Limiting your beliefs

NLP - Neuro Linguistic Programming was one of the courses i'd been recently exposed to by a Rotarian Advisor for my college. He told all of us, something that we never realised..

Which is to go beyond your beliefs.

We are brought up in a parental guidance where everything is a NO or a CAN'T.

Don't play in the river, you'll drown.
Don't Climb that tree, you'll fall and break your legs
DOn't go out, you''ll get robbed, kidnapped, banged
You need tuition, you CAN'T cope with the studies
Stay away from fire, they BURN...

All this principles are instilled in our mind, unconsciously, cause it happened long time ago, then it turns to fear. Because you're never allowed to do it yourself, parents limit our beliefs.

We know we can't go in the river, we'll drown..
We know we need plenty of tuition, we can't study ourselves.

Who told you that?Have you tried to go in the river? No, i just can't.. i WILL drown.

Well, its limiting yourself. Even painful experiences limit people... Get burn by boiling water, and you'll never boil again. When you believe that the world is going upside down, it WILL.

When you believe that your mum is going to scold you for the mess in your room, she WILL. why? cause you believed in it, you expected it to happen.

Ask yourself, if your parents weren't there to limit your beliefs, are you what you are now?

Many people fall badly, but they climb back up, and fall again, but they never stop trying, because they believe, they will succeed one day. Thomas Edison tried 10000 times to create a light bulb.

wHO would think that man can make it to space 100years ago? To them, its nonsense. They are limited by the surroundings, the beliefs.

There's this example my rotarian gave. Last time, a man went down with one breath underwater, and reach a depth of 100 metres.. a doctor that time said, thats the furthest a human can go, anything deeper kills. NOW the record is held by a woman, who dip 200metres more with one breath and came out ALIVE.

The 4minute mile. Researchers said, the fastest a man can go is 4 minutes a mile. A man did it 1second less, in weeks, dozens broke the record, why? Because they see a possibility, and they believe they can.

Have you ever believed in yourself that you can pass all your papers?
or be whatever you ever dreamed of?

Believe in yourself, work on it, and see the difference.

Ur unconscious mind cannot tell which is real and which isn't. Feel yourself jumping across the bar, feel yourself excelling in the exam.. and believe in it, work on it.. and whoalaaa..the results?

REMARKABLE.

lesson of the day, do not limit your beliefs, anything is possible.

NOthing is impossible, it just takes longer. Factors my forbear you, financially, emotionally, permissions, regulations, orders, and the must dos..

Not now?but there's always tomorrow. And later... I can't reach the cabinet. Well, jump more, exercise grow tall, 2years.. you're all over the cabinet.

So easy meh? It is really that easy. So long you believe you can, you always can. Never doubt your capabilities, cause it only stops you from doing what you want to.
