What if the voice in my head is right?

“What if the voice in my head is right?”

A client asked this of me. She was playing Devil’s Advocate. 

We were talking about the voice in her head that says she can’t be the leader she wants to be.

Why do we always think the negative voice is right? The inner critic. The saboteur. The little devil on our shoulder whispering the judgmental, fearful, destructive thoughts. 

What if we were able to ask “What if the voice in my head is right?” about the OTHER voice. The one that tells us we can do the thing. We can bring the change we want to see. We can learn the skills. We can lead. 

There are a million voices in our head. We can learn to listen to the ones that serve and uplift us.
