Four Lies
- Performance – I must perform up to a certain standard in order to feel good about myself
- Approval – I must be approved by certain people in order to feel good about myself
- Blame – Someone or something outside myself is the cause of my failures and rejections
- Shame – There is something wrong with me that can’t be repaired; I was born this way and can’t change
