Your problem is you’re… too busy holding onto your unworthiness.
Meaning of the quote
The quote is saying that your problem is that you spend too much time thinking you are not good enough. You hold on to the idea that you are not worthy, which keeps you from being your best self. Instead of focusing on your flaws, you should try to see the value in yourself and what you have to offer. When you let go of your feelings of unworthiness, you can focus on growth and achieving your goals.
