Limiting Beliefs - Personal Experience
Long before I watched the movie “The Secret” I realized that there were things in my life that I would like to achieve.
And as with many other people I could clearly see that I had not achieved them yet and far worse that I was not even on my way to achieving them.
Ok, let’s get real: I am not into fast cars, I have a decent body and am not over-weight, and from a financial point of view, I am not exactly starving. So many people would say: What is it you want? You have a good life! And yes, that is true!
And it is true that I do not have BIG goals that I have not achieved yet. I am a self-employed IT-specialist and do earn enough money a make a good living.
What I would like to achieve is that I could work from my own little office, spend more time with my family and my dogs and to be sure that I will be able to retire comfortably in 20 years.
Those “humble” goals all have to do with “more money”. If I could find a contract allowing me to work from my office (I normally work on customer sites) that paid a little bit more money her hour, I would be done!
This goal does not seem like much! It does not seem hard to achieve, does it?
But for several years I have not come closer to this goal, more to the contrary!
So when I got to know the Law of Attraction (Please remember that I live in Germany. The Law of Attraction is not the big buzz in this country. You would have a hard time finding anybody who has ever heard of it.) I was absolutely fascinated! I read some books about it and enrolled in Bob Doyle’s “Wealth Beyond Reason” program. I can only recommend that program because it gives you a very good insight in the subject, very good materials, good support AND… You even learn about Limiting Beliefs!
But before I talk about Limiting Beliefs let me finish my “goal” subject first: Ok, now I knew about the Law of Attraction, about Goal Setting, about visualization and so on. So let me tell you in short how I understand you have to apply it:
Set your goal, focus on it, visualize it as if it was already true, feel the emotions you will have when you will have achieved it. Do this all with confidence and without doubt, and the Universe will bring your goal to you! Ok, maybe this is a very short description, but I think this is briefly the way to apply the Law of Attraction.
Now here is what happened to me:
“Set your goal”, yes I can do that!
“Focus on it”, that’s easy, that’s what I do all day already!
“Visualize it as if it was already true”, here comes the first obstacle! I just cannot visualize! I CAN’T! Of course I can: Imagine visualizing your dream house on the beach and all you can see is a black-and-white dungeon in the grey mist! Can you get excited about that? I can’t!
“Feel the emotions you will have when you have achieved it”, ok, I can feel the emotions, the excitement I have when I take a long walk with my dogs at dawn instead of driving to work.
“Do this all with confidence and without doubt”, oh, here comes the impossible thing! How can I have “no doubt” when all I have experienced tells me to have doubts? How can I silence the voices in my head that say “Who are you kidding?”?
Here they come, the Limiting Beliefs!
Have you read Joe “Mr Fire” Vitale’s “Attractor Factor“? What is the third step in his formula? GET CLEAR ON YOUR GOAL! That is to say: Get rid of your Limiting Beliefs about your goal! But how do I do that? Joe Vitale made an appointment with his mysterious healer, and bam, he was clear about his goals! Congratulations!! I do not have such a healer! The only “healer” I know would prescibe some valium to get me over my “upset” mental state.
Remember, I mentioned the “Wealth Beyond Reason” program? Bob Doyle is well aware of the importance of Limiting Beliefs (As of course is Joe Vitale. My former paragraph is not to imply that Joe Vitale is ignorant in any form, nothing would be further from the truth. In fact after writing “Attractor Factor” he teamed up with Brad Yates to do a program about erasing Limiting Beliefs himself.). He strongly recommends dealing with your Limiting Beliefs! His favourite method to do so is EFT. In his program he features the two EFT-specialists and prosperity coaches Carol Look and Brad Yates.
So I have to say that Bob Doyle really got me interested in Limiting Beliefs and how to erase them. EFT works for me, but in my opinion it is not fast enough.
I can say that for some time I got quite obsessed with finding faster, “better” methods. And that is what this blog is about: The methods I have found and the experiences I had with them. You can read all about the methods here. I certainly have my 2 favourite methods which are EmoTrance and the McKenzie Mastery Process. EmoTrance, because of the certainty I have about the method and the ease with which it is done, and the McKenzie Mastery Process, because it’s even increased ease of application.
But read for yourself and choose the method that is best suited for you!
To finish this, I would like to give my opinion on the Law of Attraction “work”: I think that the Law of Attraction will bring you your goals automatically as soon as you are in harmony with your goals, which is to say as soon as you have erased your Limiting Beliefs connected to the goals. The steps mentioned above (visualization e.g.) will only “boost” the speed of delivery, but without having dealt with the Limiting Beliefs nothing will happen.
