Getting Past the Fear of Criticism

One of the big fears - we talk about 10 'Mindset Anchors' - that can hold us back is fear of criticism.This can be from bosses, from colleagues, from patients, or online comments.  Anytime we're branching outside of our comfort zone we can be afraid of getting criticized.  If we're not careful this can hold us back in our business or career.So how do we get past it?  Here's a few ideas: If it's valid criticism, accept the kernel of truth, grow from it and move onJudge the judger - is this someone whose opinion you truly value?Recognize no one is judging or criticizing you who is doing MORE than you're doingYou're always being judged anyway, so you might as well be judged for doing what you believe in and feels authenticUltimately, the answer is action.  Keep your mind on your goal and the reason you're doing the new thing.  Remind yourself of the higher purpose and the bigger reason for what you're doing, and the fear of criticism will start to fade in the rearview mirror.Clinical CoursesAll of the Rising clinical courses are designed to challenge the way you think and make you more confident in your clinical practice.  All online and go-at-your-own pace, you'll have lifetime access to the lectures and handouts.  Check out all the clinical courses we offer (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical).Business ResourcesIf you're starting or growing a cash-based pelvic health practice, we've got some great resources for you!  We've helped more than 200 practices take off in markets across the country.  From business courses, handouts and resources to true business mentorship in our Rising program, we've got something that can help.  Check out all our Business Resources (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) and fill out the Entrepreneur Survey there!About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health.   PelvicSanity Physical Therapy together in 2016.  It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.Through Pelvic PT Rising, Nicole has created clinical courses (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical) to help pelvic health providers gain confidence in their skills and provide frameworks to get better patient outcomes.  Together, Jesse and Nicole have helped nearly 200 pelvic practices start and grow through the Pelvic PT Rising Mentorship Program (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) and business courses to change the way pelvic health is administered.Get in Touch!Learn more at www.pelvicptrising.com, follow Nicole @nicolecozeandpt (www.instagram.com/nicolecozeandpt) or reach out via email ([email protected]).Check out our Clinical Courses, Business Resources and learn more about us at Pelvic PT Rising...Let's Continue to Rise!
