This is the 3rd week I have been talking about re programming our minds to change what it is that we believe in order for our beliefs to work for us and not against us. It may help you to go back over the prior 2 weeks messages and re cap on them prior to moving forward with this week’s message. It is a lot to take in and grasp but if you will stay with this material and it’s message, you can change your belief’s and make them work for you rather then against you.
Now that you have made out a list of those things that you believe to be true about yourself, what you need to understand is that the ONLY thing in this world that makes them true for you, it is simply because you believe it. That’s right, it’s only your acceptance of it, not mine, not your spouse’s, not your bosses or your family. It’s just you and you alone. This is great news for you because that means you are only battling one thing and one thing alone. Not other people, no outside situations or things, you are only battling your mind. This alone should give you an understanding that the work needed to change your beliefs is not as big of a task as you may have originally thought it was.
The next step that needs to happen in this process is for you to understand that of those items on your list, they are only for you to change, no one else. Remember, this is all internal, not external. You believe those things on that list to be true because you choose to do so. Maybe not consciously… but you did choose to do so. Yes, I know that there were outside influences that added to this list, I get that and agree with you. What I am asking you to do is to accept responsibility for you and your beliefs. From here on…hold yourself accountable and be responsible. This is a huge part of re programming your beliefs because if you continue to blame someone else for why you are like you are, then why would you ever really need to change? It would not be your fault so there would be no need. This is your life, not your Mom’s, not your Dad’s, not your spouses or your ex spouses. Grab your life and take ownership of it, if you have blamed others, then stop. Understand that they have there own problems to deal with, why on earth would giving them more things to deal with help you or help them?
The next step in making your beliefs work for you rather then against you is to allow yourself to change. Give yourself permission to think differently, do differently and learn differently. Yes, it will feel awkward at first as most any kind of change does, but know inside that why you are changing is important, it is needed and that it is ok to do so.
Remember, this is all about you getting some different results in your life and to do so, you are going to have to think differently, view things differently, believe differently which will all cause you to act differently. All because, it is what you believe to be true right now today, that has got you what you have right now. Truly, aside from the mechanics and tasks needed to accomplish anything in life, it is our belief’s that dictate and direct most everything we do. Giving our self permission to believe in a different way, can also give us self empowerment and when we are going to take a stand and first challenge and then change our beliefs, little things like self empowerment will help you along the way.
Next week we will go over part IV of making your beliefs work for you rather then against you and cover the list you made of things you want to change about what you believe.
Until then, have a great Friday everyone and be blessed.
