Being blamed

Being blamed

I know many of you may be able to relate to my sentiments on different levels. When you are blamed for things that you didn't do, it can hit your self-confidence and make you doubt yourself. The outside voices can feel so real and it can be so hard to hear your own voices and trust yourself. You may even feel like you are a shell of who you are and you may want to hide because you don't know how to show up. It can be the hardest thing for you to stand up and try again. You doubt yourself in everything that you say and/or do and you may even lower your standards to play it safe. All you want is the external validation to prove that you are enough.

Being blamed for things that you didn't do can feel so hard. Separating the blame and knowing your truth takes work and courage.

Even if you never get the external validation that you hope to receive, you have to find the strength and courage to show up and do what you can. It is hard to be the scapegoat for other people's problems and you have to remind yourself that you are more than that. You are enough.

Thanks Patrick for the reminders and for showing up. You may think that you're bothering people by asking them for help, the truth is that those who want to show up for you will do it for you because they want to and not because you are a bother. So working on the limiting beliefs are so key for personal development.
