Hello guys,
can someone help me with this particular belief?
My parents, ever since I was little, told me that I need a degree to have a good and "rich life",
I am a dropout dude that, at 21 years old left the Academy of Fine Arts and start work, saving money with the intention to change the city and country.
Fast forward, now I am 25, saved some K's, changed my city and country (16.000km away from my city lol) and currently, I am in Australia, with a well-paid job, they offer me food and shelf too, so basically less responsibility.
I am in the perfect moment of my life, I go 4 times per week to the gym, I eat well, read, learn and try to build a business but this belief comes back every time, more when I focus, like, a little voice in my head that reminds me what my parents (especially my mom) told me every F*cking day: get a degree or you will fail in life.
Now, as stupid as it may sound, because I know that is completely false, I know that people made an empire without even the 3rd grade, I think this belief prevents me to go really all in.
Does someone have to deal with something like that? And if yes, how can you destroy and go through this belief?
