Your knowledge that your early conditioning which leads you to regard it as a sign of weakness to ask for help exactly illustrates what I mean by ‘deep self-awareness’. You know that you find it difficult to ask for help and are in a position to challenge that and work towards changing that pattern of thinking if you find it unhelpful. The irony is, it’s hard to do it alone, so you may need help to challenge the thought that it’s not okay to ask for help!

This is excellent advise from an outstanding practitioner. I found the article illuminating. I am happy that I do much of what you suggest except the “asking for help” bit. Sadly, I was conditioned from early years that asking for help is a sign of deplorable weakness and a form of unhealthy dependency.

Thank you for this enlightening article.
