Real Cause of Stress: How Negative Belief Systems Affected My Business Life

So how did my negative belief system affect my business life?
As I mentioned in an earlier blog, I was a workaholic. Besides being a registered nurse, I tried many different business ventures: various kinds of home parties and several network marketing ventures.
I was very creative and had lots of wonderful ideas. I worked very hard and spent money we didn’t have, trying to get the businesses going. But every time the business would start to be successful, I would sabotage it.
I understand now why I did that. It was because I had to be true to my belief system of not being good enough. Subconsciously I believed that I didn’t deserve to succeed. So when I started to be successful, I would start doing things or not doing things that would cause my businesses to fail.
I found this to be true even as I started my business as a stress relief coach. I worked with people for well over a year before I ever got paid. I even turned down people who were willing to pay me. How dumb is that?
I didn’t believe that I was good enough for people to actually pay me. I had learned about the negative belief systems and emotional blocks and was able to help other people break theirs. but mine were too deeply buried. I couldn’t access them myself.
I had to go to another skilled Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) specialist to get my negative emotional blocks about worthiness and money broken. Finally, I was free to move forward with my business and succeed financially.
