Part 2 – Here’s how to discover the root of your core not-good-enough belief. Let yourself relax physically. Clear your mind. Breathe. Now relate to your sense of being not good enough. Notice your body. Likely there is tightness in your face and jaw, your breathing is shallow and your world has gotten a little darker.

Now say to yourself, “the way I feel now reminds me of a time when . . .” Let whatever comes to mind, just bubble up. Likely it will be some incident from the first 10 years of your life. Just notice it. Feel the feelings as you sense you, the child, having that experience. 

It may instantly be apparent to you looking back, that you just drew a false conclusion and it wasn’t about you, it was about someone else. Or whatever it was said nothing about real you. You were just collateral damage. You can love that child you with all your heart. That child deserves a chance in life, and all that child’s opportunities are now in your hands.

You may decide on coaching, to help you transcend that deeply held belief. Therapy might be needed or not. Whatever it takes, let it go, let it go, let it go. It isn’t you. Real you is just waiting to come out.
