Universal Law of Belief

Introduction

The Universal Law of Belief states that we Do Not Believe what we see, we rather See what we have already decided to Believe. This Universal Law is a foundational law of life to the extent that without wholeheartedly “believing” that something can become a part of your reality, than consequently it will always remain out of your reach – no matter how desperately you may want it in the moment. Unfortunately life doesn’t give us what we Want, but rather what we Intend with Feeling – whether that intention lies at a conscious or unconscious level of awareness.

What Are Beliefs?

Beliefs are built upon a mix of fact and fictitious perspectives we have about life, ourselves and others.

Beliefs are built upon prejudice. When we prejudge something, we are ineffectively reaching premature conclusions about the events and circumstances that are directing our attention. In many instances, we reach conclusions despite evidence to the contrary, or despite our best efforts to make logical sense of the situation at hand.

Beliefs are in essence filters of reality and experience. They filter-out of our sensory perspective anything that simply doesn’t align with our psychological programming. And consequently we don’t see reality as it is, but rather how we perceive it to be.

Beliefs are based on incomplete and biased sensory perspectives that have been conditioned and programmed over time through our memories of past events, circumstances and experience. These memories that we BELIEVE are real, are in essence only interpretations we made about reality at the time. Moreover, these interpretations of Reality have been filtered over and over again through our Belief Systems over the years, and have taken on a life of their own; reinterpreting our life experiences in a multitude of unique and creative ways that have nothing to do with the reality of those events.

Beliefs are nothing more than interpretations of events, circumstances and life experience. Our emotional state, frame of mind, social condition, and other factors all affect how we will interpret the events and circumstances of our lives. If for instance we were to experience an emotional breakdown while certain events and circumstances took place around us, than our beliefs of those events and circumstances would be very different than if we were to be in a positive frame of mind at the time.

Beliefs consistently reject any information that is inconsistent or contradictory in nature. For this very reason it is extremely difficult to convince someone of your opinion or perspectives if they have already developed a strong alternative belief about the information you are providing them with. The more emotional involvement is associated with a belief, than the stronger the conviction, and the more steadfast this person’s perspective is going to be. As a result, they will reject any and all information, no matter how logical it may seem, if it isn’t consistently aligned with their conditioned patterns of believing.

Beliefs determine the intensity of our emotional experiences in relation to people, events and circumstances. In other words, your beliefs provide you with a set of pre-programmed fundamental rules and emotional reactions that you Launch when certain Anchors are activated within your environment (such as people and circumstances) triggering specific and conditioned emotional responses.

Beliefs determine how we behave on a daily basis. We consistently act in accordance to the beliefs we have about the World, Ourselves, Others, Events and Circumstances. These are pre-programmed responses and reactions that we have conditioned ourselves to accept without question. And the longer we allow these Conditioned Responses to perpetuate within our psyche, than the greater difficulty we will have in transforming these patterns for the better.

Finally, Beliefs are nothing more than just Illusions of Reality.

You do not believe what you see, you rather see what you have already decided to believe.

Self-Limiting Beliefs

Self-Limiting Beliefs are simply Beliefs that you have about yourself, others, circumstances and the world around you that limit your life in some way. In most instances these beliefs are just interpretations you have made about reality that work against the Goals and Objectives you seek to achieve in your life.

Our Self-Limiting Beliefs make up the fundamental flaws of our psychology. They limit our Opportunities, Behaviors and Actions in so many ways at an unconscious level of awareness, that it is frightening to think about the possible long-term impact they are having upon our lives.

Your Self-Limiting Beliefs undermine your ability to grow as a psychologically healthy human being. They essentially paralyze your ability to think effectively, to make sensible decisions and to take proactive actions. If you are finding yourself fighting through procrastination, stress, worry, anxiety or fear; than these are sure signs that your Self-Limiting Beliefs are dictating your life’s reality and ultimate destiny.

Your Self-Limiting Beliefs will hold you back from living the life you desire to experience, and will dramatically limit your potential as a Human Being in so many ways that it is very difficult to fathom the true extent of their impact on your life.

Your Self-Limiting Beliefs consistently encourage the development fear, self-doubt and lead to patterns of emotional self-sabotage.

Are my current belief patterns working for me or against me?

Mindset Strategies

This section of the IQ Matrix Mind Map discusses some effective Mindset Altering Strategies and techniques you can immediately utilize to help you overcome the Self-Limiting Beliefs that are currently ruling your life and creating your destiny.

What to DO

Do reject your limiting beliefs by no longer accepting the control that they have over your life.

Do believe with feeling. Your feelings and emotions will give life to your beliefs. Therefore cultivate your Empowering Beliefs by sprinkling them with intense “Feeling” and you will progressively transform these Beliefs into Unshakable Convictions that will move you towards the attainment of your goals and objectives.

Do model the beliefs of successful and proactive people. They have attained their current level of success because of the beliefs that are driving and dictating their patterns of behavior. Your objective is to find out what drives these people, what beliefs and convictions they cultivate within their psyche, and model these patterns within your own mind.

Do challenge the self-limiting beliefs that are currently holding you back from the life you want to experience. Simply begin by Questioning their validity and existence, and resolve that you will no longer accept them in your life.

Do develop your natural talents and abilities by involving yourself in activities that will help instill new Empowering Belief patterns within your psyche. These new belief patterns will spread like wildfire and affect all other aspects of your life.

What NOT to DO

Don’t jump to rash conclusions as a result of predetermined patterns of thinking and believing. Consider that you may probably not yet have the full picture of the events and circumstances under question.

Don’t accept the self-limiting beliefs that are currently dictating your life’s decisions and actions.

Don’t settle for less than your best. If you are taking shortcuts or not giving your best at any moment in time, than this is a sure sign that you have a set of limiting beliefs that are currently dictating your life’s decisions and actions.

Don’t prejudge possible problems. Consider the possibility that problems can at times be Opportunities in Disguise. However, they will always be “problems” if you see them in the light of your own limiting patterns of believing.

Don’t prejudge personal potential and ability, which could be lying dormant within the recesses of your mind. Unless you push your limits, and think beyond what you “believe” you are capable of, than you will never really know how far you can possibly go.

Don’t prejudge other people or circumstances because life’s too short to jump to rash conclusions about things you don’t really know.

Don’t prejudge until obtained all relevant knowledge, perspectives, understandings and information about other people, events and circumstances. Until you know all there is to know that is relevant to the present person or situation, than you really don’t know much at all.

Don’t underestimate available solutions and opportunities that may be hiding just out of view or just outside the invisible boundary of your limiting patterns of believing.

Transformational Analysis

The final Branch of this IQ Matrix Mind Map presents a few Transformational Analysis Questions that can help you take advantage of the Universal Law of Belief and utilize it to better your personal life experience.

Ask yourself the following set of questions to help you overcome your self-limiting belief patterns:

What self-limiting beliefs are currently holding me back from the life I want to live?

How do others view these self-limiting beliefs? What other perspectives are there?

What would I do if there were no limits to my money, talent, time, potential and ability?

What would I do if I knew I could not fail?

What must I now believe to achieve my ambitions, dreams, goals and objectives?

Final Thoughts

The Universal Law of Belief is no doubt a transforming principle of life that – if used correctly – will allow you to attract what you want most. If on the other hand it is utilized to promote your Self-Limiting Beliefs, than it will consequently hold you back from the attainment of the reality you desire to experience on a daily basis.
