THE KINDS OF BELIEFS THAT ARE IDENTIFIED AND CHANGED
Individuals are able to tap their full potential for increasing personal and professional effectiveness by changing self-defeating beliefs into self-empowering ones.

Self-Defeating Beliefs		Self-Empowering Beliefs
“No matter how hard I try, it's never good enough.”		“I do my best and my best is good enough for me.”
“I am usually tense and anxious when things change too quickly.”		“I am calm, confident and energized by changes and challenges in my life."
“I feel bad because other people treat me badly.”		“I have the power to choose my actions and reactions to what others do.”
“It's necessary to worry about things in order to show that I care about them.”		“I relax, do my best, and focus on solutions rather than problems."
“Life is a real struggle. Things just never seem to work out for me."		“I create my life with my thoughts and actions. If I don't like it I have the power to change it.”
