We hold many beliefs in and around various aspects of our life, of people, of situations and in particular of ourselves. We may consciously be aware of some of these beliefs, however many are set deep within our subconscious mind. We often respond automatically to life situations. This we do depending on our beliefs about what you are experiencing, in any particular moment in time.
A belief is only an opinion, however most people seem to think a belief to be a truth. A truth that most have not tested the validity of. Many do not pay attention to their thoughts, let alone whether or not what they believe in is true. Deep within our subconscious minds are our belief systems that we no longer question the validity of.
We believe that what we ‘see’ is reality, the real world. However we are ‘seeing’ our world through our particular and personal perceptive; our judgements, our prejudices, our bias, our values, our impressions, our interpretations.
“There is no reality only perception”….. Dr Phil McGraw
Are you paying attention to your thoughts to discover your beliefs? They are the true indicators of what you are attracting into your life. The mind is where you formulate your ongoing thought patterns? Will you, wanting financial abundance, manifest this into reality if you believe, for some reason, that there is not enough wealth in the world to go around? What you think and believe in is your perceived reality. A reality/illusion created from your beliefs. Whether there is truth in your belief or not, it is enough that you believe in it. Hence, it is important to discover your many beliefs. Then test them to discover their validity in truth and value to you in your life.
“The understanding usually developed is nothing more that a ‘belief’ which means nothing at all. The only belief that is of any value to anyone is a belief that has been put to the test and demonstrated to be a fact; then it’s no longer a belief but has a living Truth.”
Charles F Hannel.
