The Key to Achieving Our Goals, Belief.


“Here we go again.”

“A mystical guru that promotes wishful thinking and expects us to get results.”


Oh you’ve got me all figured out huh? There is nothing Mystical about the power of belief.

“Where is he going with this?”

Do not confuse the power of belief with wishful thinking. You can’t wish yourself a new Lamborghini.

That’s right. Successful people never wish themselves to success. But they do all have something in common.

Successful people believe that they can achieve their goals. So they do. Average people believe they cannot, so they don’t.

“Successful people are just lucky”

Who do you think is more lucky? The person who sits in front of the T.V.? Or the person who works hard to achieve their own goals every day?

Think about that.


Without belief, successful people would not put in the hard work. They would not have the focus or determination to achieve.

“I don’t know how to achieve my goals, therefore there is no way to do it.”

When you believe that you can do it. The how to do it develops.


If you send a signal to your brain that tells it that a certain goal is unreachable, your mind will give you thoughts and ideas that support that belief.

Think defeat and lose.

If you believe that you can reach your goals. The mind will start calculating and give you ideas and motivation needed to make that goal a reality.


Think victory and succeed.

New industries, scientific breakthroughs, and expanding markets all spell opportunity.

This makes it easier to achieve big goals. There are countless opportunities and not enough big believers.


“Ok so what, I’m realistic and I know what I can and can’t do.”

It all starts with mindset.


Mindset

“The moment we believe that success is determined by an ingrained level of ability, we will brittle in the face of adversity”- Josh Witzkin

A person is a product of their own thoughts. If you think doubt, you will fail. Think victory and you will win.

Successful people aren’t more intelligent nor are they more perceptive than average people, they are only super confident.

They search for tools that help them achieve their goals.

You convert opportunity into reward and search for tools otherwise you wouldn’t be reading this.

There are two different mindsets that you can have. A fixed mindset or a growth mindset.

Belief will give you a growth mindset.

Fixed Mindset vs. Growth Mindset

Fixed mindset people give up when they hit a setback.

Fixed mindset people believe they can’t succeed, so they do not.

They think small and will never reach the top because they never discover the steps leading there.

Fixed mindset people believe that their current ability or talent is well… fixed.

If you have a growth mindset you have a different perspective on intelligence. You are not chained to your current capabilities.

Growth mindset people are great achievers that build and grow their abilities.


They learn how to grow and they learn how their own brain works.

Listen to your thoughts. Are you in a fixed or growth mindset?

Believe Big and Achieve Big.

Humans would have never went to the moon if we didn’t believe that we could.

Cancer will never be cured if we do not believe it is possible.

All great achievements came from people who believed that their craft would be great.

The people that reach the top start out with an attitude that they will reach the top.

Top leaders started out small. But they believed they would become the best.


Believe you are worth little, receive little, believe in big things, receive big.

What You Can do to Believe and Put Yourself in a Growth Mindset and Believe BIG.

Think, “I’m equal to the best,” not “I’m outclassed.”

-Be as good or better than the best


Take initiative.

-Ideas aren’t worth anything unless you take action. Figure it out on the way.

Think like the person you intend to become.


-Fake it till you make it. This will make you confident. Invision who you want to be in the future.

Use your mind to work with you not against you.


-Never think “I can’t do it” This is self sabotage and a limiting belief.

Never sell yourself short.

-Remind yourself regularly that you are better than you think you are.

-Success isn’t based on luck or super intellect. Successful people are just ordinary people who have developed belief in themselves.


Think Success

-Believe big. The size of your success is determined by the size of your belief. Little goals = little success.


-Big ideas are often easier to accomplish than small ideas.
