Growing Up without Positive Thinking
Why are these simple messages of truth and love that can change our lives so absent in culture and the environment that raises us?
Why do we have to discover these positive affirmations by accident and feel like we have found a new gold mine whereas almost all of it is found in ancient messages that still hold true?
I grew up with a lot of love – and I mean, a lot of love from my parents, my relatives, my grandparents, and my childhood friends.
All of these are irreplaceable affections in their own right.
But the love was often overshadowed with a lot of fear, shame and guilt imposed by our guardians and authority. I don’t mean fear, shame and guilt for wrong-doing but for doing anything that was not “the norm” (the norm itself being anything but normal or sensible).
The overflow of affection in our culture cannot be matched, I admit, but it is rarely about teaching a child to be positive and confident in life, or about believing in their own abilities to make smart choices or to follow a dream. It is about making sure they followthe rules, with obedience always being the measuring stick above all things.
If you didn’t grow up being told just how unique and special you are, how capable you are of everything you want to become, how normal it is to have dreams outside of the norm, and how much you matter to this world, this blog post is for you, darling!
If you want to be happy and successful in your own life, a positive, fierce, proud and happy person without shame, learn how to be confident, and love and approve of yourself with these guided affirmation audio tracks. Use them daily and you’ll see results in your moods and happiness levels in 7 days at the latest.
