What’s the deal with limiting beliefs?

What are limiting beliefs? And how do they impact your future?
“Limiting beliefs” are beliefs that narrow the thinking and limit the potential of the person who holds them.
Whether the belief is “I’m not good at x…” or simply “I’m not good enough”, these beliefs narrow the possibilities we are able to envision for our life, and the opportunities that we believe are available for us, and choose to go after.
What we don’t always realise is that these beliefs aren’t facts. They might feel like facts, and we might mistake them for facts, but they aren’t. And when you take the time to think about it, you can often trace back to when you first started to see yourself in that way. Perhaps someone told you you weren’t good at something and you internalised that belief.
The more you unpack the belief, the more you start to release yourself from the story that that’s “just the way you are”. And you get to construct a new identity that supports you to go after the life you want.
To help you with this, I’ve created a free resource that guides you to identify, unpack and rewrite your limiting beliefs.

I hope it opens your eyes as much as it has opened mine!
