‘Self-doubt is what happens when you know who you are, but don’t trust who you are. To trust yourself, you must live your truth.’- Katie Horwitch
Self-doubt is a dream-killer. It is not good for you. It is not good for us because, according to Katie, ‘Self-doubt makes us believe our successes depend on a very specific set of factors and bullet points lining up just like so, but success is not a list to be crossed off.’
‘Self-doubt is a sign we’re losing our footing in who we are. We begin to believe we don’t have any power, when in fact, we have all the power. We’ve just forgotten.’
‘Self-doubt without boundaries can reshape the core of who you are.’ But if you listen to your self-doubt, you can take advantage of it. Because you can set yourself free if you know how to use it to your own advantage.
If you have the gut to listen to what you are hearing from within, ‘self-doubt is change and growth knocking at your door, a feeling that’s meant to be acknowledged and felt through.’
If you really want to be your Self, ‘you must live your truth. And to live your truth means trusting it.’ The question is, ‘Do you trust your truth?’
As always, you are more, not less!
