subject: Hurdle Blocks To Success By Overcoming Limiting Beliefs [print this page] Ask and be answered. Ask and be answered.
Test me, I will try it.
Provoke me, I will retaliate.
I will do what you want me to do.
I want to prove to you that i can, not because i agree with you.
Can.
Yes, that's the operative word: Can.
In overcoming limiting beliefs about ourselves, "can" is the most powerful word that could hurdle all the blocks that limit success.
We Can, If We Will
Most of us may not know it yet but we have the power to be able to do a number of things that we initially think is impossible to do at the first instance. So if we think we can't, then we really can't. What we think of ourselves is really a crucial way in determining what we could actually do. We can't do, only because we think we can't.
Sky's The Limit
Just like this famous expression, what we are capable of doing is limitless. Come to think of it, even the skies are no limit as the skies are frontiers that we have already explored as well. Think of the Wright Brothers. Were it not for their bold and daring thinking that we could actually travel from one place to another through the skies, then airplanes would not have been made!
What we hold in our thoughts are such powerful mantras that could unlock our limitless potentials to do great things, thus, overcoming limiting beliefs and onward to success. How we see our inner self is what really counts, not what others think.
I Think, I Believe, I Know
I Think
Cogito ergo sum. Latin maxim reminds us of how we differ from all other living things. We have the capacity to think. We are gifted with the power to rationalize. However, it is this power to reason out things, weighing options, which sometimes do us more harm than good if we want to succeed. We may end up limiting what we can physically accomplish by thinking too much.
I Believe
Amen. So be it. If you believe in yourself, there's nothing you cannot do! Willpower! If you believe in yourself, then people will believe in you?
I Know
When you know something, you are sure. No one can take that fact away. So go. Do!
Limitations are sometimes just illusions. In the words of the famous author Richard Bach in his timeless tale, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, overcoming limiting beliefs is learning to let go and trust yourself:
"Don't believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding, find out what you already know, and you'll see the way to fly."
