Have you ever had fear just show up unexpectedly and paralyze you? There was always a little voice in my head that said I wasn’t good enough and no one valued what I had to say. Whenever I tried something new, it would start to creep in and take over. Then, I would quit and it would validate all of the fears that I had.
I quit!!
I took a hard look at what I was doing, and the patterns I was following and realized that there are so many people who are just like me and really do want to hear what I have to say. I have learned a lot about so many things, and I have a gift that can be shared with others.
I started telling myself the truth. I had to really look at what those closest to me were saying and change my thoughts to match theirs. I was always getting compliments and thanks, as I would help others, but in the past I would downplay it so it didn’t matter.
I am enough!
I began to be aware of what my thoughts and my inner voice was saying. When I caught myself saying negative things, I turned it around and chose to say something positive instead.
Not just positive, but true!!
I started to only tell myself the positive truths that were always there, but I didn’t see before. I wrote them on my bathroom mirror so I could say them to my face every time I went in that room. I recorded my truths on a voice recorder app. I listen to it everyday on my way to work.
As my mindset started to shift, I started looking inside to find what that fear was really all about.
Not being good enough!
Letting someone else down.
Settling.
Failure!
And those are all things that I choose to leave behind. I am changing them to;
I am enough!
I live my best and authentic life!
I choose my success!
I use my tools everyday to focus on the now and the truth. I am worthy of everything that I desire. As I go through each day I am turning my fear into strength. I know that I can do it all. I am capable of having it all and when I focus on the positive, I am finding that I attract more positive into my life.
Focus on the good and good will flow to you.
Your energy will flow and show what you focus on. I choose to focus on success, love and courage!!
