What is limiting BELIEF...

in #belief5 years ago (edited)

Limiting faith is an idea, conscious or subconscious, that limits or holds you in one or more aspects of your life.
Oh, and these beliefs are not real. These are false or imaginary beliefs.
Limiting beliefs are often subconscious. Therefore, it is important to note that you may not even know that you have them.
It is also likely that you have lived with your limiting beliefs for a very long time. Because of this, they shape your whole reality.
My specialty in college was sociology, and I want to use this to some extent in my writing, since I love sociology. There is a famous sociologist named Robert C. Merton who coined the term self-fulfilling prophecy.
Have you ever heard of those?
It is a concept that an idea or belief can influence how something is played out. It does not matter whether the idea of ​​faith is true or not.
The word prophecy means predicting what will happen in the future. It goes without saying that self-fulfilling prophecies are your predictions about how your future will change. Made by yourself.
Limiting beliefs shape how you see your reality and how you act because of it.
It's a little stupid, and you have heard a million times that you are the master of your world. The way your limiting beliefs influence your thoughts affects how you see the world around you. This affects how you emotionally respond to these thoughts.
Combine this with the concept of a self-fulfilling prophecy, and voila, you created a prison for your own progress.
