How Your Beliefs Help You Create Your Ideal Life

As I help my clients create abundance in their lives and businesses, an important part of my work is to help them consciously create beliefs that will help them create the results they want.

This is so important!  It is simply impossible to create your ideal life if your belief system does not support it. So my focus with you this week is to explain how this all works.

A first thing to think about here is that beliefs are created by thinking the same thoughts over and over again until they become cemented to you as your "reality."  This is how we create beliefs as adults.

But many of our beliefs have been with us since we were young children!  So, for example, if you were taught as a young child that "money doesn't grow on trees," you heard that idea over and over again.  At some point, you internalized that belief, and it became "reality" to you.  Until age 7 or so, when your conscious mind is fully formed, what other people tell you is simply absorbed by your subconscious mind, which is like a huge database that simply accepts any data being dumped into it.

Continuing with this same example, as an adult, you now operate with the belief that "money doesn't grow on trees."  And you constantly "see" evidence that it is true and make decisions about your life from that belief, even though you may not realize that to be the case.  Depending on how much self-awareness you have, and how "busy" you keep your mind, you probably don't even realize this is happening.

Here's how our beliefs work.  As humans,we instinctively "look for evidence" that supports our beliefs.  And that is all we "see."  So if we have a belief, for example, that "money doesn't grow on trees," all we will "see"  is opportunities to make that belief true.  And we won't even notice the opportunities that support any other belief, for example, that "there is an abundance of money out there and more ways to make money than ever before." And we let the opportunities to prove that belief just zoom right past us without even noticing them, much less acting on them.

This explains situations like we saw last year, where many people were claiming "recession" and hunkering down in fear and worry, while others were out there creating incredible fortunes and spreading the wealth around.  These two different groups of people were operating from two very different sets of beliefs, and as a result, were "seeing" two very different sets of opportunities.  And, perhaps most importantly, were getting very different results. 

It's critical that you have beliefs that support the life that you want to create!  And this requires that you start paying attention to the beliefs you're currently operating from.  This can be a real challenge for people, as the beliefs that currently limit you may have simply become "reality" to you! 

It really is easier to spot these beliefs in other people than in yourself.  My role with my clients is often to spot these for them and bring them out into the light where they can make conscious decisions about them.  And even though it's pretty easy for me to do this with my clients, it's much harder to do that for myself.  That's where my coach comes in!

It's important to know that you can consciously create new beliefs that support the life you want.  Once you see what belief is holding you back, you can take a look at it and consciously decide if you want to keep it or replace it with a new one.

Are your current beliefs supporting the life you want to live?
