Reach Beyond Your Limiting Beliefs
I’m sure it’s not new to you that your health and your thoughts are related. An entire field of study is devoted to studying this mind-body connection. Researchers continue to find links between diseases and emotions. Consider how your blood pressure rises when you’re upset or anxious. Inflammation and infections such as herpes flare up when you’re under emotional stress. It’s not just the small stuff. Negative emotions and limiting beliefs can impact survival. A study reported in the Journal of Clinical Oncology found that a woman with metastatic breast cancer lived longer once they improved symptoms of depression. That’s why it’s important to eliminate all those pesky limiting beliefs that could be sabotaging your health and keeping you sick or hurting. In many cases, you could have these beliefs without even realizing it. Limiting beliefs could be things like, “I’m too old to enjoy a pain-free life,” or “There is no cure for my health condition. It will never go away,” or “An active energy-filled life is for other people, not me.” You may not even know that you have these limiting beliefs.
You don’t manifest what you want. You manifest what you believe. It’s important to get rid of those beliefs that don’t serve you and replace them with positive and empowering beliefs. That’s where awareness and meditation come in and this doesn’t help you with your health. It will also help you overcome limiting beliefs related to money, relationships, career and other key areas of your life. Isn’t it time to drop some of the heavy baggage in the form of those limiting beliefs? Looking back at my life, I could say that I had been involved in education in some capacity for many years. It probably started when my family told me to tutor my brother in mathematics when I was fourteen and he was thirteen. Needless to say, I was absolutely unaware of learning theories, methodologies or approaches.
My only approach was to appeal to his vanity and self-esteem by suggesting, “How come you don’t know something as simple as this?” My brother and I get on well with each other now, but he told me later that he hated that one year I was teaching him mathematics. His lifelong ambition was to make sure that I would never have to teach him mathematics again. If you measure the effectiveness of a teacher by results, you could say I was a great teacher because my brother’s grades in mathematics became far superior to mine. For the next few years, his grade in mathematics was always much ahead of mine. He made it to college and to university in the strength of his mathematics alone.
You don't manifest what you want. You manifest what you believe. Click To TweetMany years ago, I was relief teaching in a co-ed school for a few months. Having been in an all-boys secondary school, it was a little bit of a culture shock when I was teaching there. I was given two classes to look after. One was of the good classes and the other was the supposedly incorrigible class. The word is how the other teacher referred to these classes. The teachers and the students in the good class did all the right things. They were also well-behaved. However, the capacity for lesser thinking was not significant. I was simply a place holder for them. I was also not a class teacher.
The incorrigible students, by contrast, were alive, street smart and capable in every arena except schoolwork. I found this strange until I asked one of them what had happened. He basically told me that every year their class teacher reiterated how incapable they were. I admit, when I first heard this, I felt angry, frustrated and betrayed that these teachers have brainwashed them into a state of deep inadequacy. On the other hand, it may have felt overwhelming for a teacher to manage a high energy class. I was only 24 and I felt that the class had been wronged.
I felt they needed a motivation boost. I thought the job of an educator was to inspire, motivate and encourage learners to get excited about learning and stretch themselves. I got the chance when they had a class test. Being street smart, they already knew that if they failed the test, they would be retested. I would have to give them the model answers and they would mostly pass. The school required that I plot a grade point curve. I decided to do something innovative. This was many years ago and open book tests were not common. I then gave the class a test paper and said, “Anyone caught cheating would be suspended.” I took out a book and read while the class turned it into an open book test. They were greatly tickled by what they thought of as pulling one over me.

Limiting Beliefs: The stress and emotional pain are not caused by external issues, but by the battle between who you really are and the narratives you have been brainwashed with.
I still had a suitable grade curve when I marked their papers. This was probably the one time they read their textbooks. I felt I was making a difference. A few months after I left the school, I accidentally met the vice principal who had hired me. She asked me in amazement what I have done for the class because in the history of the school, that was the first time the class passed the final year examinations. This left an indelible impression on me and the power of educators to influence the students, build your self-esteem and move them closer to self-actualization by getting into rapport with them. In the end, the students taught me more about motivation, self-esteem, being passionate about learning and getting learners intrigued than any educator I ever knew. I also realized that these experiences, as well as my earlier challenges, always had me rooting for the underdog.
I refuse to give in and give up. I realized that so long as you can do that you never lose. Victory could be one step away. Did you know that stress and emotional pain is not caused by external issues, but by the battle between who you are and the narratives you have been brainwashed to accept? It’s like the students had been brainwashed into believing they were not capable. Did you know the financial problems are not caused by lack of what’s coming to you but the lack of what you’re allowing to come through you? The truth is most people allow themselves to be conditioned by family, friends and society. It’s the belief that you’re not enough or need something outside of themselves in order to be complete. Because of this, it is scary to own our own power and purpose when the truth is we must take a stand for ourselves and take control of our destiny.
It is not egotistical to realize our greatness and share it with the world. It is the ego not to do this.
