To be happy, choose happiness.
When you believe youre powerful and capable, the world becomes a masterpiece of your making.
Today I want you to take an inventory of your beliefs.Are your beliefs uplifting or defeating?
Natalie Allen
Do they empower you or disempower you?
Do they leave you feeling good or bad?
Thats why recognizing them and releasing them is so importantso you dont unconsciously keep yourself stuck!
And Ford was right.
Im not good enough
The Im not good enough limiting belief is typically rooted in comparisons.
Perhaps you could relate to this.
Ill be happy when…
Happiness isnt a contingency, based on some external event or achievement.
Yet many of us treat happiness as though it is a contingency, usually without realizing it.
We say things like:
Ill be happy when its the weekend.
Ill be happy when I have enough money.
Ill be happy when I achieve [insert goal here].
4.)
Im this way because… And it isnt until we become conscious of these victim-based limiting beliefs that we can work to change them.
Left unchanged, this mindset will prevent you from proactively taking action to improve the quality of your life.
5.)
Ill never be…
Ill never be wealthy.
Ill never be happy.
Ill never be successful.
If you answered yes, then the Ill never be… limiting belief is currently holding you hostage.
To pivot, give thanks for all that you are and all that you have.
Then change your negative affirmations to positive affirmations.
Im not capable of achieving…
Sometimes we allow frustration to take over, and when this happens, we belittle ourselves and our progress.
Im too old to do…
Each day were given is a blessing.
And all of us have a different timeline for our physical journey.
Dont worry about what someone else accomplished before you or what others are accomplishing now.
Focus on yourself and what you’ve got the option to do starting today.
The fact is, you didnt start sooner and thats okay!
Theres no sense in feeling guilty about it.
We all start somewhere, and theres nothing wrong with being a beginner at something!
Keep in mind, the experts of the world were once just beginners too.
I have nothing to offer
All of us are born with innate gifts and talents.
Yet all too often, we compare ourselves with others and convince ourselves we have nothing to offer.
This limiting belief is not only untrue, but its also damaging.
But theres no such thing as manmade perfection, which is why focusing on progress should be the goal.
Therefore, the excuse that you dont know enough to start something is just that an excuse.
Above all, remember, your words are powerful!
The words you think, speak, and believe create your external reality.
They shape your perspective about yourself and the world around you.
As Jesus once said, My brother choose again.
Now the only question is: Are you ready to choose again?
