That sounds like a great things to learn, that the negative comments of the inner critic don't really bother/affect one so negative comments in the outer world shouldn't either.

I've never "liked" what my inner critic says and am argumentative in real life so I easily argue with the inner critic :-) If I say something negative about myself out loud, one will hear me instantly refute it also; I sound like a crazy woman :-) Once at work I had an argument going like that out loud and a "third" person entered in (a resonable sort trying to break up the argument that wasn't getting anywhere :-) and my coworker nearly fell on the floor laughing. She said it was bad enough listening to two of "them" but when the third one entered. . . My favorite though is when my head and hands got into an argument about which had caused a typo. . . LOL!
