WHAT ARE THE FEARS BEHIND BEATING OURSELVES UP






Fear of not being enough.-over-attachment to affirmation and culturally defined success (Lack and fixed mindset!) 



Fear of being discovered as defective.-speak about beauty, makeup, shame, etc, i just wasn't taught and wasn't built up in this way (Inadequacy and shame!) 



Fear of not actually being motivated-what if you need the pressure and the inner-bully? lack of self-trust (Laziness!)



Fear of not being able to change.-I engaged in this behavior for years because I felt like I was letting God down, and then I felt overlooked by God because He wasn't healing me from my struggle in the way I wanted or expected; I was afraid I was broken and unable to change or be changed. (Guilt!)
