ISN'T IT TIME YOU SHED PERFORMANCE-BASED LIVING?
When Alas Wright's childhood family collapsed, he took the blame. As a wounded fourth grader, Alan secretly wondered, What's wrong with me? How can I become loveable again? Unconsciously, he made the most devastating--and common--of vows: "I'll do whatever it takes to be loved." Excelling in sports, earning straight A's, and well-liked by everyone--except himself--Alan had made a childhood commitment to performance-based living, which led to a series of grown-up problems. Hyper-sensitivity: Why am I so bothered by every criticism?Self-Doubt: Why do I always question my abilities and motives?
People pleasing: Why do I have a hard time saying no or facing conflict?
Fear of failure: Why do I feel like I have to be perfect?
Self-sabotage: Why can't I celebrate my gifts and accept God's blessings? Laugh, cry, struggle, relate, and be set free as Alan Wright invites you to discover his simple solution--how to release your pride and shame to Jesus, banish fear, and accept unconditional love and acceptance to live as you were meant to live.
