The Power We Possess
Me, 7 years old
Thoughts I had
• About myself– I am weak– I am incapable– I am unlovable– I am a failure– I am a bad person– My thoughts and feelings are not important– I have no value– I am not a confident person– I cant do a lot of things– I have to comply to what other people want me to do
• About others– Everyone else is smarter than me– They are better then me– I will never be able to have what they have– Other people live happier lives than I do
Thoughts I had
• About life in general– Life is scary– Life is miserable– Life is hard– I am a victim of my circumstances and there is
nothing I can do to change that
