Wow, there's some great stuff in this thread (thanks, Angela, TK, and you other Magnificent Manifesters) and I wanna join the party!
Wax Frog, I'm not sure what you mean exactly by "face" the list and "inner work" is, in my opinion, part of balanced personal development, but it doesn't have to be hard. I love when Abraham says "a belief is a thought you keep thinking." It's no more complicated than that. So, choose to think a different thought. When the evil "I'm not ________ enough" thought comes around, you can ignore it (if you like). Sometimes, I like to thank it for sharing, personally, before ignoring it. Or just recognise it, "Oh, ya, that's that old programming. I'm going to think some different about myself from now on." Or my favorite mantra (comes from Glinda in
The Wizard of Oz, when the Wicked Witch of the West threatens Dorothy for the first time in Munchkinland):
"Oooohoohoo....Rubbish! You have no power here. Begone! Before someone drops a house on
you"
(Works in so many situations.
)
You can do more formalized processes as gentle as TAT and EFT or as intensive as deep-exploration, psychotherapy, if you like as well. Your choice!
