I don't know what the other reason might be, but maybe there's another alternative explanation to how my mom was behaving.
Maybe she wasn't being judgmental and hard to please.
Third question.
Who am I when I hold on to that belief?
So when I believe my mother is too judgmental and hard to please, I'm short-tempered.
I become this 13-year-old version of myself.
I'm not really very nice.
Okay, fourth question.
Who would I be without that belief?
If I had a magic wand and I could somehow extinguish that belief, I could make it just disappear.
How would I feel?
Who would I be?
Well, if I didn't believe that my mother was too judgmental and hard to please, I'd
be more patient.
I feel lighter.
I be more myself.
Sounds great.
So in just a few questions, I determined that this thing that I thought was a fact was not a fact.
It's just a belief that it wasn't really serving me and that I might be way better off without it.
So now it's time for the turnaround.
