Take Control - Now
Do you have a voice that tells you that you’re not good enough?  You don’t
deserve success.  You’ll never amount to anything?
Perhaps its always been there.
Maybe you can even identify the source of this voice?
A parent whom you could never please.  Or a teacher who told you that
you’re just not very smart?
And no matter what you do… you always feel incomplete, inadequate and
unworthy.
I know how you feel.
I’ve been there.
It was my life.  All day, every day.
No escape… unless you count drinking – but the voices were always twice as
loud the next day.
However, things changed for me when I discovered hypnotherapy… and not
JUST because of the hypnosis.
The experience of hypnosis is amazing and I’d recommend it to almost
anyone…
But there are some very powerful things you can do ON YOUR OWN to break
out of a negative mindset.

#1 Be more specific
What is that voice actually saying?  Don’t just accept it, challenge it.
Like this:
I’m not good enough, for what?
Specifically?
Not good enough at tennis to be in Wimbledon this year?  Maybe so.
But not good enough in general?  Not good enough to be loved by someone
decent?  Not good enough to confidently claim my future?
No way!
Or like this:
I’m stupid, am I?  According to what standard?  Who decides?  There’s surely
plenty of people thicker than I am.
