What do you believe?

“What Do You Believe In?”

Create a belief’s list.
This will require some real thought some deep reflection, and some great thinking, but the benefits are definitely worth it. I encourage you to try this.

We all should know what we believe in.

This will clarify any doubts you may have about who you are, what you stand for, and your integrity. It will help you discover more about yourself than any other exercise you have done. It will give more meaning and purpose to your everyday life and help you to begin on your personal mission or value statement that you can live your life by.

Just begin by writing at the top of the page, “I Believe in......”

Then starting a list of everything you believe in. Don’t worry if every item is not clearly defined at this point, just write it down. You can always clarify it more, change it, or remove it later if it doesn’t ring true for you.

Don’t number anything on the list, no sub lists, or possibles are allowed either.
Each entry must be 100% true for you to make the list and since these are all your beliefs you cannot number one any more important than another. Each should be equally important.

Be creative with the words you use to describe each belief. Make each statement profound for you, almost as if you have an awakening each time that you read it.

This will take more time than you think, and you may go back and change some entries from time to time, but after a few weeks of careful contemplation and soul searching you will end up with a list of your true beliefs.

Now that your list is complete, you will want to use it, so don’t file it away in your journal, or nightstand drawer. Keep it in your planner, wallet, purse, or other obvious place where you can review it regularly. You should review it as much as possible for the first few weeks or months and ask yourself this question.

Am I living true to my beliefs?

If not this could be a life changing experience for you.

Here are a few items from my personal list to help you get started with your belief list.

----God or higher intelligence ----You have the power
----Holding hands of the one I love ----Always doing my best
----Dreams are possible ----Angels
----Paying it Forward ----Laughter is the best medicine
----The power of a, “Thank You” ----Falling in love, over & over again...with my wife

If you want to go to the next level with this, after you complete your beliefs list try making a Don’t believe list. Write down everything you don’t believe in. This can also be wake up call.

If you would like help with living true to what you believe in......or any comments.
