Chapter 3 - What’s Your “Not Enoughness” Story?
Using the questions below for some guidance, write your “not enoughness” story.
Remember, it is just a story you’ve been telling yourself, not the ultimate truth about who you are.
When you become aware of it, it can stop controlling your life.
Using a note book, write down your story.
- Do you remember the last time you felt not enough (less than someone or helpless in front of the task ahead)? What was it?
2. Describe the way you felt.
3. What was your inner dialogue? What were you saying to yourself?
Here you’ll find your story, it usually goes along the lines of “I can’t do it, because I am not smart enough.
I need to read another book, go on another course…”
Now, I want you to find two positive things about that scenario.
Did you ask for help, voice your feelings, did you acknowledge that these feelings are not the trust about you, were you kind to yourself? Did you try anyway?
Everyone gets overwhelmed, everyone has moments of self doubt, but we need to start actively looking for and noticing the positive things we do! We need to start being proud of ourselves, be our own cheerleaders!!
