Beliefs That We Hold

Beliefs that we hold
We all have beliefs, some of them come from childhood, some come from a religious
belief system, yet others are formed at various stages throughout our lives sometimes
unconsciously without us even knowing about it, all of them are personal and something
we all hold with gusto and sometimes without question as to whether or not they limit or
enhance our life.

Negative limiting beliefs can be formed in a split second, a simple statement of, ‘I want
to go and do such and such...., but I won’t because I am no good at such and such’ is
enough to form a limiting belief, people do this all the time. A limiting belief is sometimes not only much easier to believe but also much easier to confirm by way of our everyday actions. We can confirm our limiting beliefs to be true by way of simple little statements where we remind ourselves that we were right to hold the belief, for example saying things like ‘I knew I would not be able to do it’, we might even try something once then give up, and then confirm we were right to not believe we could do it, or we might not bother to take action in the first place.
How many positive beliefs do you have about yourself? How many negative or limiting
beliefs do you have? Can you list any? Are you finding it easier to name you negative
beliefs or easier to name your positive beliefs, do you even have any positive empowering beliefs that help you in your life? If you have more negative beliefs than positive ones then this is something that needs to change.
