The Magic Of Believing

 How many times have you heard it said, “ believe you can do it and you can?”   “If you believe it you can achieve it?”  These clichés are used often.  But, have you ever stopped to really think about what they mean?  Can you really achieve simply because you believe you can?

My experience in the motivation and personal development field has taught me that we can achieve if we believe.  It is the act of believing that is the starting point of achievement.  People, who don’t believe they can accomplish, will not try, or they try half heatedly and at the first sign of trouble they give up.  They find excuses for not doing what they want to do and are always looking for someone else to blame.

But, people who believe they can achieve, try harder, they do more.  When you believe in yourself you are not easily discouraged.  When challenges come, you see this as an opportunity to grow, to do more, to try harder, to ask for help, if needed.   Believers take personal responsibility. They focus on solutions instead of problems.  Believers make things happen, instead of waiting for things to happen.

1. To strengthen your belief: 
   Get absolutely clear on what it is you want in your life. 
2. Develop a plan on how to achieve it. 
3. Develop affirmations—positive statements, and
   visualizations—mental pictures, for achieving your goals. If you can see it you can be it. 
4. Use your imagination to project your thoughts and turn them into achievements—act as if you have already achieved it.  
5. Think successes don’t think failure.  Say “I will win”, not “I will probably lose.”
6. Remind yourself regularly that you are better than you think you are.  Successful people are ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
7. Take Action.  Nothing happens until you do something.  Do it on a massive scale.  There is nothing that strengthens belief than acting on your goals or dreams. 

When your beliefs are strong enough, it is possible to make yourself more competent in your business, more influential in your personal affairs and more successful in life.

Conceive it, believe it, and take steps to achieve it, then leave it to GOD and prepare to receive it.
