Challenging Old Beliefs

 

What stories do I tell myself that no longer serve me?  These views were important to my survival at one point in my life, but hold me back now.  Today, I will challenge the belief systems that prevent me from thriving and affirm what I know is more accurate.

·       I am not good enough --- I am loved just as I am.  I can dare to be adequate.

·       I have to make others happy --- I am responsible for my own happiness and others are responsible for meeting their own needs.

·       I have to be perfect --- Everyone makes mistakes and mine have been valuable opportunities to grow and change.

·       I have to hurry up --- I can take my time, breathe, and be here and now.

·       I can’t show weakness ---  My vulnerability is a gift.  I am safe enough for now.
