Thinking you're so wonderful that you can change someone (even if they say they want you to help them change) is a sin of PRIDE! If and when they don't change, RESENTMENT will appear in both you and your beloved. The Lie at the beginning isn't really I can make them change as it's more of a good intention than a lie. The LIE is when we tell ourselves we actually like the person when we do NOT. Take it from me, I met an ex I hadn't interacted with in decades and I LIE LIE LIED to him at the beginning of our reunion saying how attractive I still thought he was (he wasn't) and how wonderful I thought he was (he was an alcoholic and I lied to myself that he wasn't when it was obvious he was. A tough but very beneficial lesson. Great vid and thanks!

Number 5, that pursuit for perfection, makes me think of the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi. There is an undeniable beauty in what we often see as imperfections. What we usually see as flaws, wear, damage, and imperfection could often be viewed as a more rich and storied version of the sterile ideal of perfection. The wear and tear on an old backpack tell stories of countless adventures. A lopsided tree may stand out in striking contrast to the uniform parallel of the surrounding forest. Scars tell stories and display the strength of a survivor. Viewing my flaws through this frame has been very helpful in my own ptsd recovery.

I tell myself and worry if:
Its too late for me
I dont have the willpower
Im not smart enough/talented
I cant change
Im cursed
Ill always be living paycheck to paycheck
Ill always be struggling
I dont have enough to be happy
Im a failure
This video just helped me to realize I do this without knowing it. And I knew about a lot of lies besides I dont have enough to be happy. It gave me a thought I had in the past and a got a vision of me accepting that statement. I now see how imperative it is for me to do affirmations until Im more habitual with those sorts of non limiting thoughts!

1. well if you're stuck living with your parents and it is a hellhole then you literally don't have your own place to be happy yet.
2. oh that's the one i was always told
3. my will is made out of iron
4. it's never too late, most of us started from literally nothing so we should not have problems starting something new from scratch.
5. if something is not perfect then it has room for improvement.
6. yeah sometimes you can literally waste months on someone who just thanks you for the help, turns around and displays all the things you tried to help with only to get more attention.

I always try visualize things in my head before drawing something but when I actually try to draw and it doesn't turn out like the one in my head, I just immediately drop it and tell myself Okay, this is impossible for me. I can't do it. I'll never be good at art. and throw the paper in the trash without even trying again. I just down myself every time I make a mistake that can be fixed with time and commitment to a certain activity. Even though I fully acknowledge that bad habit of mine, I still do it regardless and think that anything that isn't going my way is a failure.

To be true, I was really sad after a break up one time and attempted to be mindful, write down things Im good at. But when your sad with low self esteem it can be difficult to realize anything good about yourself because youre filled with a form of spite and remorse towards yourself. Maybe guilty for they way things went because you know now that you couldve done better, Regrets. That is literally the only thing that fills a sad persons mind but they smile because they see you smiling and seeing someone else smile is the only good news theyve gotten that day.

I have a question and Im hoping someone will answer it. My girlfriend is amazing and I love them so so much. They have very low confidence and self-esteem and are very sensitive. I love every single part of them so matter what but Im trying to help them have more confidence and self-esteem so they dont think theyre worthless. Is that ok or should I stop? I am open to any opinions and I will not be mad.

I hate myself. I feel like I dont love anyone anymore. I seem to be indifferent to my mom, my cat and my family, even though I used to love them more than anything. I dont even know even I even deserve them, since I am an apathetic piece of shit. I really hope it is some kind of mental illness that can be treated, because if this is just who I am, then, again, I hate that I was even born

You become what you believe you are. What if I don't have the willpower anymore, because I've told myself I don't have it for more than a decade. Do addicted people have less willpower than they had before they became addicted? As an addict myself, I try resisting the addiction, but mostly fail. If I had stronger willpower, I would be able to resist right?

As an introvert I have given up trying to talk to girls my age because I have tried to ask them out but in the end I get the cold shoulder. I have have one too many experiences like that and I have decided to stay single for the rest of my life and in my opinion it's not worth my time or money to persue a romantic relationship.

I wish I never had that seizure at the register at work, because it cost me my right-to-work, to drive, and to be normal and happy. Now I am stuck on disability for the rest of my life. Stuck with public transportation, no home, no food, and no one to even talk to. 100% Truth.

Mine would be a law degree. I should have studied in school. Im gifted for law. I love law. And it bugs me because I like to help the under dog. My passion has nothing to do with money. So I try to help people from behind the scenes.

I had a really bad fight with my Girlfriend lately, and everyday I have the feeling that I'm not good enough for her, because I really hurted her feelings. I broke her trust. And I hate myself for that

Trying to do anything is a waste of time.
Yup
I did the whole strength/weakness list thing. In about ten minutes my weaknesses were two pages, the strength column had a title.

OK the cat that sits on the page titled Weaknesses was so cute it melted my heart. I tend to focus on what I don't have and what's wrong with me.

I've never been good enough. I still try anyway and fail anyway. It only goes to show that I was right that I wasn't good enough.
