Now that you’ve had an opportunity to take a look at what some of your negative core assumptions are, it’s time to start working on developing healthier core assumptions. Here are a few guidelines to follow:
One of the biggest problems is working on too many negative core assumptions at a time. Try to stick with one at a time.
Remember, your negative core beliefs have been with you for a long time and it will take some time to change them. This is a long-term project.
Keep your goals reasonable & reachable. If you think you’re “unlovable” today, you won’t become perfectly lovable next week. Instead decide what lovable means to you. Does being more lovable mean having more friends? Never being alone?
