Never good enough

How To Overcome The Belief You Are Never Good Enough

You are never good enough!

Let’s start by asking, “Where did the belief that you are never good enough come from?” Think back to when you were a young toddler and starting your journey in life seeing the world for the first time, experimenting and learning new things. You may have stumbled a few times, fell, broke some things in your path and a well-meaning adult may have told you no, that’s not right, you’re wrong, you can do it better, it’s not good enough, try again, at least a few thousand times.

You got up and kept trying and found through many trials and tribulations that there was actually a right way and a wrong way of doing things. At the end of the day you decided to give a meaning to what those well-meaning adults that were guiding you told you, that you are never good enough. No matter how hard you tried there was always something you can do or be better at so it seemed.

The reality is that as a young toddler you may have felt you were never good enough because you knew nothing and were learning. That would be normal. No one as an infant knows everything nor are you expected to. You may have interpreted those early years as lessons that you are never good enough and they became your beliefs.

Well-meaning adults projected their rules and beliefs on you and wanted you to have every opportunity they could give. Today, yesterday’s beliefs would not be your reality unless you choose to make it that way, because you have had years of education and life experience that made you more resourceful in those areas that you had none as a toddler.

Unfortunately, you created a limiting belief that says “I’m never good enough” that continues to play in your mind even when it has no merit or proof today. This has been the challenge for centuries for mankind. People replaying an antiquated belief that you are never good enough and not having the tools or resources to change it.

How do you change that limiting belief from feeling never good enough to more than enough? It is really quite simple. It starts with identifying the root of it all and weeding it out. Look at where the belief came from and in the context it was delivered. Ask yourself is it still true today? If the answer is no, you now get to choose to hold on to it, eliminate it or replace it with something more empowering.

Know that you cannot prove a belief. A belief is something that you gave meaning to. Therefore, beliefs are the lies we tell ourselves. You get to choose to continue to have them live on or you can replace them with something that will better serve you today.

Think back to the first time you learned to walk, ride a bicycle, or drive. Each of these at the beginning may have felt daunting. As if you would never be good enough at them until it became second nature and you no longer have to think about it you just do it.

History shows us many famous people today that were told at some point in their life that they were not enough and they went on to be more than enough.

Ludwig van Beethoven teachers felt in his formative years that despite his love of composing that he was hopeless at it and would never succeed with it or the violin. He decided to not listen to what others told him you they said you are never good enough and continued on his own path and composed some of the best-loved symphonies of all time–five of them while he was completely deaf.

Remember I Love Lucy? Lucille Ball was told by her drama instructors to find another profession and she was considered a failed actress, on the B-list. She challenged their belief of never being good enough and proved them wrong.

Marilyn Monroe wanted to have a career in modeling and she was told she was never good enough by the agencies and should consider becoming a secretary. Fortunately, she didn’t listen to them.

You do not need to become a Beethoven, Lucille Ball or Marilyn Monroe to be good enough but you do need to let go of the old limiting beliefs of you are never good enough and make a decision to move on. Become the best version of you possible. You are an original. There is no one else in the world like you. That alone makes you good enough!

If despite your best efforts, you continue to feel like you are never good enough, seek professional help. If left unchecked, feeling like you are never good enough could lead to anxiety and depression. A trained professional can help you overcome it now.

Every 62 Minutes Someone Dies from an Eating Disorder

Someone You May Know Dies Every 62 Minutes from an Eating Disorder: Anorexia, Bulimia or Compulsive Overeating!

Eating Disorders: Anorexia, Bulimia, Compulsive Overeating is Closer Than You Think…

It is sad to share this with you but I feel it is my duty as this month is Eating Disorder Awareness. A young woman dies from anorexia and bulimia yesterday and she is not an anomaly, it is more common than you may think. She happens to have lived less than 30 minutes from my home and I never heard from her or met her before. Over 30 million people suffer from some form of eating disorder and every 62 minutes at least one person dies as a direct result.

Many people do not realize the seriousness of the DIS-EASE until it hits home. Know that you already have people in your lives that are battling an eating disorder that aren’t publicly sharing their journey it can be you’re sister, brother, mother, friend, cousin, aunt, even grandma.

I for one walked this path from the ages of 17-30 years old. I didn’t start out choosing it but it was one I learned quickly and needed help to stop. I was a compulsive over-eater, binge eater and bulimic. I kept it a secret until I lost so much weight, my potassium got too low and had a sudden heart attack at the age of 18. I fortunately didn’t die, but it was by no means my efforts. My parents did everything in their power to help me. I did everything in my power to keep it a secret and lied to them and everyone else to stay in the disease. I spent 13 years in and out of hospitals 6 times, tricked every doctor into letting me leave knowing full well that I really wasn’t healthy enough to get out and would only repeat the insanity. I was tossed around to different treatment centers, psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, the best of the best, but still I found ways to stay sick. It is an insidious DIS-EASE. Eating disorders are about feelings, not food. It is usually the very bright capable ones that have the hardest time and fall into the disease because no matter what they do it will never be good enough. I fortunately found the way out, but many do not. I finally decided to go from feeling F.I.N.E (F’d Up, Insecure, Neurotic and Emotional) to being FAB (Fabulous Awesome Beautiful). It took changing my neuro associations to the programs I was running so I can find peace with myself.

People are struggling every day with eating disorders and they are not prejudice to who can have them.

They show up in a myriad of ways but the most common are:

Anorexia Nervosa where they starve themselves, restrict intake and feel themselves unworthy of food.
Bulimia Nervosa where they binge and purge abnormally large quantities of food in a short period of time, followed by purging to avoid the weight gain. Challenge can go undiagnosed for years because most of them are average weight or about 10lbs overweight. They could consume thousands of calories in a single meal and eliminate it to start again. I got to the point where I was consuming 18,000 calories a day.
Binge Eating Disorder “BED” commonly known as compulsive overeating, where they go on sporadic insane binges when you are alone eating everything in sight and never feeling physically hungry. It is an unstoppable feeling of losing control. They use food to stuff their emotions pain or pleasure. Men and women suffering usually struggle with emotions of depression, disgust, shame, or guilt. The negative feelings that usually accompany binge eating often lead him or her to continue to use food to cope; thus creating a vicious cycle. What we do privately shows up publicly.

Although these conditions are treatable, the symptoms and consequences can be injurious and deadly if not appropriately addressed. Eating disorders frequently show up alongside other mental health issues, such as depression, alcohol or drug abuse and anxiety disorders. People who suffer from eating disorders also risk serious, and sometimes fatal, health complications, including serious heart conditions and kidney failure. This is why it’s particularly important for eating disorders to be recognized, diagnosed and treated.

The reasons for the occurrence of eating disorders can vary from effects of media, peer pressure among friends, family, social and cultural situations, childhood traumas, body dissatisfaction, low self-esteem, difficulty coping with feelings.

Make sure if you find out your loved one is suffering get them the help of a professional that has walked the walk and talks the talk. Traditional means weren’t the answer for me and with the statistics of so many people dying to the tune to 24 people a day we need to help them get the proper care.

Call me or call somebody, but help save a life today! I have helped thousands of people over the years, but we can’t help those we don’t know about. Secrets kill the people holding them!!! Be a LIFESAVER!

“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.” – Marcus Aurelius

“Stop trying to fix yourself, you’re not broken! You are perfectly imperfect and powerful beyond measure.” – Steve Maraboli

17. To be honest, letting go of people or things is not easy. But once you let things go, happiness finds you and that’s a way of telling yourself you did the right thing.
“Be strong to let go and patient enough for what you deserve.”

18. No one is perfect and we can always learn something new. It’s about effort. There are tons of ways to give effort even if you don’t know what to do but doing nothing or giving up is not a good decision to make.
“There’s no need to be perfect to inspire others. Let people get inspired by how you deal with your imperfections.”

19. Take care of yourself. You must tell yourself that no matter how hard it is, or how had it gets, you’re going to make it. Never rely your happiness on someone.
“In life nobody and nothing will help you until you start helping yourself.”

20. You spent your whole life developing a negative mindset. It might be a good idea to invest some time in creating a positive one.
“Having a positive mindset is one of the most powerful life strategies of living a happier life.”

21. Happiness is not a by product of something outside of you. Happiness should start within you.
“You can decide to “do happy”. Happiness is a decision for everyone anyway.”

22. Most people are searching for happiness outside of themselves. I tell you, that’s a mistake. Happiness is something you are, and it comes from within you.
“40% of your happiness is controlled by your thoughts, actions and behaviors. 10% by your circumstances. 50% is genetically determined.”

23. Live life one day at a time. Choose to be happy every single day and things will change. Being happy never goes out of style.
“We can train ourselves to be happy.”

24. Women can let their mind wonder into a million places in a matter of a minute.
“A lady’s imagination is very rapid, it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.”

25. You’re already F.A.B. Fabulous, Awesome & Beautiful!
“No matter how you look like or think you look like, you’re special and loved and perfect just the way you are.” – Ariel Winter

Feeling like you are never good enough can be a thing of the past. Always remember and never forget that you are worthy and deserving of great things just because you are you.
There is nothing you need to do or say to be good enough. Just being, is enough!

20 Inspiring Self-Esteem Quotes to Boost Self Love

Inspiring self-esteem quotes to boost your self-worth. The most important relationship you will ever have in your life is the one you have with yourself. This being said it is the one you learned the least about while you were growing up. You were taught to be kind to your siblings, parents, family, friends, even strangers but there wasn’t a lot of emphasis on yourself.

You may have been taught from an early age that focusing on yourself was selfish, but that is incorrect, it is self-love. Your self-esteem is made up of your thoughts, feelings and opinions of yourself and reflects your own worth. It also affects your judgment and attitude toward yourself. This intern affects how you see the world.

The best advice I was ever given was from my grandma, she said “take care of your mothers’ daughter”. I’d like to give you that gift here now.

Change the inner world and watch the outer world provide. If you want to improve your relationships with those around you, start with your own. You need to boost your self-esteem so you can see the beauty within, then you will be able to see it in others.

There are many different ways you can boost your self-esteem but I hope these 20 inspiring quotes will help you along your journey to get there:

1.Think kind thoughts of yourself and others. As individuals think and believe, so they are.
“Every person is the creation of himself, the image of his own thinking and believing. As individuals think and believe, so they are.” – Claude M. Bristol

2. Your thoughts become your destiny.
“We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far. “ – Swami Vivekananda

3. You are not your behaviors. Let go of what once was and begin living in this moment now.
“You are not your mistakes; they are what you did,not who you are.” – Lisa Lieberman-Wang

4. Make yourself a priority. It is not being selfish, it is self-love. Once you love yourself more everything will change.
“Be everything to you, not everything to everybody” – Lisa Lieberman-Wang

5. Accept yourself for who you are. You are one of a kind.
“One of the most courageous things you can do is identify yourself, know who you are, what you believe in and where you want to go.” – Shiela Murray Bethel

6. Stop criticizing yourself. Treat yourself like a stranger if you are nicer to strangers.
“Accept yourself as you are right now.” – Lisa Lieberman-Wang

7. Don’t rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you are responsible for that. If you don’t do that for yourself, then no one will. Love YOURSELF more.
“Start loving yourself and everything else will come.”

8. Accept yourself as you are right now. Welcome imperfections by focusing on what you have gained from the process of doing the best you can.
“Avoid focusing on what you cannot do. Instead, focus on what you can do and accomplish without expecting approval and recognition from others.”

why do we stay in unhealthy relationships

June 19 2017

Why Am I Staying In An Unhealthy Relationship?

It’s no secret, you lay in bed at night asking the same question over and over again “Why am I staying in an unhealthy relationship?” hoping to get a different answer to what you already know is true. You feel like it’s better the devil you know than the one you don’t, but is it?

You stay in an unhealthy relationship because it is filling a need. A need you believe you are unable to fill anywhere else so you settle for less than you deserve. That relationship can be with a significant other, a sibling that is not very nice, a job you don’t like or even your use of food, alcohol or spending to fill a need you are having a hard time meeting through healthy means.

Many people stay in unhealthy relationships for years thinking they are stuck or have no choice. The truth is the answer to getting out of an unhealthy relationship is pretty simple and easy to correct, it starts with you!

“Your relationship is a reflection of the one you have with yourself.”

If you have an unhealthy relationship with yourself, it will be reflected in the relationships you have with others. You treat yourself poorly, you will accept the same behavior of others upon you. If you have a low self-esteem and don’t think you are worthy or deserving, you will let others walk all over you. You feel unlovable you will accept people who treat you that way. At the end of the day it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

You can change it all and get out of unhealthy relationships and into healthy ones by starting with you.

Start believing you are worthy. You didn’t need to do anything to be loved when you were born. Nothing changed as you grew up. You are worthy of being loved just because you are you. Start treating yourself with the love and respect you desire now.

Know you are deserving. You are deserving of a healthy relationship with yourself and others. One that is based on unconditional love. You are deserving of kindness and consideration start with practicing giving it to yourself now.

Learn to F.L.Y. – First Love Yourself! You will never do good things for someone you don’t like so learn to F.L.Y. now. Eliminate the unhealthy relationship you have with yourself by treating yourself as you would a stranger in need. Give yourself the gift of love and acceptance. Be nice to yourself and value the gift you were given just being born.

Believe you are already good enough. You may feel you need to be more to have all that you desire but you are already good enough. There is nothing you need to do or be that would make you more perfect. Know that you are already good enough, perfectly imperfect making you one of a kind.

Remember you are a human “being” not a human “doing”. Start being in this moment the best version of yourself and celebrate the gifts you bear and share them with the world.

Once you start applying these simple suggestions you will find the next time you ask yourself, “Why am I staying in an unhealthy relationship?” you will know it isn’t about you any longer.

Letting go of the past, anger, resentment, fear or relationships will open you to unlimited possibilities in your life.
Imagine holding on to something with both of your hands and someone comes to you and has this amazing gift to offer. You look at it wrapped up so nicely you know it will be something great, but you go to reach for it and your hands are already full. You are unable to take the gift. You choosing to hold on and not letting go limits you from grabbing what is right in front of you. It may be exactly what you are looking for but you will never know if you don’t learn how to let go of what no longer serves you.
