Self-blame, self-discontent are the main topics for discussion. To this are inclined those whose self-esteem is unstable, any failure they are ready to attribute to their account, and are afraid of failure. The inner critic suppresses his desires, impulses, slows down his plans. It is easier for such a person to become locked in himself than to begin to change something in his life. Therefore, it is very important to be able to examine the problem from two sides, including both emotional and arbitrary thinking, such were the advice of a psychologist.

The longing, hopelessness, meaninglessness of life and the voice of the inner critic prevent us from living more freely and acting more productively.
