You are your own worst critic. Stuck in a regressive cycle of self-deprecating thought patterns, you struggle to break free from self-imposed restrictions. When you can’t imagine anything better, you confine yourself to bad situations. Although you may feel powerless, remember—you are not a helpless victim. Acknowledge the influence of your inner saboteur and shift your perspective to change your situation. The key to recovery is self-empowerment, so reclaim your personal power through accountability. The proof is in the calzone— baked in with the fork, knife, and measuring cup.
