When we believe we don't deserve something then we are going to prevent ourselves from getting it. It doesn't matter if it is a better job, a loving relationship, or better health. If we don't feel we deserve it then we aren't going to move forward. In this reflection we look at how changing the way we understand the word "deserve" can change the way we heal. ]]> http://tappingqanda.com/2011/10/deserve-v-worthy/feed/ 5 http://tappingqanda.com/2011/09/understanding-what-is-motivating-the-change/ http://tappingqanda.com/2011/09/understanding-what-is-motivating-the-change/#comments Wed, 21 Sep 2011 10:00:50 +0000 Gene Monterastelli http://tappingqanda.com/?p=1192 There are many reasons we want to make changes in our life.

The critical voice is nothing more then that little nagging voice that is always pointing out everything we have done wrong, everything we are going to do wrong, and everything we are never going to be. Sometimes this voice is nothing more than a simple annoyance, while other times it can be so crippling that it prevents us from getting out to bed in the morning. Here is an easy 8 step process to transform the critical voice into a very powerful tool for change and transformation.]]> http://tappingqanda.com/2011/06/transforming-our-critical-voice-in-to-something-helpful-in-8-easy-steps/feed/ 7 http://tappingqanda.com/2011/05/reasons-that-stop-us-from-trying/ http://tappingqanda.com/2011/05/reasons-that-stop-us-from-trying/#comments Fri, 20 May 2011 12:09:36 +0000 Gene Monterastelli http://tappingqanda.com/?p=1203 Often we are ourselves the biggest obstacle to our success.
