Letting Go of Your False Beliefs

We get so close to reaching our goals and dreams to the point we can see it and feel it about to happen and then, “pouf”, we self-sabotage ourselves because of our perceived false beliefs about ourselves.

You may feel guilty, unworthy or think you are only “wishful thinking” that YOU could have it all the way you dream it to be. If you are feeling this way, you are allowing your false beliefs to step up to the forefront and you sabotage yourself from reaching your goals and dreams.

Our false beliefs are beliefs of ourselves we have picked up from past incidents, our culture, jumping to conclusions of events or misleading information from others. We allow our fears to become prevalent because we are worried what others would think. We believe we can read other people’s minds and think they would think of us as an idiot, unworthy or incapable because it is what we fear. Those fears were born out of our false beliefs of ourselves.

False beliefs could be wrapped up in emotional attachments or our personal identity regardless of what the true facts are. False beliefs can be all jumbled up in our minds and may not be clear as to what they exactly are. We need to go beyond our “thoughts” of ourselves to get to the heart of the matter.

We must first identify those false beliefs. To start, try to pinpoint some of the moments in time when some of the false beliefs first started to take hold in you. Just by identifying these beliefs, it will start to facilitate change. By chipping away each false belief, the others will lose their stronghold on you.

By determination, liquefying the false stories you bought into, being positive and changing your thoughts, you will begin to stop believing in those false beliefs and let go of them once and for all and you WILL then move forward with your goals and dreams.

“There is only one cause of unhappiness: the false beliefs you have in your head, beliefs so widespread, so commonly held, that it never occurs to you to question them.” ~ Antony de Mello
