For over 30 years of my life, I based my sense of happiness on my achievements and how these made me look in other people’s eyes — mainly those close to me.

I’ll admit that for all those years, I had a clear case of the “not-good-enough syndrome”, although I couldn’t see it at all back then. I say “I’ll admit” because I’m well aware that this is a widespread “thing” but one that not everyone feels comfortable discussing at dinner parties.

For so many reasons, I simply bought into the belief that I needed to prove my worth to others — all the time. Because of this, my self-esteem suffered from a “yo-yo dynamic”.

I’m happy to report that I’m well on the recovery path to a much more satisfying relationship with myself now :) thanks to understanding the below, so keep reading.
