Masterclass on Arresting The Harsh Inner-Critic
Data-backed strategies to overcome your inner-critic so you can negotiate effectively, position yourself for a promotion, and lead with confidence
4 signs ⤵️ that you have a harsh inner-critic
👉🏼 Whatever you do is never good enough, and your first focus is on what you could've done better rather than what went well
👉🏼 You hold yourself to impossibly high standards... often striving for flawlessness
👉🏼 Not only are you critical of yourself, you get extremely affected by others' assessment of your work
👉🏼 Even when you achieve, the happiness associated with achievements is quite short-lived
So how does this stop your career growth?
Because your inner-critic will convince you that...
👉🏼 You shouldn't apply for that promotion because you haven't done enough
👉🏼 You shouldn't ask for that pay raise because you aren't good enough
👉🏼 You shouldn't share your thoughts in a meeting because you don't know enough
👉🏼 You shouldn't showcase your work in the monthly review because you didn't achieve enough
👉🏼 You shouldn't look for a leadership position because you aren't worthy enough
And then…
You find that someone else got that salary hike or promotion even though their work wasn’t half as decent as yours... leaving you confused, disillusioned, and resentful!
Adverse effects of having a harsh inner-critic
Questioning compliments or brushing them off
People with a harsh inner-critic tend to brush off compliments or get awkward when someone appreciates them. In some situations, they start to question the motive behind the person giving compliments! It's difficult for them to accept the compliment for what it is... a compliment for job well done!
Seeking validation or people-pleasing behaviour
People with a strong inner-critic tend to be fearful of speaking their mind, and have a strong need to be accepted by their peers/management. They are afraid to say anything that might rock the boat and second-guess all their moves!
Difficulty receiving critical feedback from others
While perfectionists are very critical of themselves, they have a hard time accepting critical feedback from *others*. While they have a strong desire to learn, improve and excel, they tend to completely shut down and may feel deep resentment on receiving critical feedback.
All of these traits can be extremely debilitating and can stop us from thriving at our workplace.
If we are questioning compliments, not speaking our mind and leading with confidence, or not able to assess feedback objectively, we will have a tough time positioning ourselves for a promotion or career growth even if we want to!

My pricing for those based outside India is not an exact currency conversion of the price that's charged to those in India because it is based on Purchasing Power Parity and not Currency Conversion Rate. Most multinational brands price their products based on this.
That's why, when you buy a packet of Maggi noodles (or anything else for that matter) outside India, it is not an exact currency conversion of the INR amount that it's sold for in India but rather adjusted to purchasing power parity.
For eg. a can of coke costs about ₹50 in India and about $2 in the US. This is different from currency conversion because ₹50 is much lesser than a dollar.
So the purchasing power parity right now between INR and USD is about ₹25 which means that the value of ₹25 is about the same as value of $1 in terms of what you can buy from it. And that's how this course is priced as well.
