I love the quote by author Napolean Hill where he says, “Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.” He then goes on to say “…regardless of how many times you have failed in the past or how lofty your aims or hopes may be.”
In his book entitled Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill states that it is scientifically impossible to conceive something in your mind, to believe that you can do it, and then not be able to. The very fact that you can conceive something in your mind, and believe that you can do It, means that you can.
Belief is an ever important aspect of creating and accomplishing your goals and dreams for your life. If you can imagine it, but you truly don’t believe it, then you will not be able to achieve it. Your worry, doubt and uncertainty will act as a barrier that prohibits your vision from manifesting itself.
In order to manifest our dreams, goals and visions, we must believe 2 things:
- We must first believe that our vision can really become a reality,
- And second, we must believe that we deserve what we dream.
Therefore believing that you can achieve something is only half the battle. You MUST ALSO believe that you deserve what you desire.
This is tricky for a lot of us because a lot of us have obstacles and self limiting thoughts that keeping up from feeling that we truly deserve. But it is imperative to believe that we can have, and do deserve, in order to receive.
And when your belief comes, you radiate a different energy, which then allows God, the universe, your higher power, whatever that is for you, to work in your life.
Without belief, YOUR source can’t bless you to the level you deserve, because YOU prohibit it!
The universe wants to bless us. It is the universal law known as the law of abundance. There is enough for everyone to get everything they want, we just have to believe it and receive it.
There is so much abundance out there, that if everyone got what they wanted, there would still be tremendous abundance remaining.
So many of us operate under the premise of “TAKING OUR SHARE”, but we are not taking enough of our share or allowing ourselves to be rewarded with an abundant life. Our share is so much more, but we have to believe it first in order to receive it.
Dr. Wayne Dyer’s has a wonderful metaphor for this principle. He states:
“The ocean of abundance is there. You can go to that ocean of abundance, and you can take a mac truck and fill it up 20 times a day, and it doesn’t impact it at all, it doesn’t even go down a zillionth of an inch – its unlimited. Or you can go to the same ocean of abundance with an eye dropper and you can take that much out and say “that’s all that’s available for me.”
So the choice is yours – do you want to go to the ocean of abundance with a mac truck or with an eye dropper. Are you visions comparable to a vast ocean of possibility and opportunity, or are they limited by your doubts, worries and self limiting thoughts?
