We all have beliefs.

‍

Our truths come from our beliefs.

‍

When we believe something is true, it is for us.

‍

These truths then shape our world.

‍

For we know that they are true.

‍

At least, that is the way we live our lives.

‍

Believing the truths that are based on our beliefs.

‍

Yet how often do we take the time to look at these beliefs?

‍

Do these beliefs still feel true for us?

‍

Many of our beliefs are formed a long time ago.

‍

Based on different situations and different experiences.

‍

When we examine them we might find that we were different people back then.

‍

And that since then we have had different experiences that might show us that those beliefs are no longer serving us.

‍

Or even true.

‍

If we are so sure that our beliefs are true all the time we never stop to take a look at them.

‍

To reconsider them.

‍

So when we actually do take the time to look at them, we can be quite surprised at what we believe in.

‍

And how it has shaped our lives.

‍

We often can clearly see how those beliefs created the actions that have created our lives.

‍

When our lives are not what we want, perhaps we can reexamine our beliefs to see which ones have created the lives we are leading.

‍

Our beliefs around love, money, career, or health can be quite revealing.

‍

Love is not safe.

‍

Money is hard to come by.

‍

Friends will disappoint you.

‍

These beliefs can also be quite limiting.

‍

Changing those limiting beliefs is not easy.

‍

For we have lived with them for so many years, it can take a huge effort to shift them.

‍

Or at least shift the actions we take based on those limiting beliefs.

‍

Our actions, our choices, create the live we are living today.

‍

So many of them are based on beliefs that we formed decades ago and may not even believe anymore.

‍

Is it not worth it to take the time to reevaluate what we believe in?

‍

Are their limiting beliefs that you live with that are no longer serving you?
