Self-doubt is mind and spirit poisen. While everyone on this planet experiences self-doubt, the key is to systematically eradicate self-doubt, which lives in our head. How do we do it? By "trading up" our thoughts. The moment we feel "bad" or any negative emotion, it's an indicator that our thoughts are out of whack - they're being attacked by self-doubt. Our job is to consciously shift from negative thougths to slightly more empowering ones. When we do this, we feel a little bit better, and we drop kick self-doubt out of our head, at least temporarily. Great topic and great post Jenny!

You hit it on the head when you wrote this: "Love yourself IF you are successful, productive, in-shape, and in a relationship. Somehow those became the new conditions." For some reason, all my life, I've felt this way, that confidence is based on external conditions. I still can't get around this habit. If you find a way, please let me know. :) I constantly have a struggle with my own confidence and feeling of self-worth.
