Believe and You Shall Receive – Napoléon Hill

Napoleon Hill introduces the Principle of Applied Faith described as a major differentiator between successfully achieving a goal and falling short.

According to Merriam, Webster Faith is defined as “to believe that (someone or something) deserves to be trusted”

Simply put, this is the principle of Trusting the Process. What we believe is possible for us to attain or achieve is often what we take action towards and ultimately accomplish.

If we are taking the daily actions of a successful person then each day, we are becoming a more successful person.

If we are taking the actions that accumulate to successfully achieve a goal then it is reasonable for us to proceed with the Belief that we will successfully achieve our goal.

Sounds Simple right?

It’s Simple…. but not easy…. The tricky part is that Fear often prevents us from taking the first steps We are afraid that even though we take all the right actions and are on the path to success it won’t work for us.

Deep within our psyche lives old behaviors and limiting beliefs that have been programmed in us from a young age usually based on Fear.

They may represent themselves and self-criticism or an undercurrent of belief that we are somehow undeserving or need to be different before good things will happen for us the way they do for others.

The gnawing thought that somehow even though everyone else is able to be successful in taking the same actions but we will not or even worse… We WILL become successful and then not know what to do to maintain it…. not be enough to keep it.

How many times does an internal conversation centered around fear, self-doubt, and a belief that “it won’t work for me” cause you to procrastinate in taking the first step towards achieving a goal?

How many times were you planning to do something entrepreneurial, find a strategic partnership to grow your business, start working out and eating healthier, pitching a new idea at work, or pitch yourself for a promotion but instead used every means of self-justification and self-sabotage you convince yourself to not take the action?

Thankfully there is a solution. I have been on both sides of this coin and am living proof that we can change our brains. Neuroplasticity allows us to interrupt our old patterns, replace those behaviors with new ones, build new Neurol Loops and retrain our brain.

Practice for the Week

Here is one simple practice to incorporate into a morning routine that shifts what we believe is possible.

- look yourself in the eyes in the mirror every morning and say that “I love and approve of myself”.

Yes, it feels embarrassing and a bit ridiculous at first because if you are like me then you’ve never heard those words about yourself before. The more our brains hear those words, the more synapsis we build in that direction then the more we shift our core beliefs on what is possible for us.

On the other side of that discomfort of saying this phrase is the confidence that we are deserving and approved of.
