Hi Ken,

One thing that came about since my last women's support meeting was that exact fact! It is true that I have dodged responsibility for myself.... and I will tell you why. Over time, I began enabling h to make the decisions for me to avoid fights. Since then, it became habit and didn't realize I was doing it still. Even though you were all telling me... I still didn't understand/see it till recently.

It is part of my new goal:

"I value myself and take responsibility in my life so that I feel worthy and confident in myself and my decisions"

a few of my action steps to help with this are:
-don't fear outcome *take risk, stand behind my decision
-stop making my self worth conditional on other people
-retrain my thoughts (to catch when I am doing this) and reassess before responding.
-measure success daily (write down where/how I was able to prove this)

Things are changing.

What are your thoughts of h's responses to things of lately?
