A very long time ago, early in my professional career, I stumbled over someone’s foot in a meeting. I apologized, saying, “I’m sorry, I’m so clumsy.” Almost immediately an older man said, “Who told you that you were clumsy?”
It was a challenge that led me to realize that both my parents had referred to me as a clumsy child. I believed them.
Back then I was deeply involved in learning Transactional Analysis (TA), a powerful method for understanding, predicting and changing human behavior. It was and is a very useful set of tools and I have written about it extensively in some of the books you will find on my website, http://www.LaurieWeiss.com . I used TA to eventually release that limiting belief.
We have all experienced having someone else describe us in some way and we have created beliefs that inhibit our growth and leave us feeling inadequate or broken in some way.
You are not stuck with those beliefs for the rest of your life. It used to be a long, challenging and often painful process to drop limiting beliefs. It is much easier now.
The three sentences of the basic Logosynthesis® procedure (a much newer process than TA), that I teach you to use in this book, make it simple. Once you have identified the limiting belief, you use it with those sentences. The belief often dissolves right there. Sometimes it’s a bit more complicated.
The book leads you through the process. Read it now.
This post is a comment I wrote about a passage on Page 61 revised edition, Page 67 original of Letting It Go: Relieve Anxiety and Toxic Stress in Just a Few Minutes Using Only Words (Rapid Relief with Logosynthesis®). You can see the passage in the book. You can also see the excerpt here. This link will take you to Bublish.com, where I regularly publish comments on parts of this book. This is a site where authors share of their work. You can subscribe to my musings, there, as well as to the musings of many other authors. It’s a great place to learn about new books and I recommend that you visit.
