Most people have become trapped within the guidelines, limitations and negative beliefs that were set for them.
By the conditioning of others, bad suggestions, their experiences, especially their early childhood experiences, and by their own mind.
Bad suggestions that were implanted in us, from a very early age, can have a detrimental effect on us, for years to follow.
Your limiting beliefs and negative conditioning. Then become mental programs, that run in your subconscious mind.
These programs, then can affect you and hold you back in many different ways. And they can control your thought processes, actions and behaviors.
Often, our past conditioning, can lead us to thinking that we are not
- Worthy enough
- Good enough
- Capable enough
- Smart enough
Negative or bad suggestions, that were said to us or even written in our school reports.
Such as.
Being told, we need to do better or could do better, or things that made us feel stupid, inferior or that somehow, that we are, quiet, not good or worthy enough.
Can severely restrict us and negatively affect our self worth, self confidence and self esteem.
I often hear people say things like
- They're thick
- They're not very clever
- They can't
- People like me, never
- They're not very good
This is not true, though.
It just means, that you have not learned, tried or been taught how to.
But it is not just our limiting beliefs, that block off, our true inner potential and genius.
Stress, tension and negative emotions, can shrink our awareness, shut off our creativity and affect our intelligence levels.
The human species has evolved and been designed to put protection and self-preservation, first.
This is why many people, think of the worse case scenario first, rather than trying to find something positive.
Our mind’s primary job is to try and move us away from pain and guide us towards pleasure.
But many people are stuck in survival mode, where they're, mind puts more importance and significance on, protecting us from threats first.
In a real life threatening situation, this can help you.
But in the case of most people's worries, anxieties and stresses. There is no real genuine threat.
Yet, the get stuck at high levels of stress and anxiety, which prevents them from tapping into and making the most of their true inner potential.
Your mind is a very powerful tool and super biological computer, that is capable of many amazing things.
But, it can also be your own worst enemy.
Meet the two, you's
There are two parts to you and your thought processes.
First, you have, the physical objective and critical you, who basis everything on your physical conditioning and negative programming.
And then there is the spiritual you, that knows how worthy, capable, smart and powerful you really are.
The physical side of you, represents your fears, and worries. It protects you from any perceived threats, both real and imagined.
The spiritual you, is what is known as the nonphysical part of you or the larger, wiser and all knowing part of you.
The spiritual you, is a powerful but invisible force, that is always present and trying to help you, follow your passions and unlock your true potential.
The spiritual part of you doesn’t, worry about the physical things, like threats and danger. The spiritual part of, who always knows and wants, what is best for you.
The spiritual you also, knows you have no boundaries or limitations, it represents your intelligence, intuition, memory and creativity.
The primary job of the inner and spiritual you is to push you to do the things that gives you joy, pleasure and all the things that makes you feel fulfilled.
In a sense. We have two sets of thought processes.
Our physical thoughts and idea's are based on our experiences and conditioning.
This is the voice of the fearful, self critical, self defeating and self sabotaging you.
Whilst the spiritual you, encourages you to follow, your passions and desires come from your spirit, which tries to nudge you into engaging all the things and activities that you like doing.
When you're relaxed and grounded in the present, doing the things that you love, such as.
- Your hobbies
- Art, painting, photography, crafts
- Working on your goals,
- Learning new skills
- Being creative,
- Relaxing
- Having fun
Then this is the spiritual side of you, coming into play, and this is your true natural state of being.
The trouble with the physical side of you is.
It can attempt to keep you small, stuck and limited. The physical self, is more focused on trying to protect you or keep you guarded about what might go wrong.
The physical you, is more concerned with trying to safeguard you and protect you from, failing or avoiding all the pitfalls or the imaginary threats or things that could go wrong.
The physical you, will present to you, what it thinks, you need to hear or be aware of.
But sometimes we spend so much time focused on our worries and problems, that we fail to see other alternatives, options and better choices.
Our physical self, is so intent on trying to protect us, that we more often than not, fail to take a view at the bigger picture.
On the other hand. The spiritual you, will see things through a positive lens, and it will try and steer you to open up and unlock all you true inner potential.
The spiritual you, already knows that you're smart enough and capable enough, and it wants to awaken you, to all the good things that you can have, be or do.
So you can spend more time on doing the good things that makes life worth living.
It wants you to follow your passion and do all the things that will empower, inspire and keep you feeling calm, happy and balanced.
Do you trust, all of your beliefs?
What you do or become, depends a lot on your belief systems. Because you belief systems will determine your decisions, idea's and choices.
And, the secret to whether you live a happy, fulfilled and successful life. All comes down to your belief systems and the choices that you make.
In the case of most people. Some of their beliefs are outdated, inaccurate and limiting.
Most of our beliefs aren't even our own, or they are hindering us, rather than helping or supporting us. Yet we hang onto them, and even worse,
We often allow them to negatively influence or desires to change and grow, without trying to change them, question them or challenge them.
Without the right beliefs. We don't take the actions that are necessary to bring us more success and fulfillment.
You inherited, most of your beliefs from your parents, society and other authority figures as a child.
What we think is logic or wisdom, is often our limited and inherited beliefs and conditioning, that are acting as an over protective, inner security guard.
The real truth is. You posses more power, talent and potential, than your every day physical and corrupted mind, could ever possibly, begin to imagine.
To tap into your true creativity and to find the genius you that lives inside you.
Then all you have to do, is to relax and ground yourself in the peace and flow, of the present moment, and keep your mind focused, on what you want.
The more you learn to relax. The more you will unlock your creative abilities and talents.
Combine this, with the desire to keep on learning, grow and taking inspired action.
And there will be nothing, that will be able to stop you or hold you back.
