Did you wake up feeling guilty and self-attacking?

Good morning my man,

or evening (I know we have one guy from New Zealand with us).

I woke up today feeling pretty good, but there have been times where I’ve felt like shit.

• Thinking back to the event from the day before and self-attacking because I said something that was fake

• Showed a girl I was interested, and feeling shame around opening up like that

• Had an opportunity to talk with someone, but found a way to escape it

which could drag on for HOURS, if not DAYS - having me waste time, energy and build a horrible self-talk.

If this is you, then you need to step out of it quickly. 

Now, to do that, you need to understand one thing.

All growth is internal work.

Let me repeat that for you

All growth is internal work.

Want to look good? Then push yourself in the gym, discipline your appetite, and stay consistent.

This is all inner work, that is then manifested “out there”.

To have new experiences in the world, you need to have the internal growth.

Now, I’m not saying to sit down and “let go of all your bad feelings and be able to approach and date girls”

you’ve tried that before and it didn’t work.

You need to balance it.

But it all starts within

INternal growth comes from INternal work

Now that you know this, you are ready to swallow this pill…

—> No matter what you did or did not do yesterday,

the solution has nothing to do with the action you did or did not do ←

This means that if you said something where others judged you, then even if you went back in time and said something else, you would not succeed escaping this self-attack.

The reason is that, as we talked about, all the growth comes from within, and that the self-attack you feel is simply there, reminding you, of something that you are avoiding within yourself.

What is that?

To completely answer this, you need to dive inwards

• Journal

• Meditate on it

• Use ChatGPT and ask it questions to figure it out

BUT, if you are feeling guilty,

then from my 11 years of experience there is a 100% chance you need self-compassion.

Here’s a technique that works wonders in releasing the feeling of guilt and self-attack:

1. Close your eyes

2. Breathe and relax

3. Connect to the self-attack in your mind, and give it self-compassion and love, the same way you would to a little kitten or puppy

4. Connect to the emotions of guilt, give it self-compassion and love, the same way you would to a little kitten or puppy

Stay with it until you can forgive yourself and simply feel love and compassion towards all the attack and feelings of guilt.

You got this,
