The biggest one so far has been that I'm not good enough to be who I wish to be...that I'm not educated enough, powerful enough, charismatic enough. I know it's BS at the conscious level, but at the subconscious level, there they are.
Something else: fear, guilt and shame stemming from past experiences are also at the forefront. I've failed at business, helplessly watched my wife die, was homeless for a few months, lost all my money on bad investments, etc. All these and more have fueled a fire of fear, guilt and shame. AM 6.0 seems to be dredging these issues up. I had no knowledge they still existed because I had dealt with them at a conscious level.
My tendency towards people pleasing as a tool to get my needs met. My concern about my image, and what people think of me.
These are the most persistent issues. There are others, but they are fleeting. I have a method of dealing with the minor issues which I call "get the hell off my bus." So far it has been very effective. The major stuff needs to be kicked of repeatedly (and violently) however.
Also, some things just can't be expressed effectively with words at this point. Maybe in the future.
