Yesterday I attended a workshop on limiting beliefs. It was a great reminder of the incredible power our subconscious mind has in shaping our reality. Think of those core beliefs we absorb as children and later become the autopilot that unwillingly drives our lives. Our view of the world.

But how can we chage those beliefs? The intention to change a limiting belief is like planting a seed in your life—but that alone isn’t enough. The subconscious only responds to repetition, to images and symbols, to positive language (it is literal so it doesn’t understand negative sentences, humor or irony), and to the emotion that goes with all of that.

We have to nurture that seed by building a new thought habit ( through visualisation and repetition) and pairing it with the elevated emotion we want to experience. Then start behaving, and especially watching our language, in a coherent way to match the new belief.

The story we tell ourselves—and how it makes us feel—shapes our reality far more than we realize.

The possibilities are endless. The question is: What new beliefs do we dare to hold and sustain over time?
