Did You Know That Your Beliefs Are Not Real?
Did You Know That Your Beliefs Are Not Real?
The answer is a definite, indisputable yes!
Your beliefs command the way you live your life; they shape your life, your financial life, your career or business, your personal and professional relationships, and your health and fitness. In fact, the way you are living your life right now is shaped and directed by the beliefs that you are holding.
The thing to realise here is that most of your beliefs are disrupting, sabotaging or interfering with your greatness, with your aspirations and goals. These beliefs are mostly not based on facts or reality. They are not based on truth, but on perceptions.
They are beliefs that you gained as you progressed through life. You sucked in beliefs like a sponge, especially when you were a child; from your parents, friends, teachers, books, movies, and so on. And those beliefs are now the way you see, understand and interpret the world, your world.
You make your daily decisions, your reactions and actions are based upon those beliefs; those beliefs that were not yours in the first place.
Some of these beliefs that you hold may be helpful, while the majority of the others may be unfavourable and damaging. One of the most common beliefs is, "I am not good enough." Many people have been told that statement when they were young; perhaps by their parents, teachers or teased by their friends.
This belief, that they heard many times when they were young, has the power and potential of keeping them stuck where they are. Whatever they attempt to do, they will probably fail, simply because they have this belief that they are not good enough.
As if that were true! That belief is utter rubbish. It isn't true.
If you couldn't draw a car when you were a younger and you were told you're not good enough, what has that got to do with you running your own business at the age of 25? What has that got to do with the way you hold a presentation, the way you dance Salsa?
In theory, nothing. But you held on to that belief that you are not good enough. You held on to it as if it were true in every area of your life. It has unconsciously held you back from having, doing or becoming anything you want.
That's what I mean by beliefs are lies. Certainly a very high percentage of them are, and yet they govern our lives, as in the example I have just mentioned.
The limiting belief "I am not good enough" must be eliminated from your unconscious mind and must be replaced with a self enhancing belief, so you may move forward and become the successful business owner that is within your right to be.
Want to know one way to challenge and eliminate a limiting belief?
I learned this a while ago, and it works. When you come across a limiting belief, blow it out of proportion. For example, the belief that "I'm not good enough" can be blown out of proportion by saying, "Yeah, sure, I'm not good enough to drive two cars at once, or not good enough to stand on the wings of an aeroplane, or not good enough to lift five buses above my head…"
This way you give the limiting belief less power; you kind of ridicule it and render it powerless. When you keep doing this method any time you say "I'm not good enough", the sabotaging belief will disappear.
Go for it!
