Hidden beliefs that hold you back

Your mind is a slippery snake

It can move so fast that you don't notice its tricks

One of those is a collection of beliefs that have built up during your life

Do any of these feel familiar?

• 'I don't know what to do'

• 'People should not lie'

• 'I feel your energy'

• 'There's not enough time'

• 'I missed my chance'

• 'I need to understand'

• 'I need to know my life's purpose'

• 'I don't belong'

• 'I need to be certain'

If you resonate with any, do they serve you, or hinder you?

Anytime you experience a situation that triggers a familiar, unenjoyable feeling, enquire

Is an unexamined belief stepping in and taking over?

Write it down and hold it up to the light of your attention.

Is it true?

Can you know without a doubt that it's true?

Can you reframe it? (Flip it 180)

i.e. 'I need to understand' flips to 'I don't need to understand' or 'I need to be confused'

Is that a more accurate thought that represents the truth of the situation in the moment?

Does it feel more authentic to you? More peaceful? Accepting?

It doesn't mean you might understand in the next second. That's possible.

Have a great day
