Monday Motivation

Happy Monday!

Do you believe you can do it? Here are tips on how to increase your belief in your success!

Be Aware Get rid of the beliefs you formed as a child that no longer serve you. Challenge the inner voice that insists this is the way it’s done, as ego reinforces its control through such thoughts. These voices arise when you challenge an existing belief.

A limiting belief is recognized by your emotional response. For example, repeat the belief, I can't do it and note the emotions that arise. You might be reminded of an incident when you were young and sense tightness or constriction in your chest, throat or stomach. This is your body informing you the belief still exists in your emotional body. Other limiting beliefs include: I’m not worthy, I’m not enough, and/or I don’t matter.

Stop Needing To Be Right Get rid of beliefs that no longer serve you. In surrendering them, you suspend the need to gather evidence to justify you’re right. As you are more aware, how does the need to be right feel? Is there a feeling of spaciousness as though a small voice within invites you to let go? By not gathering evidence you release your attachment to your old story.

Do you want to be right or happy? “To change beliefs, we must learn to perceive them as abstract ideas separate from the world,” states teacher of the Toltec Wisdom Gary van Warmerdam.

No Limits of Love For Yourself To remove power from a belief stop reinforcing it. Think about something you have told yourself in the past such as I will never be a size 8 or I will never get a high paying job. I will never get out of debt. I will never save money for retirement. Yes, it will take you longer to succeed, however, during the journey you will become proficient at it. Embrace your fears and practice self-compassion despite your beliefs.

New Dreams Design a new dream that challenges the old belief. After you challenge the outdated belief, compose a new one in line with your truth. You must know your worth and stand on your power. This means you live in alignment with your authentic self. Gather evidence to support your new belief. Live it, breathe it, and be it. In your new loving relationship you might reframe your unworthiness to: I love and approve of myself unconditionally.

Examine your beliefs by becoming aware whether they are serving you now. You need not adopt other people’s ideas or beliefs, believing that since they work for them, they will serve you too. Allow your true self to unfold since the life of your dreams awaits you on the other side.
