A 6 year old told me he has no confidence.
I said “how do you know?”
HIs reply was because my dad told me.
When I asked him how he specifically knew himself, he didn’t know how he knew he had that problem and it started to make him think about what foundations his whole problem was built on.
We are often labelled by family or friends so we tend to adopt and except the label of who we think we are. We start to behave in a way that fulfils the label, accepting the label and matching the label.
This then limits us to what we think we can do.
What labels have you taken on and given yourself from other people?
