The power of self-belief

It's far too easy to give up on your dreams when you doubt yourself. Often these doubts are the result of your own insecurities, or from taking on the opinions and beliefs of others and making them your own. The modern world is designed to make you believe you can have anything you want. This is relatively true, however, the missing ingredient is often self belief that you can achieve something you have never experienced for yourself.

When you stop and think about life, why should it be more plausible for one person to achieve a desire than it is for someone else. Often we see the end result of a person's success, without fully appreciating or understanding the work that it has taken to reach this success. We assume it was easy for them and thus much too hard for us to achieve. This is why autobiographies are so important to read. They often give us an insight into the planning and dedication that has led to success. Actors are a great example of this. Naomi Watts was struggling for years, working in cafe's etc. Despite having incredible contacts in the industry, it took dedication and self belief to trust that eventually she would get her lucky break. If she had thrown in the towel a few years earlier, who knows where she would have ended up in her career. There are countless stories like this.

The keys to achieving your desires are:
  • Believing 100% that you have the ability and right to achieve anything you put your mind to
  • Setting out a plan to make it happen
  • Working through your plan - unwaveringly
  • Reassessing your plan and tweaking it along the way to find what's working and what's not
  • Taking opportunities as they arise
If you simply trust that as humans we can achieve the most incredible things, then you have no reason NOT to trust that you too can achieve the greatness you desire and aspire to achieve.

Finding joy in the fortune of others

Often we find it difficult to be happy for ple who have things we really want ($, love, family, success) because it reminds us of what we want but don't have. However, what others have has no impact on your ability to have it too. By focussing on being happy for others and then trusting that you can have it too, you relax and enjoy their success.

You may want children and feel upset every time you see a pregnant woman because it reminds you of what you're missing. However, if you trust the law of attraction (Abrahram - Jerry & Ester Hicks), you'll see if you can find happiness in the joy each pregnant woman feels, you bring yourself closer to the vibration of being pregnant yourself. One thing you know for sure, focussing on jealousy and anger does not bring you closer to having the things you really desire. Find more inspiration at www.happylife.net.au
