Many concepts to do the work on... but, ok, let's go with this one:

> People skills aren't worth more money than mine.

>

> Is it true? yes

.... which people? Which skills? When? To whom? Aren't you thinking of someone

very specific, asking a specific amount for a specific service? Be as specific

as possible, it makes it much easier for you. And you deserve easy.

> Absolutely? No

>

ok...

So: you NEED " their " services. Is that true? When I go where I think you come

from, I feel abused. You did have a choice, didn't you?

Who ARE you, in the moment you believe the thought? How do you treat " the

people " ? How do you treat others? How do you treat yourself? Where do you feel

the pain? What is the situation where the thought comes up? The moment you open

the letter with the bill? Whenever you see " them " ? The next time you " need "

their services?

> Who would you be without the thought? I gladly pay them and feel good about

being able to share my money with others who are helping me.

Well, maybe you would not pay them. Maybe you might ask them how much they will

charge, before you request their services? Maybe you would get into a position

where you can decide, before you get the bill. Or you could tell them upfront

how much you can afford.

Who would you be, if you could never again believe, that ANYONEs skills were not

worth more money than yours? How would you request their services? Who were you,

if EVERYONE asked you for more money that what you are charging?

Well, those are reasons why they might need more money. How do you define

" worth " ?

I noticed you did not use your thinking in the turnarounds:

my skills are not worth more money than...

my thinking isn't worth more...

Here is just my main reaction when I read your Work.

I don't want to perform brain surgery on myself or my loved ones. I also do not

want to go to medical school and put in the incredible amount of time or spend

the money.

Therefore, I am grateful that there are other people willing to put in the time,

effort and money. Most of them end u p sleep deprived and divorced at some

point.

So, I am happy to pay others who have the expertise that I lack and don't want

to put in the effort to acquire. This holds true for attornies, accountants,

stock brokers etc. I turn to my loved ones for compassion and caring. That's not

why I go to various experts.

And, yes, their skills are worth more than mine and I'm happy to pay them.

People shouldn't overcharge for services

1. Who angers, confuses, saddens, or disappoints you, and why? What is it

about them that you don't like? I am angry at people (doctors, lawyers etc.) who

think that their skills are worth more money than mine. I don't like that they

think they are better or what they do is more important than someone else. I

think they are being unfair, have no compassion and are arrogant.

2. How do you want them to change? What do you want them to do? I want people

to see everyone else as their equals. I want them to show compassion and see

that everyone has a gift to share. I want them to stop thinking that they are

better than me or more important than me.

3. What is it that they should or shouldn't do, be, think, or feel? What

advice do you offer? I want them to charge more affordable prices for their

services. I want them to care about others more. I want them to know that others

are as important as they are.

4. What do they need to do in order for you to be happy? I need them to be

compassionate. I need them to not overcharge me for their services. I need them

to see that I have worth even though I don't have their same skills or

education.

5. What do you think of them? I think these people are greedy, arrogant,

uncaring and self-centered.

6. What is it that you don't want to experience with that person again?

I don't ever want to be overcharged or looked down to as less than another.

People skills aren't worth more money than mine.

Is it true? yes

Absolutely? No

React w/thought? I get angry, frustrated, I feel enraged that these people

know we need their services so they can overcharge us and take advantage of us.

Who would you be without the thought? I gladly pay them and feel good about

being able to share my money with others who are helping me.

Original statement: People skills aren't worth more money than mine.

Turn to opposite: People skills are worth more money than mine. True

1. They do have to pay for their schooling which took longer and cost more

than mine.

2. They do take more of a risk since they can be sued for malpractice or

disbarred.

3. They do have to cover their overhead.

Turn to self. My skills are worth more money to me. truer

1. I do find self-worth in the skills that I have.

2. I see that it's my ego wanting self-identification with worthiness.

3. I have been using my skills as a way to one up myself and my ego wants to

feels superior.

To other.

My skills are worth more money than others. True

1. I have put a lot of effort in to learning to do this efficient.

2. I went to school and had to spend the money and time to learn.

3. I work hard be of the most value to my employer/customer.

I look forward to being overcharged and look down upon. ( I really do because

now I think I would just laugh at myself for the foolishness of it)
