Focus on the bright side of life and expect positive results.
You feel you don’t deserve it.
If you have doubts about your worthiness when it comes to career or relationships, you need to take a long look into your internal mirror.
What negative messages are you sending to yourself?
Why do you believe that you are not good enough?
Asking yourself these questions can help you develop positive alternative thoughts.
You question your ability.
You may be able to ask for what you want, and feel you deserve it, but still wonder if you are up to the task. Maybe you think you don’t have the talent or the leadership ability to get the job done.
Look, most people learn on the fly. You have to just dive in and expect to make a few mistakes along the way. You will get the hang of whatever it is, soon enough.
You feel that you don’t have the time to take on anything more.
Everyone I know who has successfully started their own business began working on it in their spare time.
For them and many others, evenings and weekends are no longer spent in front of the television.
You can spend your extra time building your dream or dating your dream partner. Anything you want to achieve is worth the extra work.
You tell yourself that there’s someone who is better than you.
There will always be people who are better looking, or who have more money, higher degrees, greater experience, or more magnetic personalities. But they aren’t the same as you.

Thank you ….You bring your own set of talents, your personal vision, and your values to any situation or relationship with which you’re involved. Trust that what’s inside you is as good as it gets. Now go for it.
You’re trying to keep a low profile.
You may think that you shouldn’t stand out, because you’re afraid you might get hurt.
Yes, successful people can become targets for others who are angry, misguided, or feel somehow inferior.
But believing that if you’re successful, harm will come your way is a myth that was started by people too scared to reach for their dreams.
Do you want to add a word or two?
Another limitation is that chasing dreams can be expensive.
Money is the most common limitation when it comes to chasing dreams.
You may need to wait for some time in order to save money, or you may have things you are willing to sell in pursuit of your goals.
Other limitations may include job security, having time, or lack of skills or training.
Coaching professionals from around the world, I have a window into people’s deepest fears, anxieties and insecurities.
For so many, they stay stuck in an endless cycle of thinking they’re not “good” or smart, talented, young, experienced, educated, worthy, etc. enough to achieve what they long to.
Their confidence has been rocked and now they are so entrenched in believing they don’t deserve to achieve their dreams that they fulfill their own prophecy of inadequacy.
They perpetuate their negative reality by sabotaging their own growth and success, or failing to do the work to move beyond this negative state.
Your Comments……
Stop wondering if you’re good or worthy enough. Just stop.
If you have a dream, then you’re meant to pursue it in some way, to become more of who you already are.
You are worthy, but you have to believe that and start being the person you want to be.
Commit to brave action every day that propels them forward towards your highest visions, and they keep going and learning.
Life goes fast and does not wait for anyone. As I grow older and lose more friends every year, the brevity of life is constantly before me.
The reality of our mortality should drive all of us to live our lives to the fullest every day.
Too often, we let our mental health conditions stop us from going after our dreams. We tell ourselves that we’re not good enough or that we’ll never be able to achieve them. We allow ourselves to believe that mental illness makes a full life impossible.
This is simply not true.
I don’t know what it is you dream of doing — quitting your full-time job, serving overseas, starting your own business, working for a particular non-profit, having a family, getting married, or something else entirely.
Dreams vary from person to person, but as I’ve talked to hundreds of people about their live and their dreams, I’ve found things doesn’t change.
We all have the same excuses.
It’s true. No matter the age, life stage, circumstances or practical realities of each individual I talk to.
