Limiting Beliefs: How Are They Ruining Your Life?

What exactly is a limiting belief?

A limiting belief is a negative thought or feeling about you and what you are capable of accomplishing.

Everyone has an endless tape of “self-talk” running through their head.  I’m sure you know what I mean.  This tape is the narrator of your life.  It is constantly commenting on everything that you and everyone else are doing.

The problem is that your internal commentator isn’t really all that nice.  He seems to find fault often and is constantly judging you.

How often do you think or feel the following?

• Boy, that was stupid.
• I didn’t do that good enough.
• No wonder nobody loves me.
• I’ll never get that job.
• I’m not smart enough.
• I look fat or ugly.
• Ugh, what was I thinking?

All of these thoughts and feelings are ruining your life.  The beliefs you carry determine how successful you will be in love, money, and in life.

Many limiting beliefs keep you “stuck”.  You are scared to try, to put yourself out in the world, or to meet new people.  Limiting beliefs keep you in terrible relationships and jobs that you don’t like.

The important thing to remember is that these thoughts and feelings can be changed.  Once you know that you have them, you can choose to believe something else.  You can choose to believe the truth.

The truth is that you are smart, beautiful, and perfect just the way you are.  I am very confident in telling you this.  Do you want to know why?

I know it’s true because God doesn’t make mistakes.
