Do you think you get in life what you want or what you believe you want? In fact, is there a difference between the two; between believing and wanting?

I would like you to pause and think about that for a while. Do you get the things in your life, material or otherwise, because you want them or because you believe you should have them?

Is there a difference between the two?

Looking at it from another angle, do you believe what you see or see what you believe? How do you see your world? Do you see it through the way you want to see it, or the way you believe it is?

You see your world through what I call your “beliefs eyes”. What you believe is what you see. What you believe is what you get and what you believe is who you become. For example, if you believe the world is full of cruel people, then that’s what you will see, a world full of cruel people. If, on the other hand, you believe the world has plenty of kind and considerate people you will see masses of them.

It is evident that your beliefs play a tremendous part in how you live your life and how you see your life to be. So it is important for you to ask where do your beliefs come from.

Your beliefs are created, controlled and influenced by your thoughts; the thoughts that you have or those you were told as a youngster growing up from everyone around you.

If you think the same thing over and over again, you will eventually believe that thought. For example, if you consistently thought rich people are greedy, you will, in time, develop this belief that rich men are greedy.

Over time, this belief gains momentum and power, and becomes engraved in stone. It becomes a core belief, a belief that is the foundation of how you see rich people and what you also think about money.

So, let’s say you now want to make more money, and you try very hard to get that raise or increase your sales, more than likely you will not achieve your goal because your beliefs stop you; they do not want you to be rich.

Why?

Because you think rich people are greedy, remember?

So your beliefs will do whatever it takes to stop you from joining the ‘greedy bunch’. Your beliefs will defiantly say, “Hey, you believe rich people are greedy, so you definitely don’t want to be part of that greedy bunch. Stay clear of them. You’re a nice guy. Stay that way.”

What happens, you’ll never be rich.

If you want to have more money and be rich, you will need to change that core belief.

You will need to have a new self-enhancing belief, such as: “Rich men are kind and generous.” Otherwise your limiting belief will forever stand in your way. If you do somehow land with lots of money, such as an inheritance, your limiting belief will kick in and make sure you get rid of that money quickly and put you right back to where you started from, with no or very little money.

So, does it matter what you believe? You bet!
