Quick Tip: What's Holding You Back?

If over time you are not achieving the results you desire I recommend that you take a look inside yourself, instead of blaming something else for your lack of success. Your belief system could be holding you back.

Imagine a young man who desires to earn more money. He has a large family to feed and desperately needs the increase. But this young man grew up believing that money is the root of all evil, and that poverty is synonymous with righteousness. He strives forward consciously, but his subconscious thinking mantains the status quo of lack.
Or think of a young woman who desires to be married. She has had a string of promising relationships but they have all ended in shambles. Incidentally, this woman has the deep seated belief that she is ugly, and unworthy of love. Something she picked up from a cruel step-mother in her childhood. Can you begin to see how our inner negative thinking could undermine all our best conscious efforts?

So what are we to do about these limiting beliefs? How do they get there in the first place? How can we prevent or remove them? The answers to these questions can be found in an article I wrote a while ago. To access it please follow the link below:

In my next post we will be doing an exercise to remove and replace these limiting beliefs. Please try to make a list of any you may identify in yourself. We will create some empowering ones to think on. Please check back next week, and do bring a friend, some pencils and paper.

Till next week, stay positive, and take care of your mind.

Warm regards,
