Now I am going to share with you some insight. When I first started to understand and study the power of belief, I started doing amazing things. I didn’t understand how powerful I actually was until I understood what I was doing. When I started studying the power of belief this is when I started exceeding the goals that I had set out to do. Sometimes in life, we set some outrageous goals. We set goals for money, family, happiness; whatever it might me….We put some outrageous goals on ourselves. Sometimes creating goals creates a little stress and creates a little pressure. For some people it creates that anxiety feeling when your hears starts beating and you’re a little short of breath and your just like “oh my god what did I just do, and how am I going to achieve this, and I don’t know how, but I know I want this… and perhaps, if I say I want this, then I’m putting myself out there for potential disappointment and I’m scared… Sometimes you can get a little overwhelmed. I understand that, but in order for you to grow as a human being, you need to be able to stretch. Sometimes when you stretch, it will put a little bit of stress or tension or pressure, or anxiety on you. If it didn’t, you couldn’t grow. A muscle grows by lifting weights or putting stress or pressure on the muscle. Do it enough times in a row, consistently over a period of weeks or months and the muscle gets stronger. It is the same for the brain. The brain is a muscle too! Think about this, if it didn’t put stress, pressure, or anxiety on you, then you would be comfortable, right? IF you’re comfortable, you’re in your comfort zone. If you’re in your comfort zone, how in the world can you stretch and grow? Interesting point right? Let me put it to you this way.
I’ve been a slow reader my entire life. I didn’t realize that I could get better at reading just by reading more. The more I read, the better I get at it, the faster I get at it. The same thing happens with arm curls, working out, losing weight or stretching the mind. For most of us, we’ve been out of school for so long; we think we can’t learn anymore. The truth is, we never stop learning. Some people just put more emphasis on it than others. Those are usually the most successful people. Those are typically the richest people. Those are most likely the happiest people. Not always, I understand, but as a rule, that is most definitely the case. It is the same thing with business. If you are going to go and put stress and tension on your mind or your muscles, you have to be able to put some kind of anxiety, stress, or pressure on your personal growth…..to grow. Believe in the process and believe in yourself and go for it. You can reach your goals when you believe!
