What’s holding you back from achieving your goals? Many of us have tried to quit smoking or lose weight, only to find ourselves right back where we started. The reason? Our self-limiting beliefs. These beliefs, buried deep within our subconscious mind, hold more power over us than we may realize.
But the good news is, with some effort and commitment, we can overcome these beliefs and finally achieve our goals.
When we set out to make a change, whether it’s to lose weight or quit smoking, we often start out strong. We join a gym, start eating healthier, and feel motivated to make a difference. But after a few days or weeks, we fall back into old habits.
Why does this happen?
It’s because our self limiting beliefs stop us in our tracks.
Our beliefs, which reside in our subconscious mind, are responsible for approximately 95% to 98% of our lives. They were formed when we were younger, and programmed by our parents, teachers, and peers. As we got older, they were reinforced by the media, our bosses, and others around us.
Some of these beliefs may be obvious to us, but others are buried deep within our subconscious mind, out of sight and out of mind.
Let’s say you want to lose weight, but you have a self-limiting belief that skinny people look unattractive. Your subconscious mind will cling to this belief, making it difficult for you to lose weight.
So, what can you do about it?
The first step is to make a choice.
Choose what you want to achieve, and commit to it. Start with 1-3 choice affirmations, such as “I choose to reduce my weight” or “I choose to control my appetite.” Repeat these affirmations throughout the day to instill your intention and commitment in your subconscious mind.
Changing your beliefs can be a simple process, but it takes time and effort. Over time, as you continue to repeat your affirmations, your self-limiting beliefs will lose their power over you. You will develop new, empowering beliefs that will positively influence your life.
Conclusion:
What’s holding you back from achieving your goals? It’s likely your self-limiting beliefs. But with commitment and effort, you can overcome these beliefs and finally achieve what you set out to do. Start by making a choice and repeating your choice affirmations throughout the day.
Over time, your subconscious mind will begin to adopt your new beliefs, and you will be on your way to achieving your goals. Remember, commitment and patience are key.
So, what are you waiting for? It’s time to take control and start living the life you want.
