Core beliefs have become negative for me around my pessimism, helped somewhat by a negative work culture and the struggles of growing up in a poor immigrant family. I think leaving a few relationships with a negative view of me was part of the reason for the break up, since there wasn’t respectful behaviour. My upbringing in a major religion helped buoy my optimism somewhat, and still does.
It was helpful to be reminded to observe something positive daily, as I reverse my negative core beliefs and record them as evidenced that I am worthy, loveable and competent.
