Not Good Enough

Do you present a confident face to the world, while in your heart of hearts you feel like you’re not really good enough? Maybe that means not good enough at your job, maybe it means not a good enough mother or wife, maybe it just means not a good enough person. Whatever your feelings of inadequacy relate to, know that EFT can help you change how you feel about yourself, so that the confident face you present to the world becomes your true face.

Often there are childhood issues related to not feeling that you’re good enough. If you grew up in a dysfunctional or abusive family, or had parents that criticized more than they praised, it’s hard to feel that you’re a good person. If the people who love you the most are telling you, by word or deed, that you don’t measure up, you take that to heart. You internalize that message, and it becomes a part of who you are, and how you relate to others.

If you are in a work or family situation and are criticized, or even questioned about something you’ve said or done, you still have that hyper-critical parent whispering in your ear, “They’re saying that because you didn’t do a good enough job!”. It’s easy to slip into being defensive or even confrontational if you feel that you are being personally attacked, and that whisper in your ear is telling you that is exactly what’s happening.

Working with EFT can help you to change the way that you react in situations such as this. EFT can restore your confidence, and allow you to feel good about yourself and what you’re doing. EFT can turn that not good enough feeling into “I’m darn sure good enough!”, and in the process can make your life easier and more pleasant.

You’ll also find that as your behaviors change, those around you change in the way that they interact with you. By you changing your dance steps in this dance of relationships, you force them to change theirs. As your confidence grows, others around you will feel that change, and will react to it in a positive way. If the energy emanating from you is carrying the message, “I’m a confident and competent person and do a good job”, others will know, and believe.

All those wonderful results for the small amount of time you put into learning EFT, and using it on a daily basis. EFT can literally change your life. Find out about it. Learn it. Use it. You will be so happy that you did.
