The Power of Self Belief, Faith & Love

‘Never be afraid of what you might achieve.

Instead, be more afraid of what you might not’

Today, more than at any other time, we are all seriously being challenged to realise our true potential in all areas of our lives, and it is now and only now that we all need to stand up and do our bit to raise the vibration that is within each of us and make a difference in our own lives and in the lives of others.

Each of us has a true purpose in life:  Many of us continue from the birth to the death without realising just what it is.  Others still, have a perfect vision in their minds of just what it is they are destined to achieve and exactly what it will take to get to that special place.

Unfortunately we often lose our way due to stress, outward pressures, distractions, reduced finances and a host of other impacting issues we allow to permeate our lives and derail us.

As children, we’re often told by those who should know better, that we’re not smart enough; creative or good looking enough to do anything special with our lives.  Often it’s a well intentioned parent, teachers, sibling, friend, neighbor or complete stranger who negatively impacts our psyche and sets us on a path to nowhere.

It’s lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges

~  Muhammad Ali ~

Faith is an empowering emotion and is among the strongest  state of mind that most effects the subconscious mind. This is important when it comes to putting your thoughts into action in everyday life. If you set yourself a task but are lacking the faith in yourself to complete it then subconsciously you are accepting defeat as inevitable. However, if you are able to affirm to yourself subconsciously that you can achieve what you set out to do then your efforts will be boosted and the results will empower your self belief and strengthen your faith, and your faith will strengthen your self belief – the cycle of life in motion in a positive way is so empowering as our belief in self becomes a positive habit and our faith in our ability continues to grow each day in every way.

 

If you are to become successful in whatever goals you have set yourself in life then you need to avoid negative emotions and encourage positive ones. As a consequence you will acquire a subconscious mind that will start to act upon all the positive emotions including faith and you will vibrate love out into your World

If thoughts are backed by strong emotions such as faith and love then they

have more chance of being expressed through actions.

Personal Responsibility and Blame

 

Part 4 of 5

Blame is projecting onto others, (pointing the finger at) what

we have attracted into our lives for our  growth and learning

So what is blame?

  • Blame is victim-hood.
  • Blame is projecting onto others and avoiding the learning
  • Blame is avoidance of accountability
  • Blame is giving your free will and personal responsibility away to someone or something else.

Our western laws are set up with this victim mentality, but that does not mean it’s the truth. The truth is that we are responsible for our thoughts, feelings, and actions in the world and there is no room for blaming in that equation. The idea of taking personal  responsibility for our thoughts, feelings & actions in response to any given situation is the most empowering , pro-active perspective we can have. It takes us immediately from the victim mode to the creator mode.

When you truly understand that the world outside of you is a reflection of the world inside of you, you may react with confusion about who is to blame for the problems in your life. If you had a tumultuous and difficult childhood, you may question the validity or soundness of taking responsibility for everything you have experienced. Furthermore, the same question arises for your current relationships.

We intuitively know that blaming others is the opposite of taking responsibility, but you may not understand how to take responsibility for that which you do not truly believe you are responsible for creating. You can blame your parents for your low self-esteem, etc. and you can blame your current partner for exacerbating it with his/her inconsiderate or lackadaisical behavior. This is the well-worn modus operandi of many people–albeit resolution to an issue is impossible. Albert Einstein’s statement, on insanity is

“Doing the same thing again and again and expecting different results,”

What you avoid taking responsibility for, is out of your control.

The fly in the ointment lies with the avoidance of taking responsibility for your life here and now. Whether you blame others or blame yourself, it is an aggressive and unkind act against oneself. It sets up a situation in which it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to move beyond the burdensome feelings of blame, shame and guilt that rest below the surface of consciousness–only to pop up when triggered by a similar experience. It also puts the resolution of your emotional pain into the hands of someone else rather than yourself. Ultimately, you cannot insist that someone else take responsibility for your feelings or actions, only you can make that choice when you are ready. Meanwhile, if you want to move forward with your life you need to accept personal responsibility for your life and take all situations into your hands.

Who is better at solving the puzzles of your journey, this lifetime

THAN YOU ?

The most important step in taking full responsibility of one’s journey is to forgive those whom one blames–parents, partner, friends, colleagues, and all others.

“ Forgiveness is the key to happiness”

Gerald Jampolsky

author, of

“Love Is Letting Go of Fear.”

You can have the courage to end an abusive relationship with a partner, who may never admit wrong doing, because you are willing to take personal responsibility for how you allow yourself to be treated.

The bottom line is–love yourself enough to take responsibility for how you think, feel and behave. You deserve to love, be loved and create the life you know you deserve. Leave the resolution of the wrongs committed against you in the hands of the universe, releasing yourself to live life free of blame, shame and guilt.
