“The ego comes from the mind. It’s function is to create and maintain a sense of identity. It is the ego speaking when our inner critic wants us to be better.” -Uplife
Where do you find your worth?
In what do you give credit for your identity?
What are you chasing to prove that you are “good enough?”
This will lead you to your ego.
Is it in clothes, how you look, your car, your grades in school, promotions at work, money?
What is it?
We all have something we work really hard to have or do so that we can prove that we are good enough or worth something.
I wish I didn’t!
I wish you didn’t either.
Because,
I AM good enough as I am.
I am good enough with a messy house.
I am good enough with a house that isn’t updated.
I am good enough with out the latest fads.
I am good enough even if I get impatient with my kids.
I am good enough even if I didn’t finish my college degree.
And so on….
And you are also good enough as you are!
I mean, the time and effort and thought that I put into the above things to prove that I am good enough, is enough to send me over… I guess thats where I stress.
If I can connect more with my spirit, my heart, then I would be more content with who I am. “It’s the person who lives according to their values, isn’t afraid to make mistakes, and always gets up when they fall.”
Think about it. How much do you stress over that thing that you are chasing to prove that you are “good enough?” What happens if you don’t achieve this thing that you are chasing?
The stress that you experience to prove your worth is proof enough that you and I are chasing the wrong thing.
You are good enough NOW!
