The Pattern Of Belief/Focus For Success
Copyright © Jan Tincher - All Rights reserved
The feeling of success is an emotion, just as the feeling of failure is -- and they are both an emotional pattern you have developed, just as all emotions have patterns. You don't feel an emotion, you do an emotion, or you do an emotional pattern. If you have an emotional pattern, you can change it.
Three patterns make up our emotions -- the pattern of language, physiology and belief/focus. Successful or unsuccessful feelings/emotions are learned and contributed to daily. Then, sooner or later, a pattern in formed.
We all have a pattern for success, but many of us "use" the pattern for *unsuccess*, or failure, much more than we do the pattern for success.
As you learned in the previous issues, if you're happy, stressed, afraid, upset, or any other emotion, you're using your thoughts in a certain way. You are saying and/or thinking certain things -- in a certain way, using a certain pattern. You are also standing a certain way, meaning your body has its own way of dealing with emotions. You are also remembering what you believe or are totally focused on. All of those three things make up who you are and what you pay attention to.
Regardless, if you are thinking or speaking or hearing certain words in a certain way, those words trigger you. When someone yells at you in a way reminiscent of when you were growing up, you react the same way you always did -- good or bad. Why? Because it's a pattern you've learned. A pattern that says when *this* happens, *that* happens. The words are *this* and the action is *that*. You are triggered and the next time *this* happens you do *that* action.
You *believe* when you hear *this* you will do *that*. You don't believe otherwise, or you would *do* otherwise. What you believe, you focus on.
Your belief pattern makes up your life. Look around you. Whatever you believe is pictured in your life.
If you don't believe in eating chocolates, you have a very good chance of living your life without the experience of eating chocolates. If you don't believe in violence, you will shy away from violence. If you believe the fist is mightier than the mind, you will be automatic and physical in your reaction to something you feel is wrong. If you believe the mind is mightier than the fist, you will stand back and come up with a way to think differently about the situation. If you believe that love conquers all, you will stand behind that belief 100%. If you believe everyone is out to get you, you will stand behind that belief also, and automatically be prepared for it.
Please realize right now that no matter what you believe, you attract that type of person or circumstance into your life that will support that belief. Do you like what you believe? Does your belief support you as the type of person you *want* to be? Sometimes that answer to that is no.
Then, what are your options? You are what you are, right?
Think about it for a minute. If you thought everyone was out to get you, you would be looking for that to happen. If you thought love conquers all, you wouldn't even think about, or concentrate on, someone being out to get you. Iin fact, you wouldn't give it another thought. If it happens, it happens, but who really cares? After all, if your belief is that love conquers all, then it will, or at least it always has in your book.
Here is an exercise for you:
Bring up your most basic belief. It can be about love, hate, jealousy, whatever.
Let's go with love first. Let's just say you think, believe, that love conquers all. The person next to you is worrying about something. Your thoughts might be something like "Why is she/he worrying?" You would be thinking that because you know that if she/he had love in her/his heart, then that is what they would be focusing on. Worry wouldn't have a chance.
Now, for hate. If you had hate in your heart, it would be on your mind all the time. Your basic belief pattern might be something like, "I hate everything and everyone." When you hate someone, that person usually reacts to that hate, most often in a negative way. Guess what. You attracted that with your own thoughts, physiology, and beliefs. Am I saying that if you didn't have hate in your heart you wouldn't attract it in your life? You bet that's what I'm saying. If it did come into your life for some reason, you wouldn't react to it the way you used to. If hate didn't have your hate to bounce off of in the first place, it wouldn't get the same reaction, therefore it couldn't react in the same way.
How can you change? That's your belief pattern.
The same thing for jealousy. If jealousy was your basic belief pattern, then you would always be looking at what others have and what you don't have. That is your belief pattern and that is your life.
How can you change? Any one of those is your belief pattern.
Are you getting the picture. What do you believe? Whatever it is, it comes out in your physiology and your words.
Remember, none of the answers are good or bad, they are just the answers that hold the key to your success.
A hero is a state of mind. Be your own hero. Learn that certain way of feeling that magnifies a certain emotion. Learn that certain body language that changes your state. Learn that belief pattern, what you focus on. Start taking charge of your emotions.
Here is a twist on last issue's exercise for you:
Stand in front of the mirror and imagine how you would feel if you BELIEVED you were a success. Check it out.
How are you standing? Is your spine straight? Are your shoulders back? Are your legs close together or spread apart?
Where are you looking? Are you looking yourself in the eyes?
Are your eyes bright and alive?
Is your heart beating just a little faster?
Is your breathing faster?
Is there a feeling of a weight lifted from your shoulders, chest, stomach, head?
Are you smiling successfully?
What are you feeling right now? Carry that feeling with you for the rest of the day. See what changes that makes in your life.
Here is another exercise:
Check your beliefs in everything you do. Make a list of pros and cons about every belief pattern you have. If it has too many on the con side, maybe you will want to change that belief. Read "Do You Want To Change Your Belief Pattern?" http://www.tameyourbrain.com/beliefpattern.htm
Our patterns are important to us. Once we realize how they affect our friendships, our relationships, our lives, and, yes, our success, we pay more attention to them. Learn just how important your patterns are, then utilize that knowledge every day.
