The Connection Between Beliefs And Life
Welcome to Belief Quotes.
Humans live their life based on the deep seated beliefs they hold. The quotes given here discuss the various attributes of beliefs.
There are religious beliefs, financial beliefs, health beliefs, beliefs for every part of life. These beliefs are formed due to a variety of factors. Your parents’ behaviour with you and with the society at large, your education, your social milieu, your own experiences with life and so on. Almost all of these factors are out of our hands. We can hardly do anything about them.
It's difficult to do anything in life contrary to the belief we hold in that field. So if you have a belief that "Money is the root of all evil", you will probably never be rich because you will never undertake any action that makes you rich.
If your parents had ridiculed you often when you were a kid, you will have a damaged self esteem. You will never believe in yourself, feel unworthy of anything and consequently will find success eluding you.
If you had a school teacher who had praised you, especially in front of your class, about some activity, say your elocution, and in subsequent years others reinforced that belief in you that you speak well then, as a grown up you will undoubtedly become an excellent public speaker and success will follow you. Thus, the beliefs we hold in our mind about ourselves dictate our life. Belief quotes support this fact.
Hence, if you want to change your life, change your beliefs. You can change your beliefs by changing your thoughts. You can change your thoughts in a variety of ways. Affirmations, visualization, hypnosis are some ways in which you can do that. Elsewhere on this site, you will find all the information you need bout these topics.
