As children, we’re often told what to believe and/or feel. We don’t have much choice in what we believe. But as adults, that’s not true. No one can actually make us believe anything without our consent. This should prompt us to examine how we’re processing what we believe.

That’s why I feel it’s important to evaluate what you believe and what influences those beliefs. For example, what from your past might be tainting what you believe now? What thoughts or beliefs are left over from your past? Let’s talk about what you believe and when to change it.

“It’s very difficult to make decisions that go against our core beliefs, how we understand the world, how we understand ourselves. Right? It’s like paddling upstream. And so the easier place to start is to identify those beliefs and start to loosen them, start to change them, start to imagine how you would behave if you believed the opposite, if you believed something different.” – Dr. Sara DillWhat You’ll Learn
