Playing the victim

Today I was very annoyed as a special friend of mine told me that I am still playing the victim. I thought I had overcome that with all my goals and ideas and actions over the last half year, but it seems this type of thing, this pattern of mine is buried very, very deep in my thought patterns.

I was very happy he was my mirror in this as he showed me a very bad behavior pattern I seem to have. I can’t recall right now what exactly happened, what I said and what he mirrored back to me, but I was sure he was right and I am sure I want to change that, change it into some positive pattern.

Recently I am starting to realize that it is our belief system that defines us and the event today showed me something like that we are continuously doing or saying or thinking things that confirm our beliefs. But what if the belief is wrong? And I know many of my beliefs are wrong, so that’s also why many things in my life are not as I want them to be.

So yes, I will put some more information and maybe some exercises or tools or something about belief in this site as I am starting to believe that success or anything else starts with the beliefs that you have.

So what are your beliefs and are they supporting success or not?

An exercise I have in mind now is writing ten beliefs down now, state for each if it is supportive for success or not. Rewrite each belief that is non-supportive so it becomes supportive and read them aloud once a day. I did this some time ago and it was really working and as far as i remember I also mentioned this earlier already, but that doesn’t matter.

My fault

This morning I realized that one of my beliefs is that all the things I consider wrong in my life are my fault. And I realized that that belief may be wrong. That it might be possible, or is even likely that not everything that went wrong in my life is my fault.

A very weird experience, as I almost continuously feel an enormous pile of guilt based on that belief.

So what if I’m wrong.

What if you are wrong about a belief you may have, a belief that creates very bad feelings, a belief that leads nowhere, a belief that blocks the road, a belief that blocks everything good in your life and the life of others.

Belief

I’m still struggling why things are not yet as I want them to be, what stops me getting what I want, even though I think I am already doing a lot of things in the right direction.

I’m starting to believe(?!) that basically it’s all about belief, belief in what is possible, what can be. Next to this comes desire and faith, but belief may be the most essential.

Last night and also just now while reading again Think and Grow Rich I realized I have some big limited beliefs and it feels these are blocking me.

Last night I tried to make these limiting beliefs more visible as they are so hidden, seem to hide themselves in all kinds of thoughts that seem to be so logical, so obvious.

I started to re-read the book as I do believe like what is stated there that it takes no hard labor or hard work to achieve your goals and dreams and that may be one of my biggest limiting beliefs: think that I need to work long and hard to ‘get there’.

So what are your limiting beliefs?
