Are you being held back from success or getting what you want from life by your disbelief in yourself? How do you do this? These are two good questions. Our belief system, that is what we believe about ourselves, may be holding us back from a wonderful life. The sometimes seemingly small things we tell ourselves such as “I am not good enough”, “I only want enough to get by on”, or “I can’t do this” are all the ways in which our belief system can keep us from achieving success.

If we believe we are holding ourselves back in life, we need to change our self-doubts and the small messages we tell ourselves. It is simply a matter of changing the message from, for example, “I am not good enough” to “I deserve this”.  Another example of how we hold ourselves back is when we tell ourselves we only want enough to get by on and then somehow that is all we get. We are constantly behind in making payments. How do we change this? Start by figuring out how much we really need  to meet our financial needs and add in whatever extra we want, for example, “I want the finances to be financially independent”. “I will acquire the finances I need to take my family on a tropical vacation”.

Having said this I also want to caution that it is not enough just to say these things to ourselves, we need to also take action to get where we want to be.  Start off by setting some goals and write down what we want and how we intend to get there. If we keep believing in ourselves we will eventually get the prize we desire!
