As we develop physically and mentally, each new experience changes us, either in a positive or negative way. Negative situations, such as abuse, neglect, overt or passive aggressive behavior, and emotional or physical trauma, create undesirable behaviors. Abusive situations damage personal growth and the effects largely determine how we interact with the world.
Negative beliefs lead to feelings of lack of self worth, low confidence, low self-esteem, tension, anger and engrained dissatisfaction. We enter into a series of co-dependent relationships that are dissatisfying, arduous, unpleasant and doomed to failure. They serve to deepen our own self-loathing and feelings of inadequacy.
Who we have learned to be is no longer who we truly are.
This book is an innovative combination of daily reader and gratitude journal that encourages you to rediscovery who you really are, rather than who you learned to be. It is meant to be written in, not merely read.
