Overcoming Limiting Beliefs - Invisible Fences Forces That Hold You Back
Overcoming Limiting Beliefs -
Invisible Fences Forces That Hold You Back
Hello!
The topic in this video is well worth spending some time with yourself on. I feel so strongly about this that the past five days worth of suggested “starting” points in our posts will be wasted time without starting here. I would love to suggest the book “The Four Agreements” by Don Miguel Ruiz as an additional resource. Man did it change my life.
Ok, so why a “starting point”? We must first determine where our belief system came from to understand if these same beliefs resonate with where we are now or if they ever did. The desire for more out of life is present, although when we feel kept down we can’t figure it out so we get frustrated and discouraged and keep living the SAME life with the same limiting beliefs in ourselves. Understanding our conditioning as a child IS where we start.
The website Britannica's definition of conditioning is a behavioral process whereby a response becomes more frequent...as a result of reinforcement, with reinforcement typically being a stimulus or reward for the desired response.
As mentioned in this video, after two or three times of receiving the pain of the shock collar stimulus the dog “thinks” before attempting the deed that results in the shock. His Master, pleased with his behavior, rewards the dog with touch, words of praise or a treat. Here is the desired response that the dog is being conditioned to act on.
As children, every day at home, in school and on TV we were being told what is an acceptable way to live. By who’s standards, the standards of the family members, teachers, and religious figures passed down from five generations before? And the stimulus received enforced what we now think and how we act. The majority of our lives are spent trying to please someone so we don't feel the displeasure of the punishment, fear or rejection. Ruiz calls this the domestication of humans, where we create our whole beliefs system.
Don’t blame your parents, that will only keep you stagnant. What we at Lifestyle Creators are asking you to do is ask yourself why do you have your current beliefs system, where did it come from. Then we wish you the courage to challenge your own beliefs. Now you know it is a “programming” that is causing you to “see” yourself a certain way that quite possibly is holding you back from who you truly are not just who you can be.
Ruiz says, “the human is the only animal on earth that pays a thousand times for the same mistake, due to our powerful memory.”
Liberate yourself from the invisible yet powerful influences, the fences built of your early childhood.
