Overcoming Self-Doubt

Breathe in slowly. Breathe out fully. Self-doubt is a visitor, not a resident. Notice the voice of doubt. Hear its words without believing them. Say silently: thank you for trying to protect me, but I have this. Recall three things you have done well recently. Small or large, they count. Let their reality outweigh the doubt. Now place a hand on your chest and feel your heart beating. It has never given up on you. Neither will you. Repeat: I trust my judgment. I trust my path. I trust myself. Every time doubt returns today, breathe, and return to this trust. You do not need to be perfect. You only need to keep going.
