3 tips to overcome self-criticism—from an Olympian | Lisa Weagle | TEDxMechanicsville
Legendas (329 segmentos)
When I was a kid, I used to love
watching the Olympics on TV. The
athletes were like superheroes to me,
powerful and determined and fearless. I
assumed that they were all just brimming
with self-confidence and that once you
got to that level, all of your doubt
just disappeared.
Now, I was just a kid who loved the
sport of curling, and becoming an
Olympian seemed like an impossible
dream. But that didn't stop me from
trying.
I was always driven by setting and
achieving big goals. And I used to think
that if I just achieved my goals, then
I'd finally feel like I was enough. That
if I just became an Olympian, that if I
just won a gold medal, then that
negative voice inside my head would be
silenced and I'd be happy and fulfilled
and complete.
Well, after years of training and
against the odds, it actually happened.
I became an Olympian. But it was in that
moment that I realized something I never
expected.
That your inner critic doesn't vanish.
And maybe it even gets louder. The
stakes are higher and the expectations
are greater. And that little voice we
all have inside that whispers, "You're
not good enough." It doesn't go away.
Have you ever told yourself that you'd
finally be happy once you reached the
next milestone? Once you got the
promotion or you bought the dream house
or you hit that personal best you were
chasing.
The thing is, even when we achieve our
goals, that joyful feeling we're
searching for doesn't always come. Or if
it does, it can be fleeting.
A few moments of happiness and a little
celebration, but then we move the
goalposts and we're back to chasing
again.
I know this because I lived it.
At the 2018 Olympics, my team was ranked
number one in the world. We were
expected to win a medal, but instead we
missed the playoffs.
I'll never forget the headline the next
day in the Globe and Mail. It said,
"Canada's Olympic women's curling team
will be remembered for one thing,
dropping the curling ball."
It was devastating. And that headline
validated everything my inner critic had
been saying that you had a chance and
you blew it and you're a failure and now
everybody knows it. And even when my
team did win big events, that critical
voice never really went away. I remember
standing on top of the world
championship podium. I had a gold medal
