Friend - beliefs, emotions, and reality

emotional healing so difficult? Many reasons. One of those reasons
concerns the very beliefs you hold. Beliefs precede reality. First
come your beliefs, and then comes the reality you see around you.
Just like a freight train pulls the railroad cars behind it. You
live a life that conforms to your belief system. Very little
happens to you that you don't first believe to be true. There's an
old saying that goes - "I'll believe it when I see it." A more
accurate saying (and the title for a 1989 book by Dr. Wayne Dyer) -
"You'll see it when you believe it." Beliefs lie at the core of
your reality. They exist as a raw material of life. Beliefs compare
to the building blocks of your world. Beliefs (along with
attitudes) determine the *quantity* of success you will achieve in
this life. They determine how much money you will make, for
example. Ask any self- made millionaire if it's easy to make money.
Every single one will tell you it is. (I've asked many myself!)
They got rich because of their beliefs and attitudes. Beliefs exist
as the ceiling to your life and what you can accomplish. They also
exist as the floor, or the foundation upon which you stand. Living
a life based on faulty beliefs compares to building a house on the
sand. It creates all kinds of problems. Your life reflects the
beliefs you hold. Want to know what you believe? Just look around.
Your beliefs are reflected in everything you see. You live in a
world that supports your belief system. We all do. Change your
beliefs, and your world changes. It has to. But beliefs, like
emotional patterns, can be hard to change. Beliefs and emotions
become intertwined in a particular way that makes them both hard to
deal with. It's hard to knock down a brick wall. But if you have a
pile of bricks, and next to it you have a bag of concrete - now it
becomes a little easier to deal with. Beliefs resemble bricks.
Emotions resemble the mortar that surrounds those bricks when you
build a brick wall. The mortar bonds with the bricks to hold the
wall together. Beliefs could also be compared to a chunk of iron,
while emotions could be compared to electrical wire wrapped around
the iron. The hunk of iron just sits there - but when you run
electricity through the wires wrapped around it - you create an
electromagnet. The electromagnet attracts things to it. Your
beliefs connect to certain emotions. As you conjure the emotions,
you activate the belief. Also, as you brush up against your
beliefs, you feel the emotions that surround those beliefs. Most of
your beliefs were formed by the time you reached your fifth
birthday. New beliefs must conform to your childhood beliefs or
they will be rejected as lies. "That's a lie! That's not true!"
Isn't it amazing how strongly we fight for our beliefs? And with so
much passion and emotion! Now you know why. Most beliefs serve you
well. Some, however, hold you back. It's hard to heal yourself
emotionally if those emotions are stuck like glue to certain
painful beliefs. It's hard to change your limiting beliefs without
releasing the painful emotions that surround them. Another
catch-22. Beliefs and emotions form a synergy - where the whole is
greater than the sum of its parts. A brick wall is more than a pile
of bricks and bags of mortar. An electromagnet is more than a chunk
of iron and a spool of wire. When combined, they become more
powerful. That's great, if they support you. But it sucks if they
don't. It almost assures a lifetime of pain and suffering. It
guarantees struggle. It promotes helplessness - along with the
depression and anxiety that come out of that helplessness. Faulty
beliefs with their surrounding emotions create a host of problems.
You already knew that. Let's focus on the solution. Your beliefs
reside in your subconscious mind. Specifically, they exist in your
Book of Belief. By going to your sub- conscious mind, and finding
your Book of Belief - you can change any negative belief to one
that supports you. Rip out the page that holds the old belief. Feel
(with intensity!) the emotions surrounding that belief. Tear up the
old page three ways. Write in the new belief - one that supports
you and makes you happy. Feel the new feelings of happiness and joy
and excitement that come with the new belief. Do this, and your
life will change. Your world will change. If you currently believe
emotional healing is hard, you can change that belief to EMOTIONAL
HEALING IS EASY. Then watch as emotional healing really does become
easier and easier. I've just given you the basic outline of how to
change a belief and release the emotions surrounding it. For all
the step-by-step instructions and details of exactly what's
involved (including how to find those beliefs in the first place) -
