The Power of the Stories We Tell Ourselves
Our minds often weave narratives that shape our perceptions and beliefs. These stories can limit us and impact our relationships. For example, a friend believed she performed poorly in a job interview and convinced herself she wasn't good enough for the position. However, she got the job and received glowing feedback. Our past experiences and societal influences can influence our self-worth and lead to unhelpful stories. Challenging these stories, seeking different perspectives, and practicing mindfulness can help us let go of limiting beliefs and cultivate empowering narratives.
