There are 3 areas of beliefs that define my life. Belief in God, belief in myself, and belief in my relationships.
These beliefs will be the fire within you that will bring you places when present day reality might be telling you something else.
Belief in God
My life is based upon my relationship with God. Now I understand that my relationship might not be politically correct, however political correctness has nothing to do with my relationship with God. This relationship started decades ago and it has been instrumental in my understanding about this belief. I've had beliefs before my relationship with God, but having and developing this relationship, has helped me with the convictions and beliefs in all aspects of my life. These have been shaped by my upbringing, my relationships with those who both believe and don't believe in God and a personal search, in many ways of what the truth about God is for me. The most interesting thing about this search, has been that it is imposable to know definitively if my belief is correct or not. That is the reason why this is called belief and why it is a journey that will take you closer to your belief or have you change and adapt your belief. Decades of traveling down this never ending road, my belief has become more and more solid. My belief in God has become the foundation of who I am.
Belief in Myself
When I was young, I didn't know who I was and what I was capable of. This caused confusion and uncertainty of direction. I began to learn what my abilities were and what I enjoyed doing. I realized that others quite often had their own ideas of what I should and shouldn't do. When I traveled down a path that was someone else's path, and not necessarily the one of my choosing or liking, it would cause tremendous confect in me. I came to believe it was more important to be true to who I was, rather than be someone I was not, for someone else's sake.
I started to believe in my natural abilities and the things I was passionate about. The things I believed in, I pursued through different learning paths including formal education, reading, seminars and personal relationships. Development of belief in yourself gives you an ability to stretch your understanding, capabilities and expanding your personal limits. When you believe in your abilities and go after your passions, you never have to chase the money in endeavors that you are not comfortable with. Belief in yourself and pursuit in a career you are passionate about will give you personal peace and successes beyond your wildest imagination.
Belief in Relationships
Family, personal and business relationships are all that you can choose wisely and believe in for your mutual benefit. All three are relationships that you can embrace or move away from. The ones that you embrace are the ones that will enhance your belief system of who you are and what you do. Your beliefs in your God, yourself and your relationships will develop over time and will transcend your business, your personal and your spiritual life.
These beliefs will be the fire within you that will bring you places when present day reality might be telling you something else.
Hold true to your beliefs and continue to believe who you are and what you believe! Aim high!
