Lack of love as a child leads to feelings of inadequacy. This leads to sensitivity to rejection as an adult.

I am realizing each day, the importance of appreciating people around me and how a little acknowledgment can go a long way.

I’ve learnt that the simplest acknowledgements and appreciations given to my kids have made a huge difference to their level of confidence. At many times , adults feel that they need to “teach” their kids… I feel that appreciation, kind words of encouragement and simple acknowledgements are communications of love that impact my kids the most!

I agree, very true. It can make you over sensitive to criticism, even if it is constructive… Adrian asked how you over it… best way I have found is by doing things that make me feel good about myself. Like a regular exercise routine, doing what I say I will do, etc.. What about you? How do you overcome it?
Adrian Borgeest
This simple sentence has a powerful message, from my experience very true…. how do you overcome this?

I can relate to that Wayne!

I agreed with you and it can be triggered with people just saying ‘No’…
