In this episode, I share the three fundamental truths that formed the foundation of the journey to reclaiming my own belonging. I also explain what I mean by “deserving a life you love,” and the limiting beliefs that got in the way of living a life I loved.
Here’s the Kevin Ngo quote I mention:
“If you don’t make the time to work on creating the life you want, you’re eventually going to be forced to spend a lot of time dealing with a life you don’t want.”
Invitation for inquiry
If you find yourself feeling unworthy of what you want for yourself and your life, here are a couple questions to help get you unstuck and moving forward toward your desire.
What’s the story or limiting belief you’re telling yourself as to why you’re not worthy of what you want?
And, who does that story belong to?
Taking this a step further, you can ask yourself …
Is this story true?
If your answer is “yes,” ask yourself …
Can I absolutely know this story is true?
Often times, creating doubt about whether or not a false belief is true is enough to create some space for you to consider a different and better possibility for yourself.
If you find your mind is still holding on tightly to the negative story, try turning it around to its opposite. Here’s a simple example:
“I don’t deserve a job I love” would become “I do deserve a job I love.”
And, if you feel inclined, you can write down all the evidence or reasons why that new and better story is true.
The exercise of asking whether a story is true and then turning it around come from Byron Katie’s The Work.
