How many opportunities have you passed on because you didn't think you were good enough? How many times have you told yourself: "you aren't smart, you aren't good enough, you aren't pretty, you should just stop." I know that for me, the negative rhetoric that rings in my head has won numerous times in my life. I have missed out on so many opportunities because I thought those things. Yet the opinions of others are always opposite. Why do we struggle to believe the positive that people say about us? I remember one day I just had reached a breaking point and I prayed a simple prayer. I said "Lord, help me to believe what others say about me." This wasn't the negative things that others were saying about me, but this was the great things that others were saying about me. I was blessed to be surrounded by people who spoke encouraging words over me. People constantly were telling me that I was smart, that I was going to be an amazing doctor, that I was talented, that I could conquer anything. I would always smile and say thanks. But if I am being honest, I never believed them. It took some serious introspection to realize that I could no longer allow past failures and mishaps to write my future story. Negative rhetoric no longer has a place in my life. I had to begin to rewrite what I was thinking about myself. That is NOT easy. I still have moments were I believe this isn't going to work or 'you can't do this'. But at those moments, I immediately tell myself NO and I tell myself I CAN DO IT! I have to encourage myself. After awhile, you will naturally respond with positivity. This positive mindset will begin to manifest a reality in your life that is filled with happiness, contentment, peace, and abundance. Therefore, lets stop blocking ourselves from all that life has to offer. Join me in writing your new reality. Let's manifest greatness together. Remember, you can do that thing that looks too big for you. You can start that business. You can finish school. Your project will be successful. You will have opportunities that no one can stop. As we enter into a new year and new decade we aren't going to be our biggest roadblock any longer, but our biggest cheerleader! We are manifesting greatness from this day forward!

This has always been my biggest Achilles heel and this article is spot on. Rather than struggling to find a place for myself in everyone else's dreams I should just do the thing that feels too big for me. This was much needed!
