When people with strong self-esteem allow vulnerability, they know deep down inside that they are perfectly OK they way they are. They don’t need to improve themselves and they love themselves WITH their supposed faults. We are human after all. We have faults. We make mistakes. I know for me, I have been working with my perfectionism (which has caused me great emotional distress over the years) which is a maladaptive trait to say the least! I’ve had to literally practice not being perfect and what I’ve noticed is that I’m much more forgiving and compassionate to others now.

Someone once told me, courage is not the absence of fear but the ability to ACT in spite of fear. So advise you to act as if you are going to get what you’ve asked for. That’s the law of attraction. And acting as if you are going to get what you asked for is step number three in the seven step manifesting process I write about in my book.
