"Your beliefs determine your reality. If you want to change your life, start by changing your beliefs.” ~ John Assaraf.
Are your beliefs set? It's not a rhetorical question. It’s an important question that you should take the time to think about if you want to be more, do more or have more in your life.
Are your beliefs set & can develop powerful ones? First understand stand this
You Weren't Born With Any Beliefs
Were you born with beliefs? As John Assaraf puts it, did you come into this world believing in how good you were, how much you'd achieve, or whether you were smart enough from the moment you took your first breath?
The answer is "no." you were not.
Think about this: If someone kept telling you that you were bad at everything, over & over again what would you start to believe?
What if they continued to tell you that you were amazing and capable of accomplishing anything? You would surely start to believe that too.
You see what you constantly hear, see, and do gets absorbed and imprinted, creating fixed beliefs, then those fixed beliefs shape your create your reality and the world you live in. These beliefs, whether empowering or disempowering, become personal truths & the way which you see the world.
In basic terms, What you reinforce becomes.
Beliefs are reinforced patterns that begin to develop at a very young age. Some are beneficial, some are draining, and some are downright ugly.
So, what lens are you viewing the world through?
As John Assaraf put it. “Whatever you believe about yourself on the inside, is what will manifest on the outside."
Want More?
If you want more wealth, become aware of the beliefs that are in your way from the flow of wealth in your life.
If you wish you were happier, ask yourself where you got the belief that you are not happy and remember that happiness is with and around you right now.
If you want a loving partner, take a close look at what you think and feel about yourself, such as your worthiness and your self-image.
So where do you begin…
In the video, John says that our beliefs are nothing more than reinforced patterns, and we and we have the power change at any given time.
Develop Your Powerful Beliefs
Identify Your Current Beliefs
To change anything in your life, you first have to acknowledge it. Once you know where you stand, only then can you move forward. If you're unsure of where you are, how can you set a new destination? Be honest, be true, and know where you are. Don’t judge it—just see it as it is. It’s nothing more than a belief passed down to you, and you have the power and wisdom to make a shift.
Here are 3 foundational step you can take to identify your beliefs:
Identify your limiting beliefs: In a calm, relaxed state.
Ask yourself: In what area of my life am I not achieving what I truly desire?
Be honest: What beliefs do I hold about this area, both about myself and external factors? (Write it all down!)
Analyse Your Beliefs
It is recommend that you analyse your beliefs regularly… It will be like mental house cleaning. The truth is you can do anything, but you’ve got to believe it first. Without belief, it is not going to happen. Why? Because the thoughts you have cause you take action or not take action, and this creates the result in your life. You’ve got to believe it can be!
Do you really?
Now, take a moment and ask yourself, do any of these limiting beliefs ring true for you?
The more honest you are with yourself, the easier it will be to break free.
Take the time to be yourself and see what unfolds.
"I just don't feel good enough."
"I'll never achieve success."
"I don't think I deserve happiness."
"I can't change my situation."
"I'm too old or too young to start something new."
"I'm am failure and always will be"
"Money is hard to earn especially for me"
"I am not totally not smart enough."
"I don't have enough skills, for this "
"What will others think of me?"
And many more
Do you ring true to you? If so, how can you create more empowering beliefs that will lift you up rather than drag you down?
Dive Deeper Than What Meets The Eye
Now, think about the beliefs you've identified, or any other disempowering belief that resonates with you.
As you reflect on these beliefs, ask yourself: What is the "because" statement that follows?
"I can't because..."
"My life can never change because..."
"I am not capable because..."
The phrase that follows "because" reinforces the belief even more. It becomes the evidence you use to justify why you believe it to be true. These statements are limiting you in many ways.
If you’re truly committed and ready to make a belief shift, now is the time. Will it be easy? Truth be told, no. But with the right process, it becomes far easier.
The real question is: Can you transform your beliefs to get unstuck? Yes. But will you?
Flip Your Old Beliefs Daily
Now is your time to flip & replay your belief into empowering ones:
From: "I am not good enough."
To: "I am learning and growing every day."
From: "I will never be successful."
To: "I have the potential to achieve success."
From: "I don’t deserve happiness."
To: "I am worthy of happiness and fulfillment."
From: "I can’t change my circumstances."
To: "I have the power to change my circumstances."
From: "I am too old/too young to start something new."
To: "I can start something new at any age."
From: "I will always fail at this."
To: "Every setback is an opportunity to learn and improve."
From: "Money is hard to come by."
To: "I can create financial abundance in my life."
From: "I am not smart enough."
To: "I have the ability to learn and acquire new skills."
From: "What will others think of me?"
To: "I choose to focus on my own journey rather than others' opinions."
From: "I am stuck."
To: "I am capable of overcoming challenges and achieving my goals."
But know this: the key isn’t just saying these things once; it’s about consistently repeating these new empowering beliefs.
Write them down and recite them in front of a mirror every day for the next 100 days. Yes, 100 days, to let these new beliefs take root.
Why? Because it takes anywhere from 66 to 365 days for a new habit (or belief) to fully set in. It’s not a question of whether this will work—it will. The question is, will you do what’s required, or will you continue standing on the edge of your potential, limited and stuck?
Remember, when you hear something repeatedly, you start to believe it—whether positive or negative. The same applies when you hear yourself saying something over and over again; it becomes your new truth. So, why not craft beliefs that empower you rather than limit you?
The more you hear it, feel it, and see it, the more you’ll believe it.
Will you make the shift? Consider this: What’s worse—continuing to live exactly as you are now, or committing to becoming the best version of yourself?
Now it time to create empowered version of you
