Faulty programming (Copy)
Why did I resist getting help when my life was going poorly?
Programming.
All of us show up with a clean slate…a blank hard drive…
Then we receive input as we listen, observe, and interact.
Moment-by-moment, what we hear, see, and experience begins to form our Beliefs.
Our belief system expresses itself as our Behaviors.
For most of my life, my programming intake shouted: Men who seek help are weak.
Adopting this as a belief showed up in my behavior: I was more willing to let something crumble than feel fragile.
My turning point came when I began the journey of reprogramming.
I searched for an alternate truth.
One that said: Men who seek help are courageous.
Ultimately, I found it.
In order to behave differently, I needed to believe differently…
And that started with being more intentional about the programming I exposed myself to.
Identify the behavior you want to change, then ask yourself:
What old programming do I need to distance myself from?
What new programming do I need to align myself with?
Willingness is all you need to start.
