Why Changing your mind, can Change your life?
Living a healthier, wealthier life full of beauty starts first with mindsets. Everything about our lives is filter through our minds eye. Making changes in our life that will have a lasting effect begins with changing the way we view ourselves and the world around us. A constant question that many people have is 'why do bad things happen to certain people' and 'why do good things happen to people'. It seems that certain people on are on a winning steak while others are on a losing steak. We often try to rationalize theses events by blaming it on decisions that they made throughout their lives, or the circumstances of their parents or even karma from past lives mistakes and accomplishments. But actually its deeply rooted in belief, our beliefs are everything, the food we eat, the word we speak, the friends we keep. Beliefs shapes everything, and oftentimes we don't even know what our beliefs are. We have never contemplated why we do the things we do or taken a deeper look in what we believe about ourselves, our future, and our world. We see this pattern happen often, especially in our relationship with people. Children that grew up in homes of abuse will oftentimes themselves in relationships that are also abusive. The belief was ingrained in them as a child, that a way to receive or show love was through abuse. Privilege has become a major topic in our society, we often see children born in successful families becoming very successful themselves and vice versa in families of poverty and failure. Beliefs are the reason why this is, the roles of parents are to pass down beliefs and what they have learn so that the children can learn it faster and learn even more. This system becomes a problem when the parent has learned that 'Life is working against me' or 'If it's not one thing, it's another'. Now the children has learns some very flaw premises that makes it difficult for them to live out the life they desire.
The good news is that you can change your beliefs, changing your beliefs is the key to changing your life and actually living your best life.
First, you must recognize your beliefs, which means questioning everything. Why do you eat the food that you eat? What are the benefits of this food based on your beliefs? What are the cons of eating this food? Is it easy for you to change your diet or is it hard, why so? Do you believe you have discipline when it comes to eating, or do you often overeat? How do you know? Noticing the reasons why you do certain things will reveal your unconscious beliefs, take note of the beliefs around money and health and beauty. When you spend money, do you feel as though you lost something or regret it? When did you start believing this belief. Consider getting a notebook, that allows you to highlight all of the beliefs you were unaware that you had. Take note of when and where that you got this belief from, for example if you have belief about money but learned this belief from someone that whose financial life doesn't align with your goals. Remember you're completely in control of your mind and your actions. Make a list of beliefs that you want to have about yourself, about your life, and about the world. Go deeper and write down what you believe it would take to actually believe this. Consider this affirmation "Money comes easily and effortlessly", what can you do to make this affirmation believable on a subconscious level. Consider finding a method for you to earn money (even if it is a very small amount of money) that is easy and takes little to know time. For example, putting money in stocks or leaving it in your saving to just earn small amount of money. Continue to affirm this to yourself constantly. Changing a strong belief takes a lot of repetition and symbolic representation to constantly remind you. Consider surround yourself with things that make you feel wealthy, beautiful and healthy. Decorate your home that reminds you of your goals, create a vision board, and include affirmations on your mirror or your phone background.
