-evaluation".

This type of self-criticism is based on their self-esteem and the extent of it.
A person with good self-esteem has the power to analyze himself, to understand the mistakes and problems, and then find solutions and continue migliormanto methods, in practice it get in the game all the time, aware of possible failures, successes and possible .

In the Eastern world of Taoist philosophy and practice that exists is often called "the laugh at themselves "

Let's try a little 'exercise: Imagine
to see in the mirror, what is the funniest thing I find you?
If you do not find anything, look better ... but if you can not find it I suggest you put your feet on the ground ....
If you find all the ridiculous, look what you like instead of you ... if you do not find it look better ... if you still can not find it I suggest you try a little 'best, and find the points that you can improve your appearance quickly replenish your self esteem ... maybe ....

This exercise serves to remind you that we are human, funny, but not too serious, so to speak. ... .... we all

we live in a comedy, that is for us to recite it, according to a script that we have to invent at the moment, on a huge stage called reality ....
If you are feeling serious, smile ... you are funny!
If you cry, smile ... you are funny!
If you feel angry, smile ... are trigger-happy!
This principle is based Taoist self-criticism " laugh at himself."


Once you actually managed to smile to yourself, even if a second before you're angry, you cry, or worse still you felt serious, welcome to the club of the blessed Taoist ...

According to Taoism
fact even the saints and prophets can not always be serious, but ...


Taoist Self-criticism is in fact based on the similarity between animals and funny man ....
such as a monkey

Can you imitate a monkey? Do it!
How do you feel? Funny? Bravo!

What most of you were ape? Maybe you're hairy like a monkey, or managed well to make the sound of the monkey, or whatever ...
Now try to think to see from outside that imitate the monkey ... you are funny is not it? You're smiling ... Or am I wrong?

If you fail to try the monkey any other animal that you find funny ...

Good! Without the latter year now we go back to us: What
of your life is funny?
And what would you like better?
How would you do?
What's the first thing you do?
What would be the barriers?
how to overcome them?

Meditate on this, you can use:

And while you do remember ... smile ... you are funny as a Monkey King !!!!!
