•The first group simply responds with something like: “Hell yes, I’m worthy of having it and deserve it!” (I love working with these people, because their attitude means they’re already halfway to having what they want.)
•The second group usually responds more tentatively with something like: “Well, I think so.“
•And the third group often seems shocked and confused by the question. Once they reflect on it, they usually respond in a hushed voice. Sometimes they’re truthful and tell me that they don’t believe they’re worth it or deserve it; and sometimes they lie and say that they do believe they’re worth it and deserve it.
Henry Ford famously said: “Whether you think you can, or think you can’t — you’re right.”
The same holds true for your beliefs around worth and deserving. In my experience, it is very difficult for people to have, be or do something that they don’t believe they deserve and are worthy of having, being or doing. And if they DO manage to pull it off, it’s usually temporary.
