You can’t change your past, you can’t remove your memories either, that’s not the way your mind works but everybody can improve their future.
Who you are today was determined by who you were yesterday.
Your world revolves around the perception you have of yourself. If you beat yourself up over decisions or events from your past, your future will never change.
Only when you learn to accept everything was meant to happen exactly the way it happened will you be in a position to change your future.
If you don’t learn to like who you are today, you will not like who you will become tomorrow.
“Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future.” ~Oscar Wilde
“I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it.” ~Charles R. Swindoll.
“Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you have power over instead of craving control over the things you don’t.” ~Anon
“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.” Dr. Seuss.
“You can’t control other people but you can control how you react to them.” ~Anon
One day, you will listen to somebody who’s deliberately trying to insult you, and you will realise they are the people who need help, not you.
Now, if we applied the same theory to your future, the only thing holding you back is your self-limiting beliefs. They anchor you to your past.
As you eliminate your self-limiting beliefs you release all the anchors holding you back from the future you desire, the quicker you remove the beliefs the faster the changes will happen in your life. Just like the universe itself you will expand and grow as a person because nothing is holding you back anymore.
Some of the most self-limiting beliefs are;
You’re not good enough.
You’re insecure about your body.
You’re not clever enough.
You’re not liked.
You haven’t got the time.
You’re too poor.
Nobody will listen to you.
You’re not important.
You’re afraid of failing.
You’re family are holding you back.
All self-limiting beliefs are learned as you grow through life, some of the beliefs you inherited from your parents and siblings, while others are learned from people who are fighting their own insecurities. The one thing all these self-limiting beliefs have in common is, they are only thoughts which you can control with some practice and then alter them to suit you. Each of the empowering beliefs below are the same as the ones above, they’re just written in a positive instead of negative mindset.
Some of the most empowering beliefs are;
You’re good enough for the people who matter.
You’re body is perfect today and will be more perfect tomorrow.
You know everything you need to know right now.
You have all the time you need.
You’re liked by the right people.
You’ve got all the money you need.
The right people will hear you at the right time.
The only failing in life is not trying.
Your family will support every decision you make.
You are the center of your universe, don’t allow your self-limiting beliefs hold you back from becoming the best possible version of you.
