Believe In Yourself…

The secret to success, wealth and happiness is to believe in yourself. You have all that you need to succeed. What you don’t have, you don’t need.

Do you want to be rich? Why are you not?

“Present moments are the perfect outcome of your past thoughts, states and actions. They are a gift to you to enable you to experience yourself and grow. Resisting and cursing the present only perpetuates its nature.”

- David Cameron, author, A Happy Pocket Full of Money.

Everything begins in the mind. Changing your mindset begins when you start thinking differently than the status quo. The human mind once it is set in motion is like a tsunami – it is unstoppable and impossible to imprison.

When the Wright Brothers invented the aeroplane, the common thinking at the time was that it was impossible for a human being to fly. They decided to challenge that thinking, and the rest, as we all know – is history.

Changing your mindset begins with believing in yourself. But it is also difficult to believe in yourself if you don’t believe in God. It has been observed that throughout history, people who were highly successful in their day were also deeply religious, and in one way or another, believed in a higher POWER, God.

Galileo Galilei, Sir Isaac Newton, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, The Wright Brothers, Andrew Carnegie, Albert Einstein, Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller etc. only to mention a few were all religious people. The reason for this is obvious – it gives you FAITH and the strength and purpose to go on, even when things get tough. And things do get tough, that I can guarantee you. Believing in God gives you reassurance that you are here for a purpose and not by accident. This gives meaning to life and the courage to go on, even when faced with life’s challenges.

The second reason why you should believe in God is that you cannot separate yourself from your Source of life – to do that you’d have to stop breathing. God is spirit and eternal and apart from the fact that we have a physical body, we are also spiritual beings directly connected with the eternal God.

Why do you think human beings are the only creatures on planet earth with the ability to create things, to build things such as computers, motorcars, bridges, skyscrapers, airplanes and rockets?

That we have the same creative characteristics, behavior and likeness of God is no accident. We can’t get way from it. Our DNA is inherited from the Source, God, and this dictates how we think, behave and act.

The third reason is that since God is spirit and therefore eternal, we are also eternal since we are also spiritual beings. This is true whether we feel religious or not. So whether we believe it or not we are eternally connected with the Source, God.

Actually, believing in God is for your benefit. Being in harmony with God puts you in harmony with the laws of the universe, which are necessary for your success, wealth building and happiness. If you’d like to study this topic further, I advise you to get hold of David Cameron’s book, A Happy Pocket Full of Money. I also recommend the book I’m Rich Beyond My Wildest Dreams by Thomas Pauley.

“Imagination is the greatest creative force on earth.” – Albert Einstein

The human mind is a very powerful tool. Everything you see in this world started as a thought in someone’s mind, including wealth and all the money in the world. As a matter of fact, everything that was ever created or invented in this planet was imagined first.

Discovering God leads you to discover who you really are. Discovering yourself leads you to discover your purpose in life. Wealth, success and happiness only follow when you discover yourself and your purpose in life and begin to behave and act in the direction of your purpose.

Discover yourself and you will begin to imagine. Imagination will become dreams. And your dreams will become reality.

The conscious mind holds all sorts of thoughts – those you believe in and those you do not believe in. The subconscious mind on the other hand holds only what you hold as truth to you; what you believe in. In order to change your mindset, you must train your subconscious mind to hold as true, those things that you know to be factually untrue. For example, you know it’s a fact that you are not rich now. That belief is held in your subconscious mind. To change that you must begin to exercise with your conscious mind by sending messages to your subconscious mind from your conscious mind, that you are already rich NOW; although in reality you are not yet rich. Sounds difficult? I know it is, especially since you have always known for a fact that you are not rich. This is because you have lived and been influenced, in a contrary environment all your life. But remember also that you are where you are today, due to self-limiting beliefs and actions in your past.

Begin to change your thinking this way and begin to speak and act the same. Begin to UNLEARN all the self-limiting beliefs you have ever been taught by your parents, your teachers, and society all your life and you will have taken the first step on your journey to wealth, success and happiness.

In the book The Millionaire Mindset by Boris Vene and Nikola Grubisa, the authors suggest that the most important step you must take on your way to success, wealth and happiness is to decide to believe in yourself. It is a decision that requires no judgment on your part of whether you are worthy of that belief. You must first accept with all your heart that you are a unique person; a being who deserves only the best in life – then miracles will happen.

Everything you need is already within you, and whatever you don’t have, you probably don’t need. God, the master designer thought of everything when he created us, human beings. In the book The Road Ahead, Bill Gates suggests that the human brain is a very complex computer, more powerful than even the most powerful supercomputer on earth. When God created us, he also built the capacity to create within us. This inbuilt capacity is locked in our bodies in the form of genetic information or DNA.

As we begin to stimulate our minds by challenging our thinking and self-limiting beliefs, we also begin to arouse this inbuilt, sleeping monster called DNA. It is only then that we begin to understand whom we really are – creative beings able to create, build or make any conceivable thing we can imagine including money, wealth, success and happiness.
