Your issue is that you are dealing with faulty thinking resulting from faulty beliefs. Seeking approval and reward from others is always going to result in failure. You need to seek those things from within yourself.
I am saying exactly that, Shannon.
Seeking approval and reward from others always HAS resulted in failure, I know that very well - and I know no sustainably successful/happy person who ever didn't have an internal self validation, their own value system they judged themselves by and internal locus of control.
And I WANT to seek those things from within myself. As I said, SE really supports me in nurturing my 'self' and addressing my faulty beliefs as it were. I also proactively judge myself by my own standards.
All I'm saying is that I keep needing to go back to SE because this is a core issue for me that leaves me (probably) sabotaging results. I had a violent childhood where i was consistently told in one way or another i didn't deserve to exist - so whilst i recognise the faulty thinking and beliefs i find it difficult to address those without the support of subliminals and SE seems to be great at that - it was the first taste of true self esteem I ever had.
So if there is something in MLS that can support the practices i start to implement when I'm on SE that seem to massively improve my life across the board and reap the bonusses that subliminals yield, something to help maintain an internal locus of control then i think that would be really helpful.
Your prerogative of course.
