Ever heard the saying 'you are your own worst enemy?' Well, most of the time, it's true! If we hold belief's about ourselves that we're 'not good enough' or we don't have what it takes to succeed, that limiting belief will prevent us from doing exactly that, succeeding. But, sometimes these belief's have been there for so long, they've become entrenched, engrained in the way we think about ourselves and our personal 'self talk' is continually negative. The 'inner critic' inside us will continue to tell us, 'you know that you can't succeed at this, you've failed before and you'll always fail'. We generalise and distort the truth and come to inaccurate conclusions about ourselves.
So, how do we fix it? Here's a thought from the bible! Maybe you've never read it and don't think it might have much to say to you, but I've found it has some amazing ways of putting things that research and science now knows as fact. Try this on for size...
'Be transformed by the renewing of your mind' Romans 12.2
'For as a man thinks in his heart, so is he' Proverbs 23.7
The truth is, in order to transform the way we think about ourselves, we're going to need a consistent, frequent encounter with the truth, until eventually the lies we've believed about ourselves are replaced with the truth. This video is a very practical way of doing that and speaking these new belief's every day to enable us to see our attitude towards ourselves 'transformed'.
Want another bible verse for that? Alright then.....
'Death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat it's fruit' Proverbs 18.21
To your success!!!
