Don’t judge your motivation, transform it with growth
You don’t need to justify wanting something. For example, thinking of reasons why it’s okay to want to become famous and rich, in hope that this goal is acceptable to others or even to yourself. If you do that, it’s actually the inner critique secretly working.
There’s literally no benefit in judging or criticizing yourself. But there’s a great benefit to simply bringing awareness to why you want something. The difference is evident in your emotion when you are in touch with your true motivation. Are you simply aware of it, feeling proud, or resentful?
If you have the intention of self-transformation and becoming wiser and bigger, you will naturally transform what you want as a person.
Be patient, don’t criticize, and keep learning about what’s best for you.
