Negative childhood experiences and have a lasting effect.
If you were frequently criticized by your parents, caregivers or others, you are likely to lose your sense of self-worth and eventually feel like you are “invisible”.
You see negative events as ‘your own fault’ and whenever you experience a serious setback, your perception of yourself changes to feeling worthless. Your sense of worthlessness and your constant negative thinking creates distress which makes it difficult to manage daily tasks.
You cannot live a happy and fulfilling life when your belief systems are programmed to negative thinking.
You are only as strong as the skill set that you have. You need a new, upgraded skill set!
