Читать книгу The Colors Of A Optimistic World - Logan J. Davisson - Страница 81

Test your beliefs! All too often our own convictions and beliefs prevent us from achieving our goals. But if we listen carefully to what we think about ourselves and what we think about success, money, etc., we are surprised to discover that we go through life with convictions that are often not even our own, but which we have already internalized and adopted from our parents, friends, acquaintances, etc. as a child, because we believe as a child that the grown-ups already know everything much better. But if we are convinced, for example, that money spoils the character or that you have to earn success hard... these are beliefs with fatal consequences. Because if you believe that, you will have a hard time being successful, and you will keep giving up halfway or even failing. Therefore, pay attention to what you think about yourself and the topic of success and correct old, long outdated beliefs and make yourself free. The decisive factor is what you believe! Only if you believe that you can really achieve your goal will you achieve it. But if you have inner doubts or fear that you are not up to your goal at all, it is impossible to realize your dreams and goals. In this case you should first work on your self-confidence and examine your beliefs, because not everything we believe is really true! Beliefs are at best a subjective truth and do not have to correspond to the objective truth or your own truth. If you set yourself a goal, but don't believe that you can really achieve it, you won't achieve it either. So if you want to achieve a goal, it is crucial for the success that you are absolutely convinced that you can achieve this goal. Only if you are deeply convinced of it, it will succeed. Pay close attention to your beliefs and emotions while addressing your goals. This way you can quickly find out which beliefs may block you in achieving your goals. For example, if you want more money but feel guilty in the deepest inner money or you don't think you are valuable, you will not be able to achieve your goal. Again, use the helpful method of raising awareness through brainstorming by writing down what you believe about yourself and your goals, as well as the topic of success. Get to the bottom of your beliefs and examine carefully whether they serve you or discourage and weaken you. If you have identified a negative belief, be aware that it is based on a subjective viewpoint and does not have to be true. Try to find out when and in what situation you developed this belief and why. At this point it is very momentous if you face up to your emotions and allow them to happen. Maybe old suppressed situations with other people come up and with them also the associated emotions like pain, anger, suffering etc. Allow your feelings and write them down as well. Especially when a negative belief was triggered by a close person and their behavior or statements, we often have to fight with anger and feelings of hatred because we realize that we believed the statement of a close person and concluded, for example, that we are not valuable or, for example, a failure. Forgive this person and realize that we are all just people and that each of us makes mistakes and sometimes we just don't know better. Just as we are entitled to make mistakes and not be perfect, so are others. Visualize the stressful situation and forgive the person involved as best you can. This will end the effectiveness of the old doctrine and free you. Consider reasons why this belief is not true and write behind your belief at least 3 reasons why it is not tenable. Play a little with your belief and reformulate it advantageously next. What should your creed be so that it strengthens you and serves you? Once you have found the right wording, write down your new belief again and try to live by your new one from now on. Many people are amazed at how elementary our beliefs and thinking about ourselves and our attitude towards success, money and wealth influences us. Stop being thwarted by untrue patterns of thought and free yourself. Rewrite your life and shape your future the way you want it. Then you are not going to stop on your way to your personal success.
