Hi Karen 
 
Me
Welcome to the October edition of the Self Discovery newsletter.  I am sat writing this in the gorgeous autumn sunshine on the South Coast. 
 
I would like to extend my welcome to my 13 new newsletter readers who have signed up over the last month, as well as those of you who signed up many months ago. I hope this newsletter continues to give you inspiration and encouragement to help you to live the life you want to live.
 
In the September newsletter, I looked at how people can make change in their life, but sometimes our beliefs get in the way.  It is important that you believe you can do what you choose.  So, this is the focus of the October newsletter.
 
I am always striving to increase the readership of this newsletter, so please forward it onto your friends or colleagues who may be interested in receiving it.  Have a good month.
 
Best wishes

Review your beliefs

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Woman

It is important to believe that you can achieve anything you want to in your life. If you believe in yourself and your abilities, you will be successful and turn your dreams into reality.  The only thing that may be holding you back is your belief.

 
The dictionary definition of a belief is "a principle accepted as true or real without proof.  An opinion, a conviction".
 
They are the thoughts you hold about things in your life.  They may be related to religion or spirituality, but in this context, I am looking at the beliefs that you hold about yourself and what you can achieve.  As the Personal Development Guru, Tony Robbins said, "the most important opinion a person will ever hold is the one that they hold about themselves".
 
Many people hold negative beliefs, which prevent them from achieving what they want. They may be created from your experiences, what people have told you or how you feel about something.  If you do have negative beliefs that hold you back, take some time to turn them into positive statements to help you to make fantastic, tangible change.
 
Consider any negative beliefs you have, and make a list of them. 
Take the most important, and ask yourself the following questions:
 
1. What have you not done because of this belief?
2. How has this limited your achievement?
3. How would your life be different if you let go of this belief?
4. What new positive beliefs could you develop to allow you to move your life forward?
5. What evidence do you have to support these new positive beliefs?
 
Consider how you can turn around anything that may be holding you back and how you can sustain your new positive beliefs in the longer term.  Also, celebrate the great things about your life and what you can do.
 
Please let me know how you have got on with this exercise.  Share your story with me by emailing karen@selfdiscoverycoaching.co.uk.
