Hi Friend,

Did you grow up putting yourself last or minimizing yourself? While it seems noble and selfless to do so, it doesn't serve the world as optimally as we hope. It causes people to forget you and is a form of self-sabotage. It can lead to frequent experiences of disappointments and feeling rejected. It also blocks blessings too because we fail to ask God for what we want.

We don't ask specifically because we haven't allowed yourselves time to know exactly what we want. It is hard to open up and expect to receive greater blessings when you don't have clear ideas in your mind or heart of what you really want from life.

Below is an exercise you can do today to start opening up to RECEIVING what you want. It might be difficult if you are not used to giving yourself permission to have greater joys, pleasures, or support. Try it out...and redo this exercise often. Please let me know what your experiences are.
