Do you get stuck in negative self-talk trying to figure out where you went wrong? If you spent one whole day listening to your thoughts, you might be quite shocked at just how much self-criticism you do.

A recent study shows that many women berate themselves numerous times throughout the day, but don’t even view it as self-judgment, thinking they are being truthful or realistic.
