Making space for a better you.

Frank, when was the last time you unlearned something you thought was true your whole life?

We’ve all had those moments:

  • Like realising the Earth isn’t flat.
  • Or that smoking was never sexy – despite what the movies told us.

Now we look back and think, “How did we ever believe that?”

And yet, we still carry around old beliefs about ourselves that we’ve never questioned.
Beliefs that sound sensible, but silently sabotage our confidence, our peace, our power.

So today, we’re shining a light on:

3 Things Worth Unlearning

1. Rest = Lazy

We’ve been raised to glorify hustle.
But rest isn’t weakness – it’s wisdom. It’s leadership.
It’s how we reset our nervous system, clear the mental clutter, and reawaken our creativity.

You’re not lazy for slowing down. You’re wise.

2. Your Worth = Your Productivity

You’re not a machine. You’re a miracle.
We’ve been conditioned to measure our value by our output.
But you are worthy, even when you pause. Even when the to-do list stays undone.

You are enough, even in stillness.

3. Conflict is Bad

Many of us learned to avoid conflict, fearing it meant trouble or rejection.
But when done with care, conflict isn’t chaos – it’s connection.
It’s honesty. It’s courage. It can bring more peace, not less.

Speaking your truth is a gift, not a threat.

 Final Thought

Sometimes the path to more confidence, more clarity, and more peace…
Isn’t about adding more to your life –
It’s about letting go of what was never yours to carry in the first place.

See you next week for another Mindset Mastery Monday with Deirdre Maguire.
