7 Tips for Overcoming Feelings of Inadequacy

1. Remind yourself that you are not who other people think or say you are.

2. Remind yourself that everybody makes mistakes at times, has areas of weakness, and things they want to change.

3. Remind yourself of ways in which you’ve grown and changed with time. You’re not who you once were - so celebrate how far you’ve come.

4. Also, the ending isn’t written and the future isn’t fixed. You’re free to change your image, and an old identity.

5. Identify the lies you have believed about yourself – and work on changing them so they’re more accurate and true. Also, don’t reinforce those lies by acting like you think they’re true.

6. Remember that your feelings are not the same as facts. Don’t live based on your feelings … as that will keep you trapped.

7. Hang out with those who see, and who appreciate, your worth. And take their words to heart, and let them help to build you up.

“The world to me was a secret, which I desired to discover; to her it was a vacancy, which she sought to people with imaginations of her own.”

— Frankenstein, Mary Shelley

My money bowl. Saw a great green goblet in a local charity store then found this old collection of coins in a green frame. So I made a money bowl: Bay leaves inscribed with sigils, orange peel, camomile seeds which I hope to grow afterwards, assorted coins and a white candle dressed with nutmeg. Underneath that candle you can see a petition too. I also put in a penny from my year of birth in there which I have since put in my wallet. I'll refresh the materials and burn a new candle every payday.
