After you have chose what you want, pictured it, and believed it can happen, the next step is obtaining it – fully and wholeheartedly.

This whole step may sound simple at the start (and to some, it may be really simple), but in reality, people occasionally have a hard time getting what they want.  Why? Because they feel they do not deserve it.

Feeling unworthy of of good things usually stems from a lack of self-esteem which may be followed back to childhood. Dysfunctional families, lack of support from teachers or protectors and lack of acceptance from peers are basic culprits of inadequate self-esteem.

The peril of such negative childhood experiences is that children might carry their hurt up to their grownup life. The trauma may have a negative bear on on their thinking patterns and relationships, among others. Because of feelings of low self-worth brought about by the trauma, they may consciously or unconsciously believe that they do not deserve the good things that can come to them.  

Therefore if you honestly cannot envision yourself living with the best in life, you need to really ask yourself – why do I feel I do not deserve this thing I want? If your answer is along the lines of “I’m not worthy enough” or “These things simply cannot happen to people like me,” then you may have to review your self-image.

The good news is, even years of damaging thinking patterns can be reversed through positive thinking and daily affirmations. After you identify your chronic damaging views about yourself, you can substitute them with positive ones. And while negative thoughts may still enter your mind from time to time, it may encourage you to know that a positive thought is far more powerful than a negative one.

You can start by daily affirmations like “I am a unique, wonderful human being,”  “I deserve the finest in life,” or whatever you feel will make you appreciate yourself more.
