I agree, I am often a lot harsher on myself and my own thoughts than I would be of other people. I suppose we focus so much on ourselves and our reasons for doing things and on every little mistake we make, whereas with other people you don't consider it so much, it's easier to be self-critical than it is to be critical of other people.

It is interesting though, and I think it's helpful to challenge those irrational thoughts sometimes.
