This is my Happy, Healthy Life worksheet from The Advanced ME/CFS Recovery Programme with Ashok Gupta:
Left Path Negative Thoughts and Beliefs about Achievements/Tasks |
Right Path Positive Thoughts and Beliefs about Achievements/Tasks |
I must make sure other people like everything I do | I will do things I am proud of |
My achievements will never be good enough | I will do things I enjoy, regardless of what other people think |
I can’t handle criticism when I’m being creative | Other people’s reactions to my creativity isn’t my concern |
I need to justify why I feel the way I do | I accept that I feel the way I do right now, whether other people accept it or not |
I need to convince other people, or make sure they approve of what I think and do | What I think and do are natural by-products of who I am. Other people’s opinions or approval is unimportant. Freedom comes from letting go of approval-seeking. |
There isn’t enough time to do everything I want to do | There is plenty of time to do the things that are really important to me |
I desperately want to be successful | My self-worth and happiness are not related to how successful I am |
