Default Steve, I would love if you could do this!

When you wrote your latest changing your vibration article, it was really powerful for me. Since that, Many emotional blocks disolved for me, I was exercising alot more, was able to keep my room tidy and organised, was making more money than usual, I won $300, my dad bought me a $4000 internet business course, since all these things seemed to happen within the energy after I visualized with the new knowlege and techniques I learned, I assume my results are caused my the visualization I did, the law of attraction, or more realistically, my beliefs, and what I was conditioning myself to feel is comfortable for me and normal for me.

I'd Love it if you could give some more powerful "you attract what you are vibrating" material just like the last one you wrote. Because when I read it, it STRENGTHENS my belief, which in turn strengthens my result. I'm sure others would like this too! Imagine if we had a new powerful article or video or audio each day just like that last vibrations article. I understand it is unrealistic because you'd have to work your butt off to create so much for people every day. I just wish there was new, POWERFUL law of attraction content every day, the really deep and most helpful stuff. The last vibration article steve wrote was the BEST law of attraction material I have ever read I think.
Thats why it helped me so much...so just, would like to be more brainwashed with those ideas since they were so helpful!! Even if just the wording from that article was changed slightly, and re-done, or made as an audio, just so the REPETITION of the same ideas, but its a bit different each time to make it interesting so my brain will take it in.

Hope you understand what I mean!!

Emily

Perhaps I could create a blog doing it myself? But it IS powerful hearing it from someone else, someone who is Confident in what they are saying

You're right. I could for example write some powerful statements or something that really lift up my confidence or really motivate me in an area like visualizing what i want and changing my mindset and read it a few times a day or something. I'm sure steve wouldn't mind if I used some snippets of his blog that I felt really affected me

Thanks

I like the quotes on your webpage, Ruby. Nice choices. It left wondering.. why is it that we have so much trouble just believing in ourselves sometimes?

I was also expecting an IM article from him.

But he wrote about religion. This is the same article he wrote some time back.

Thanks! I don't know, some people don't have the issue.

Some may somehow have received messages as they were growing up that they are a wrong, bad person etc, perhaps unintentional, but maybe from an unstable parent. Then, since this is a foundational belief and all they have learned about themself from other people, they may keep attracting situations that confirm their belief until they start to question that belief that they are an inferior person.

Ofcourse though, if they have believed they really are an inferior wrong person for many years, developing self belief may take effort & they may have setbacks as you say such as having trouble just believing in ourself somtimes. But anything is possible and there Are solutions!

Invalidation is a big cause

An Invalidating Environment

In this sense, to invalidate means to attack or question the foundation or reality of a person’s feelings. This can be done through denying, ridiculing, ignoring, or judging another’s feelings. Regardless of the means, the effect is clear: the person feelings are “wrong.”

An environment perceived as invalidating generally means that the child grows up feeling that his emotional responses are not correct or considered in the regular course of things. Over time, this can result in confusion and a general distrust of a person’s own emotions.

An invalidating environment is not the same thing as an abusive environment, although abusive relationships are certainly invalidating. Invalidation can be quite subtle and may reflect a general way of interacting.

For example, when I cried when I was little, my mother didn't know how to handle it when I was upset and instead of the expected reaction of empathy, understanding, problem solving and comfort, she would get angry at me, go hysterical, order me around, ignore my crying, and turn the radio up loud etc. If I tried to tell her she was hurting my feelings she would react defensively "well! what about my feelings!" and also hysterically and irrationally making exuses and saying things that didn't even make sense. Also my brother would call me a spoiled little ♥♥♥♥♥ and I was called a naughty girl a lot, even though I was a good girl compared to most only sad and with developing low self-esteem and anxiety. it was like I couldn't be happy or sad, My mother would not let us be relaxed or happy, she would nag or order us around if we started to enjoy something like playing or watching TV. My mum also has run thousands of guilt trips on me, she loves to say "I've been cleaning all bloody day" and would say nasty hurtful things to me for not having a job even though she contributed to such anxiety and depression and low self esteem that I couldn't have a job

Also, Sexual Abuse, Verbal Abuse, and Emotional Abuse can lead someone to feel they are wrong, inferior, and ofcourse these beliefs cause self-doubt.

I have a friend who was sexually abused I think it might be partly a reason she is a lesbian, she also was treated in a similar way to me as a child, was not allowed to be happy or sad, was punished for being both happy and sad. So she also got an anxiety disorder & damaged self belief

Ruby, that's terrible, and I'm sorry to hear that! You're really brave to be so open and take initiative to provide a resource for others. It takes a lot of strength to take action .. kudos, really!

I, too, think our parents affect our childhood more than they think, even if not intentional. My parents tried to isolate me from many other children growing up, and I think it left me socially confused for a good while.
