enough

60%. Almost 2 out of every 3 women has this thought run through her head every single day:

 

“I am not _________ enough.”

 

Fill in your own blank, chances are you do this too. I’m not smart enough. I’m not skinny enough. I’m. Not. Enough.

 

That has to end! Your thoughts become your reality, so why not build yourself up? It is doing you absolutely no good to talk down to yourself.

 

That is step one, stopping the negative self-talk. And part of step one is catching yourself when you say those things. When you catch yourself, correct it right away.

 

If it is such a part of your daily routine that you can’t stop saying these negative things, try this. When you say “I am not ______ enough.” Just start adding “Yet” on the end of that sentence.

 

Step two is your homework. One of the best ways to develop confidence in yourself is to accomplish something you weren’t sure you could do. An unexpected benefit people get from our boot camps is a big confidence boost. They weren’t sure they could make it four weeks, so when they do it is a big deal and something to be celebrated.

 

What is something you want to do, but you’re not sure you can do it? This is not something you have to do tomorrow. Maybe it is complete your first 5K, get your Master’s degree, or start your own business.

 

With those goals it is not going to happen overnight. You need to put the time, money, and effort into making it happen. But think about how awesome you would feel when you made it happen!

 

Why not you? I guarantee you have overcome some hardships and obstacles you weren’t sure you could overcome. Why not you and why not start right now?

 

You are enough.
