Self-Criticism

'Remember that you are only 22, because you keep forgetting that.'

    Self-criticism is not just a thing. It is real. It brings you down, reminds you of the mistakes that you have made, makes you guilty about it, and dumps you right there while it takes away your hope. Many people are victims of self-criticism. I am a victim.
    No, I was a victim. This very point that I am writing this as a note to myself, and also as a note to yourself, is the exact moment that I realize I am walking out of it, for the good.
Many people think it is wrong to have big dreams. But if not dreams that we have, what else can we do right for ourselves and at the same time contribute to humanity?
    Dreams are calling from the consciousness. They are the alarms to the soul, reminding you all the time that, it is YOUR thing to do, and you CAN do it. But instead, because we have been so indulged in self-criticism that we begin criticizing our big dreams, denying our ever-expanding potentials, and then setting a limit to what we can do, so that we are safe in THE ZONE.
    What zone and what limits? We are human beings, and a human brain alone uses up to 20% of the body energy. We do unexpected things, and that is what we do. We create solutions, because we have to ability to think critically when learned to question the fundamentals.
    Whenever you deny your ideas, or whenever someone denies your ideas, accept and value the critical problems. Proceed from then on, improve your ideas by solving these problems. Through that, you create a newly improved system, that is better, more efficient and provides much more values to people. What you need to do is not to self-criticize, but to perform critical thinking. These people do not reject you. They are rejecting the idea you portrayed to them, because they found a loophole or a weakness that you must improve to make things better.
    That is the process of innovation or creation. Do you think Albert Einstein have never been rejected before? Or do you think no one has called Stephen Hawking a dreamer? But well I guess a dreamer has gotta do what a dreamer does best. After all, we dream of big ideas.
