ENOUGHNESS- what does it mean? how do we move past & work with feelings of never being good enough?

Most people have subscribed to the belief that they’ll never be “enough” but have yet to explore what it means

I’ll share part of the process I’d use in a general sense (it can depend on the person, their background, other things I already know from the client etc) and I’ll share 3 journal prompts to support your reflection further

1) Determine where the belief/ need to be good enough is coming from. Some people want to be a good enough mom, competitor, client, friend, husband, entrepreneur… is the need then coming from acknowledgment of those who experience them in that role or is it coming from something they’ll recognize within themselves?

2) Shifting perspective from outcome orientation to process orientation (I did a full workshop for my members & clients on this, it’s available to all on-demand mindset coaching platform members— www.celestial.fit/ondemand @celestial_fit )

3) Identify if the comparison is occurring between who you are now & who you’ve been, who you think you should be, or who you truly aspire to be

4) Questions for Reflection:

4a. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE GOOD ENOUGH? - expand on every aspect where you’re feeling like you’re not enough

4b. WHAT EVIDENCE DO YOU HAVE THAT YOU ARE NOT ENOUGH? —usually this is an emotional question. It can make you realize it’s not that you’re not good enough it’s that you seek to be better in some ways & are being hypercritical of where you’re at now that you’re stuck or it really brings up some areas where you’re letting yourself down

4c. HOW ARE YOU ENOUGH NOW? — this can enlighten us to where we don’t give ourselves credit & help you find ways to use your strengths for improvement

4d. WHAT EXPECTATIONS, COMMITMENTS, & STANDARDS DO YOU HOLD YOURSELF TO THAT ARE UNFAIR, UNREALISTIC, & CONTRIBUTING TO A FAILURE MENTALITY? HOW COULD THEY BE TRANSFORMED TO BRING UP CONFIDENCE & EFFICACY?— see where you’re setting yourself up for failure or reinforcement of the belief that you are not good enough so it can be retooled to your benefit
