The Real Art of “Receiving” - Hard Truth 💔
You know those moments when you: • Deflect compliments with "Oh, this old thing?" • Say "I'm fine, I don't need help" while drowning • Feel guilty when good things happen to you • Turn down opportunities because "I'm not ready yet" • Feel uncomfortable when someone pays for dinner • Brush off praise with "It was nothing" or "Anyone could do it" • Reject support then burn out trying to do everything alone This isn't about being humble. This isn't about being independent. This is about SELF-WORTH Here's what I've discovered after watching countless women (myself included) become masters at pushing away exactly what they're hoping for: Every time you reject what's being offered, you're reinforcing a belief. "I don't deserve this." "There must be a catch." "I haven't earned it yet." So you deflect the compliment. Refuse the help. Decline the opportunity. And then wonder why good things feel so hard to come by. Let's talk about where this really shows up 👀 💋 With compliments: Someone says you're talented and you immediately list your flaws. They admire your success and you credit luck. They appreciate your beauty and you point out your imperfections. You're literally training people to stop seeing your worth. 🤝 With help: You're overwhelmed but say "I've got it handled." Friends offer support and you insist you're fine. Colleagues want to assist and you worry you'll owe them. Then you wonder why you feel so alone in your struggles. ✨ With opportunities: The promotion comes and you think "They must be desperate." The invitation arrives and you assume they needed to fill a spot. The partnership offer lands and you question their motives. You're rejecting your own expansion before it even begins. 💰 With abundance: Money feels uncomfortable. Success feels undeserved. Recognition feels wrong. Love feels too good to be true. You're literally allergic to receiving what you've been working toward. ⚠️⚠️Here's what's really happening ⚠️⚠️ You've convinced yourself that rejecting good things makes you humble. But it's actually self-sabotage.
