Your stumbling blocks CAN shrink
We all have stumbling blocks. Those things in our lives that we always seem to get caught up on or that we believe about ourselves that keep us stuck. For example: “I am just too big in my hips- so I can’t wear that” or “I always feel so stupid when I speak up around my friends, and I don’t think they listen-so I will just keep quiet”
Coulombs Law (for those of you who like physics) states that like attracts like. What we focus on is what we attract. When we believe we are successful, beautiful, or engaging, then we will easily attract those things.
Imagine you are sitting around and listening to your thoughts that are saying, “Geez, you are such a loser. No wonder no one likes you.” So, in response you don’t call your friends, you don’t look around for anything fun to do. When a friend calls, you have already made up your mind subconsciously that she is just trying to be nice, but deep down doesn’t really think your that special. Maybe she just couldn’t find anyone else to hang out with.
It is all such a load of crap! And we do this all the time. We convince ourselves of crazy things, that could be related to a real circumstance that was painful, but that we let explode in our mind to a much bigger story.
To really get past your limiting beliefs, or your stumbling blocks, it takes a radical change in what you think and believe. Regardless of your current circumstance you can start to believe things can be different. Begin to picture yourself doing what you would like to do, wearing the kind of clothes you think would be great, or having the friends or job that you would love ot have. Think through what that would mean to you. How would you think about yourself with these things already happening in your life. Hang on to the answers you get- and start thinking and acting like it has already happened. Of course you would say yes to a friend that called to hang out. You are wonderful to be with!
