I Feel Like I Am Never Good Enough
From Louise Hay "You can heal your life" Pg 6
[b]The Innermost Belief For Everyone I Have Worked with Is Always "I'm Not Good Enough!"[/b]
We often add to that, "And I don't do enough" or "I don't deserve". Does this sound like you? Often saying or implying or feeling that you "are not good enough"? [u][c=#BF0000]But for whom? And according to whose standards? [/c][/u]
If this belief is very strong in you, then how can you possibly have created a loving, joyous, prosperous, healthy life? Somehow your main subconscious belief would always be contradicting it. Somehow you would never quite get it together, for something would always be going wrong somewhere.
--------------------
I had to ask myself this also but I didn't consciously think I had this problem, That I'm not good enough. But for me, it manifests differently and I was a victim of that thinking... I am taking a long hard look at my patterns, hoping to identify the cause, the original wound cause healing my life is the only thing that can save me.
I've self-medicated for too long and it's getting harder and harder to ignore the pain so I must go within to change outward. No more band-aids, no more hiding, no more pretending... My wounds must heal if I have any shot at a loving, joyous, prosperous, healthy life!
I've read a ton of books and watched a ton of video programs, listening to tons of audio programs, listened to lectures and watched documentaries from experts and spiritual healers (all pointing me in the same direction)... and they were all really, really good and I searched for years to find that magic healing bullet, but it doesn't exist (at least not that I can find but I also never attended a retreat, I ain't got 2+ grand :)) so ummmm.... that was beyond my reach. What I did find was some answers and some techniques and processes but no cure.
The cure is within. The cure is not out there somewhere. I've been avoiding the work for a long time! It's hard, unpleasant, confusing, but necessary. For everyone it may look different. But what I've found is it starts with meditation and mindfulness. To do it effectively, you must let down your guard and feel your emotions, watch your thoughts, that inner dialogue that runs in your head and how you feel it in your body, not fighting it or judging it.
There are tons of techniques and programs you can use but nothing works unless you go inward. I can give you a list of things, authors, etc I found helpful but unless you're willing to do the work, it's all just a distraction. You're the answer. You always were!
Good Luck guys!
