How to Become the Person you Really Want to Be

Today let us have a look at one of the things that can get in our way; Our Beliefs

Beliefs can be negative or positive, therefore they can limit us or empower us. If we are not quite the person we want to be', then it pays off to find out if it is a thought (belief) that is holding us back. Could be anything from I do not know how', I do not have any support', I do not know where to start', I am uncertain about this' etc

Beliefs are thought patterns, evaluations, opinions, judgements and generalizations that we hold about ourselves and others. These beliefs are stored by our unconscious mind during our early formative childhood years. Our experiences with our parents, relatives, siblings, teachers, friends, social environment, from traumas, media influence or repetitive experiences add to the collection of information that forms these beliefs, be it negative or positive.

The first law of perception is that the eyes see but it is the mind that tells you what you see. One of the reasons our mind tells us what we see, or perceive, is that our underlying beliefs tend to make us look for certain things. For example a cynic will see what he is looking for just as much as an optimist will see what he is looking for. Each chooses their experience from their beliefs.

When we believe something to be true naturally we act as if it is. We bring on what we expect, we manifest it. (Think Placebo effect) If we continually act in ways that support negative beliefs, negative events tend to materialize. People are like magnets we attract what we believe.

To unlock our potential we must reject limiting beliefs and embrace positive, empowering ones. This enables you to go as far you wish. Change is difficult. It takes more than luck to make changes. We must master a skill not only to make them, but most of all to sustain the changes.

Holding on to self limiting patterns ensures that our potential can never be reached. We need to believe we can do itin order to achieve it. For this we need to be wired' with positive, empowering beliefs. With these we automatically set goals we know we can achieve and therefore be successful in reaching them.

Our beliefs need to encourage growth, and change to live a happy, successful and fulfilling life. Take stock of your thinking in patterns. Make a mental note of what thought keeps cropping up whenever you are struggling with something. Look into whether this thought is in your best interest, if not you can choose to change it and, thereby be on your way to becoming the person you want to be'.

As an example: if you find I do not know how' keeps cropping up. Stop yourself, sit down and start thinking in terms of If I did know how, what would I be doing differently?' That is a good start to slowing changing from I do not know how' to I can figure this out'..
