LEARN HOW TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE BELIEFS


We encounter or come across different events. These events bring new experiences. They also educate us with knowledge to derive meaning from these events. Can we interpret these events? The meaning they carry and the lesson we should derive is left to us. Nobody can force us to deduce or derive the meaning we should carry.

If the meaning derived is negative then it leaves negative impact on our mind. It weakens us or challenges our natural defense system, limiting our success is whatever thing we do.

What is required at that time is to do serious introspection of our belief system. We have to check all our positive and negative belief one by one because that is the time we need to change them. If we observe positive belief which needs strengthening then we have to strengthen them or if we have negative belief then we have to question the reference experience. The references on which they stand or the certainty associated with it, starts crumbling thus shaking them from their core. Ultimately if we start questioning their existence in our life, they become weak.

Possibly it takes longer time for those beliefs which have longer permanence in our subconscious mind or if we have taken beliefs from other references, then due to generalization they become pervasive. Still more there could be beliefs which might have turned personal due to our helplessness to remove them.

If we believe that this is temporary problem and would pass soon then sooner or later, our efforts starts bearing fruits and over a period of time, we become achievers. Whatever type or belief pattern these negative beliefs we carry in our subconscious mind, the only way to conquer them is to question their validity in our lives.

1) If these beliefs don’t give any financial gain then what is the point in
carrying them?
2) If these beliefs don’t give any confidence then what is the point in
following them?
3) If we don’t give up these negative beliefs then the loss will be heavy.
4) Will these negative beliefs bring emotional stability in my life?
5) If I don’t give up these beliefs then it might bring tremendous loss to my
loved ones.

There are also ways to strengthen positive beliefs or they need to be strengthened because these beliefs keep power to change our lives.

Once the change occurs or if we notice change in our behavior pattern, then it is important to reinforce the change which should last life long. Unless we take precautions to oversee the change, we may go back to old habits depending upon how chronic the belief is.

There are many techniques to remove old beliefs and reinforce the new beliefs. Many of us might not be aware of these techniques which may include self hypnotism, Auto suggestion, and psychological therapies. Some of the therapies take longer time and some take very short time. Each therapy needs skill to understand our own mind and values and beliefs attached to it. What is important is whatever time we devote to understand and analyze them; the change they bring in should upgrade our lives and should empower us with unlimited success and happiness.
