Eh, I'm no shrink, but I think the answer is "it depends." See, some people thrive on compliments and get devastated by negative feedback. For them, negative self-talk is probably a bad idea. Others are stubborn asses who hear criticism and move mountains to prove the criticizer wrong. Those people would probably benefit from negative self-talk. And vice-versa. Just like not everyone is right-handed or extroverted, this one-size-fits-all shrink-rap can be misleading. But what do I know? Don't listen to me; I'm an idiot. |
