Chapter 5 - The Real Truth

Here's my limiting beliefs switched to the

THE TRUTH

1. I may trip people up if I express myself vulnerably but that doesn't imply that there's anything wrong with my authentic self. In fact, there is NOTHING wrong with me. All I can be is me, and I can't control how people respond to my vulnerability.

2. I am ALREADY worthy of love and happiness and don't have to prove it to anyone. In fact, I am already loved by God.

3. I don't need permission to be HAPPY and have fun. I may have responsibilities I need to take care of but I can always make room for fun.

4. I CAN HEAL from my past hurts.

5. I CAN become my ideal self, despite obstacles because I can overcome every obstacle I encounter through perseverance, learning, and growth.

6. I CAN HANDLE CHANGE as it allows me to grow and become a better person.

7. I AM competent and have earned my degrees and roles because of my knowledge and experience.

8. I CAN prioritize my own NEEDS while also supporting those around me.

9. I can expect worse-case scenarios but I can also HOPE FOR THE BEST in every situation.

10. I may have failed in the past but that doesn't mean I won't be able to SUCCEED in the future.

11. Bad things may happen to me, whether or not it's my fault, but that doesn't make me a failure. I can still LEARN from my mistakes and become better.

12. I don't have to be successful right now. Being successful DOES NOT define my worth.

13. Relationships may have their ups and downs but overall intimacy provides opportunities for learning, growth, and a deeper understanding.

14. I CAN earn a living by doing work that aligns with my passions, values, and skills. I may have to do tasks I don't like sometimes, but I can ALWAYS do what I love and find a way to make money from it.

15. I can trust myself to make decisions about what truly matters to me if I follow my INTUITION.

16. I can ALWAYS expand my abilities and intelligence.

17. It's ok to have support when handling issues. I NEVER have to handle things on my own.

18. Conflict is NORMAL and can be dealt with in a healthy way. Avoiding conflict makes things worse in the long run.

19. I may initiate plans with friends and they may reject me, but that DOESN'T mean that they don't like me or that I'm unwanted. And even if I am unwanted, that doesn't imply anything about who I am as a person.

20. I am QUALIFIED and CAPABLE enough to advance in my career.

21. Money comes to me ALL THE TIME.

22. I don't have to take constructive criticism PERSONALLY.

The truth is, I am the only me that will ever be. I am very special and unique and God took His time to craft me. I need to keep reminding myself of the truth to rewire my brain. It won't be surprising if I encounter things that would normally cause me to reinsert my negative limiting beliefs into myself. I have to be aware of when my ego is in control and remind myself of these truths to calm myself down and bring me back to reality.
