Who are you most critical of? (If you say, ‘No one. I only worry about myself,’ think again…and if your answer is the same, what are you so hard on yourself about?)
I'm a perfectionist so I'm hardest on myself. I am very critical on myself when it comes to school. But I just completed my Master's so now I'm just hard on myself about work. I'm a teacher so I want my kids to do their very best and when they don't I blame myself. I am somewhat hard on some of my brothers and sisters-- just cause I know they are capable of more than what they are doing. I hold them to higher standards.

I'm hard on myself for a variety of reasons. 1)Being a black woman I must always strive for excellence. 2)My kids see what I do so there is no room for failure. 3)I owe it to my parents to be the best.
I think myself too. I can't list the ways I beat myself up lol. Who would come in second? (who you are critical of)
Quoting Bunsmommy:
I'm hard on myself about being successful and I'm a perfectionist so when things don't come out the way I visualize them I lose it!
Quoting .Peaches.:
I've often been told I'm way too hard on myself, and that I'm my own worst enemy.
myself. I am a perfectionist and am critical mostly of my own actions.
