How You Can Reprogram Your Beliefs For Success
Success in today’s world is seen as the most prized possession with people constantly hustling to succeed. Regardless of which field one is working in, but success is all that matters to everyone and that also makes sense. Although we employ a lot of physical effort to succeed, but many of us miss out on a very important factor: our inner environment. For this reason, success often does not come to people who work really hard, because their beliefs work against them. True success only comes when beliefs, thoughts, emotions, and actions are aligned in one direction as that allows us to employ the “whole” of us in the process. Therefore in this article you will learn that how you can reprogram your beliefs for success. Before we begin, let us understand what beliefs are.
What are beliefs?
To explain simply, beliefs mean your outlook towards something. As we grow up, our mind is exposed to different information from different sources, which forms our beliefs. Our beliefs usually form when we are very young; hence we simply accept what the world tells us, without questioning it. This allows that information to directly reach our subconscious, and those become our beliefs. In most cases, we are often told that it is very hard to succeed, and we keep accepting this information, which eventually becomes our belief.
Furthermore, our belief also controls how we think and also how we feel which controls our state of being. For example, if you work hard, but your inner voice keeps telling you “you do not deserve success,” or “success is hard to get,” then you will often end up defeating yourself. Our chances of success reach their peak when we know sure shot deep within us that we deserve success, and that controls the rest of everything. Now that we have understood what beliefs are, let us explore ways to reprogram our beliefs for success.
How it works?
People often think that they can change their beliefs by repeated thoughts and affirmation, but, let us be honest, it does not work. Our beliefs are not shaped by thoughts alone, but by emotions generated by them. For example, if you keep telling yourself that you will be successful, but do not feel the emotions of success, then your beliefs will not change. Our beliefs communicate with us through emotions, and also are influenced by emotions, and not by superficial thoughts or affirmations. Therefore we are going to explore ways that will generate the right emotions within you, and that will help you change your beliefs. (Read: How to go with the flow)
Small goals
People often set unrealistic goals for themselves, which totally goes against their belief system. For example, if you set an aim of buying a red Ferrari, but right now are on a bicycle, then deep within you, you will know that it will not happen. In such cases, our beliefs, thoughts, emotions and actions never get aligned, and we never get to reach our goals.
So what is the solution? The solution is to set up several short term goals for you. For example, if you dream of being a TED speaker, then start by aiming for local talk competitions. Small goals never go against our belief system, which further aligns all the 4 dimensions: belief, thought, emotion and action. If you break down your final goal, then you will see that it is composed of various short term goals, and as you focus on them and achieve one after the other, then eventually your beliefs will get reshaped. Every small success with generate positive emotions within you, which will help you reprogram your beliefs.
How far have you come?
Do you know that you can also reprogram your beliefs, just by changing the way you look? Yes, most of us keep our eyes fixated on our final goal, which not only scares us, but also creates doubts that whether we will even accomplish our goal or not? Furthermore, thinking too much about the big goal is also one of the main reasons why people give up. They feel intimated by the journey that they have to cover, and many of them simply give up due to lack of motivation.
The easiest way to combat this problem is to keep your focus not on your final goal, but how far have you made it. Every time you will look back you won’t be reminded that how far you still have to go, but what all you have already achieved. This simple mind-shift will continually generate winner emotions within you, which will help you to re-wire your beliefs very easily.
So create short term goals, and keep your focus on the small goals that you achieve one by one. This will not only help you change your beliefs, but will also keep you fresh and motivated. Simple, yet very effective! (Read: How to get into a flow state)

As we all know, there is an intelligence within us without which our body is a mere corpse. Some call it god, some call it soul, and some call it consciousness. It is actually this intelligence that wills, desires, thinks, and acts within us, and then experiences situations through the senses. Further, it is this intelligence only which experiences those limiting beliefs. However, if we acknowledge that our desire is not ours, but of this intelligence, then we feel gratitude towards what god is trying to accomplish through us. We become a tool for the divine to express through us. In this state, we transcend our limiting beliefs, and stay in state of grace. From doubt, we transition towards faith!
Conclusion
Physically, we all are the same, but it is our beliefs, that separate us and make us unique. It is our beliefs that not only determine how we think and act, but also determines the direction we move towards. This is why, it becomes very important to keep our beliefs in check, and employ ways to change self-defeating ones.
Nonetheless, we must remember that a belief is a belief, because it is not a fact or truth. It is just an outlook that you hold which got formed over the years through social influence. Hence, we should never view our beliefs like a life sentence, but just a perception which can be easily influenced.
