I stopped that voice in my head that would constantly pop up and say "I'm so stupid" or similar variations.

It took me some time to understand that mistakes are just mistakes and everyone makes them. It easy to take all the blame and demean yourself for every little thing, but it feels so much better to stop those words in their tracks and reevaluate.
