Does It Matter What Your Belief System Is?

It is now known that you see your world through what I call your "beliefs eyes". In other words, What you believe is what you see.

Should you believe that your world is full of cruel people, then that's what you will see - a world full of cruel people. However, if you believe the world has plenty of kind and considerate people, that is what you will see, a world amass with kind and considerate people.

If you want a better world for yourself, why not make it a point to believe in a better world?

To help you do that, let's consider where 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 to be true. As an example, if you consistently think rich people are a bunch of greedy thieves, you will, in time, develop this belief that rich men are greedy thieves.

Sooner or later, this belief gains huge momentum and power, and becomes engraved in stone. It becomes your core belief - a belief that is the foundation about 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'll not achieve your goal because your beliefs are stopping you; your beliefs do not want you to be rich.

Why?

Because you think rich people are a bunch of greedy thieves!

So your system of 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 and thieves, so you definitely don't want to be part of that bunch. Stay clear of them. You're a nice guy. Stay that way."

What happens? You'll never be rich no matter how hard and long you try.

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 system of belief, the system that you created knowingly or not, will forever stand in your way.

If you do somehow land with lots of money, such as an inheritance or the lottery, your belief system will kick in and make sure you get rid of that money quickly and put you right back to where you started from - no or very little money.

So, does it matter what your system of belief is? Absolutely. You bet!
