KC: Even though I’m afraid they’ll judge me again I acknowledge this fear and love and accept myself anyway
KC: Even though they might judge and criticize me I choose to start letting some of the fear go
KC: Even though in the past they judged me and criticized me I’m open to realizing I survived and to draw on that strength
EB: No I don’t
SE: Yes I do
UE: I’m not opening myself up to that again
UN: I can’t handle that
CH: It’s better not to even try
CB: This fear---I just can’t
UA: But I succeeded in other areas
TH: Maybe I can this time
EB: No way
SE: But it sure would be nice to not live in fear
UE: I am pretty strong in a lot of ways
UN: Look at what I’ve survived
CH: Look at the things I did achieve
CB: Hey, maybe I’m stronger than I thought
UA: Maybe I’m more confident than I think
TH: I’m confident in me
EB: Maybe it’s more of an inside job
SE: Maybe I’m more confident in myself than I thought
UE: Maybe I can draw on this inner confidence
UN: Maybe I can see their judgments and criticisms for what they are
CH: That the only way they can feel superior is by putting me down
CB: It might even be unconscious on their part
UA: I don’t want to be like “them”
TH: Maybe I can let SOME of this fear go
Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth- ahhhh
CB: Choosing to see it differently --- that my sense of confidence is within
me---I’m so proud of myself---I never gave up on me---that’s a darn good
start
When the doubt starts creeping in tap on the UE and say: “I choose to
acknowledge my strengths and realize all the areas I am confident in---YES!”
