Ask your spiritual Guidance (whatever that is for you): What is the truth about the thoughts/false beliefs you may have uncovered in Step Three?
Ask: What is the loving behavior toward your Inner Child in this situation? What is in your highest good? What is kind to yourself?
Open and allow the answers to come through you in words, pictures, feelings, dreams, in talking with another, or in reading a book. The answers may not come immediately, but if you have a sincere desire to learn, they will come.
Is the fear of failure or of success keeping you immobilized? Do you fear rejection if you fail? Do you fear demands and expectations if you succeed? Until you are ready to manage rejection without it defining your worth and set loving limits regarding demands and expectations, you may stay stuck in procrastination. Only you, as a loving Adult, can manage rejection and demands. Today, practice being your loving Adult.
