Another gem from Brian Tracy’s Success Mastery Academy is the use of affirmations. That is, using your self-talk to make behaviour changes. It works like this, a little guide that is a combination of the wisdom from Brian Tracy and Jamie Smart:
1) Identify a limiting belief you’d like to change.
We all have them, a belief, or a rule about the universe we live in that stops us doing something we really want to do, such as:
- I can’t start my own business
- I’ll always be overweight
- I don’t ever have enough money
- I can’t be happy because I’m manic depressive
The problem with these beliefs is that everytime we say them to ourselves, our unconscious mind hears them and does everything to help it be true. Your unconscious is incredibly helpful and trusts that what you say is what you want.. it can’t filter good from bad affirmations. (more…)
