Guest guest Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 Did Anyone Ever Tell You.. Did anyone ever tell you..That everything you believe is wrong with you,Is actually what other people told you - And you still believe it?Did Anyone Ever Tell You..That the fastest way to transform How you feel about yourself,Is by ceasing all negative self talk, Catching it when it happens, andReplacing that with factual truthsBased on your observable actions? I used to despise myself.I know what it feels like to believeThe lies I was told growing up.And I was able to transform it allBy doing WHAT I PREFER, WHEN I Prefer, And HOW I Prefer (as long as it's honest),Combined with giving myself real, positiveSelf talk in place of the negative lies. There is NOTHING WRONG with you!The only thing that's "wrong" is Negative thoughts that you still believe about you. Did Anyone Ever Tell You..When you turn your thoughts around,You simultaneously transform how you view yourself? It's true! And guess what happens next..You actually start to LOVE yourselfJust for being who you are inside. It's time you really value yourselfBy finding everything that's RIGHT with you! © Copyright 2007 Barbara Rose, Ph.D. http://www.borntoinspire.com Barbara Rose, Ph.D. and The Rose Group email: news@... web: http://www.borntoinspire.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 ty for this post! I know this to be true but practicing it is so hard sometimes esp when I have been negative towards myself for so many years. Isn't it odd that some of us would rather hurt ourselves a thousand times over than hurt one single soul? I have a hard time dealing with the fact that I am going to be human, fallible and hurt those I love. I honestly can't recall the last time I treated my inner self kindly it must have been more than 35 years ago. Oh I am good at pampering myself outwardly and sometimes it helps. Doesn't the negativity seem to start with our parents and how can we erase that recording because they really leave imprints almost like dna codes that we are not aware of. For instance when I was a child I liked to bite for some reason. I had too much energy for my age and I guess that was my way of getting some of it out. I liked to bite my father particularly because he taught me at a young age that being a prankster meant love. Well one day I bit him a tad too hard and he decided the way I was going to learn to not do that again was to bite me back. I don't think he knew the strength of his bite. All I remember was a feeling of shock, like lightening going through me. Not so much the pain but the shock of suddenly and instantly knowing this God I trusted with my life could and did hurt me. I immediately went into a seizure, the first of many until the age of fifteen. My mother took me to a professional and he told her that the shock had set a brain wave pattern that any time I got hurt, hitting my funny bone, getting over excited or feeling pain in any way I would have a seizure. These are things that a person cannot erase themselves but I often wonder how much of that still plays out subconsciously in my mind and if it is a key link to the consistant problems I have had with myself and men in my life. Of course that is not the only abuse I endured via him, nonetheless I'm making a reference to how our own brains can take over for us. I've done so much soul searching and even when I think I have exhausted every negative emotion the pain still remains hidden like a highly skilled chameleon. Sorry I got off on the wrong track your post just made me think and writing helps me. Infact you all write so much that helps, I wish I could keep up with all the postings lol. thank you!!!
