Your Block with Receiving is Because You Think You Don't Deserve Good Things

I used to nod my head religiously when someone would talk about self-care, but I low-key thought it was unnecessary.⁣

When my coaches said, “You deserve to take a break”, I would agree but be thinking in the back of my mind “Pfft, I don’t have time for that.”⁣

When something went wrong in my business or someone said no, I’d latch onto my negative thoughts and throw myself a pity party, saying shit like “Why can’t it happen for 𝘮𝘦?!?”⁣

It was because I believed I wasn’t worthy of receiving.⁣

I have always rejected compliments.⁣
If someone did something for me, I had the immediate urge to repay them.⁣
I couldn’t take credit for my work or be praised for it (𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘤 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘺𝘯𝘥𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘦).⁣

I was also conditioned to believe that women that did things for themselves were selfish - so any type of self-care or self-indulgence I participated in was paired with a thick layer of guilt, meaning I could never enjoy anything.⁣

This all came from a place of believing I wasn’t worthy of receiving any kind of good - whether it be compassion, grace, generosity, praise, abundance - and this all carried into receiving from my business.⁣

𝗦𝗼 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸, 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁?⁣

Believing that you’re worthy of good things. Of rest. Of self-care. Of self-indulgence. Of anything you damn well desire.⁣

And begin to disprove anything that says otherwise.⁣
