“We are all deserving of love.”
– Sandra Bullock
Let’s talk about the “stuff” that gets in the way of us having what we want in life. People usually think it’s “time” and “money”, but it’s deeper than that. I have worked with people with a lot of time and a lot of money, and they get stuck in the same ways as everyone else.
I believe that we live in a disenchanted age. People are tired and disillusioned with trying to make ends meet in a world that can be exhausting. Many people feel stuck in survival mode and don’t know how to shift out of it.
It’s not a doom and gloom story, though.
Our job is to find the joy, the love, the laughter, the peace, the kindness, the compassion and so on. You may feel doubtful, discouraged, disconnected or disillusioned. And, there may be times when you feel as though your plans are derailed, or you become distracted by all the busyness of life. This does not mean we have failed; it just means we need to, again, find the lovely and the wonderful and go after what we want.
However, there is one more D word that I want us to explore today: it’s the deep thing that makes the barrier between us and the things we want, and that’s…
Deserving!
You cannot have anything if you think and feel you don’t deserve it. If you get it and deep down think you don’t deserve it, you’ll lose it, or it’ll slip away. “I don’t deserve this” is repellent. “I am deserving”is magnetic.
So tell me, what do you deserve? Do you deserve all the good life has to offer? If not, why not?
If you grew up and people told you stories that you didn’t deserve or had to work hard, struggle, keep quiet, please everyone (insert more bullshit stories here) etc. It’s time to let go of those stories because they have nothing to do with you; they never did. They had everything to do with the person telling them: NOT YOU! This is such a powerful notion. You get to tell stories that feel good and help you live life in a way that feels good to you.
If deserving good feels hard, you need to work with this affirmation…
“I am deserving of all the good life has to offer. I am worthy and deserving of all good because I exist.”

You do deserve all these things!
My parents are very protective and sometimes it means that they hold or should I say try to hold me back with tales of well meaning caution.
I’ve had to learn to take those restrictions off my wings…and try to live a bit more freely…even if it means disapproval or disdain…
Failure is not inevitable…but being free to do so is definitely a healthy way to live. 💕
Fear is highly infectious. People mean well, but they don’t realise they are projecting their fears about life. People who live life through fear miss out on so much. Fear is also part of who we are so we can try new things with a tremble in our tummy but we can still move forward. And we can change our minds and go in a new direction if we choose and none of it means failure it means we are evolving. xxx
I love that you keep a special notebook for special words…think that’s a fabulous idea Paul.

Might have to pinch that one. 😂
I am deserving of love, laughter and fun. I have been told so many stories in my life that have held me back. Thanks Paul, this really has helped
I deserve respect & to be recognised for the value I add.
