Live-With #2: Psych(e) out the VOJ!
This week (and this Live-With) will change your life... Once you have become (explicitly) conscious of the VOJ and how judgments impact your thoughts, fears and action, you are "changed." I believe that you will have new insights into how to deal with judgments-- yours of yourself, yours of others, others of you and so on. As you post your reflections, know that someone else may be waiting to read exactly what you have written!

one of the things I've been realizing, is that my VOJ is generally the voice of my mother. The "word" card exercise we did yesterday - my word was "critical". My mother showed her love by being critical - she thought that was how you help someone improve. It finally occurred to me that, not only was she wrong, but she was wrong about me. I knew her *approach* was wrong, but I hadn't realized or internalized that her view of who I am or of who I "should be" was also wrong. No wonder I keep trying to live as if she were right...
