If we don’t believe we’re worthy of love, respect, success or kindness, then even when others are willing to offer those things, we either push them away, question them, or fail to even ask for them. In effect our inner belief sets the limit on what we think is possible or permissible.
This plays out in many areas.
Relationships: if you don’t feel worthy of love, you may settle for less or not communicate your needs clearly.
Career: feeling undeserving of sucess can lead to self-sabotage,
hesitation to ask for promotions or underpricing your work.
Healing: you might not seek help or support because a part of you feels like you’re not “allowed” to have peace of joy.
So in a way, believing in your worth is not arrogance- it’s a prerequisite for healthy connection and growth.
Pay attention to the moments you downplay your needs, apologise for existing, or silence yourself.
Those are signs something in you doubts your worth.
Let someone compliment you, ask for help, let yourself rest without guilt. Take up space. Invest in your healing. Choose relationships that nourish you. Set boundaries.
Every time you choose to treat yourself with dignity, you are slowly, steadily telling your nervous system: “I belong here”.
