Your Life Story Depresses You? Change It

Here are some ways to begin to dump the old stories and replace them with new ones.

1. Recognize when you’re telling them and press your mental pause button. Stop giving it fuel.

2. Write down the fact, as I’ve done above, then the story you’re presently telling. Now write a more positive interpretation of it. What good has come out of it? What have you learned? How would it feel if you dropped the old story and told a new one? Explore this on paper and see what it brings up.

Self-limiting beliefs often stem from stories you’re clinging onto that aren’t serving you. They hold you back from true happiness and success.
