It's Not That they Don't Believe You, It's that they are a Small-Me

When someone refuses to believe something—even when it is verifiable, logical, or obvious—it often has less to do with facts and more to do with their inner state.

Why Small-Me Resists Truth

The Small-Me operates from:

  • Fear of being wrong

  • Fear of losing control or certainty

  • Fear of looking foolish

  • Habitual skepticism rooted in past disappointments

In this state, even truth can feel threatening.
Not because it’s untrue, but because it challenges the safety of what the Small-Me has built its identity on.

How Being a SuperME Changes That

When you shift from Small-Me to SuperME, everything changes—not because the world changes, but because you’re no longer viewing truth through a lens of fear.

Here’s how SuperME helps:

1. Purpose Grounds You in Openness

When you live with purpose, you no longer need to defend your ego.
You seek alignment, not dominance.
So when someone shares truth with you, your first reaction becomes:

“Let me understand…”
Not: “Let me resist.”

2. Love Creates Space for Humility

Love—especially self-love—gives you the strength to say:

“I didn’t know that. Thank you.”
Small-Me thinks being wrong is failure.
SuperME knows that being wrong is growth.

3. Gratitude Shifts the Narrative

Gratitude says:

“Thank you for bringing this to me. Even if I can’t fully accept it now, I appreciate the light you’re offering.”

This mindset removes defensiveness and invites inner spaciousness.

Final Reflection

So yes—when someone says, “I just don’t believe what you say,”
despite clear evidence, what they might really mean is:

“I’m not yet ready to expand into the version of me who can receive this truth.”

And that’s okay. Because SuperME doesn’t shame the Small-Me.
It gently invites it to rise.

So the next time you're met with resistance, ask:

Am I speaking to their logic? Or to their wound?

And if it’s the latter…
Offer Purpose.
Extend Love.
Practice Gratitude.

And let the truth do its quiet work.
