Faith. Almost every person on the planet lives everyday in complete faith. We believe, and we believe in our beliefs. Faith is a powerful force. With every ounce of conviction we can muster we devote ourselves to our beliefs. We commit to upholding them, protecting them, defending them and proving them right.
Problem is most of us put all of our faith in our limitations. We bow down before our “can’ts”… and there are so many of them. “I can’t have what I want.” “ I can’t be who I want to be.” “I can’t do what I want to do.” We live a life that is way below our standards because we have become evangelists of the religion of limitations. We work jobs we hate, struggle to get buy on a measly income, wish for the perfect partner while we sit around alone (watching TV). We don’t have the social life, professional life experiences or freedom we want. We don’t have the power we want, the emotions we want and we are nowhere near having the life we want.
We believe we don’t deserve to have everything we want. We decide we aren’t good enough, lucky enough, worthy enough. And so nothing we have is enough.
But what if the foundations of that religion were to come tumbling down to make way for a new religion?
Each of us has made agreements with reality. Most people signed a pact long ago that they will never be, have or do everything they want. Everyday they live out their limitations wondering why they aren’t fulfilled. But some agreements are meant to be broken.
What if today, right now, you were to make a new agreement with reality? Tear up that old contract and write a new one. In this new agreement you can have anything you want, be anyone you want and do anything, absolutely anything you want to do. As part of this new agreement you put every ounce of your faith in your potential instead of your limitations. You become a disciple of your dreams and an evangelist of the perfect future instead of being a slave to all that you thought was holding you back (which was really just an outdated agreement you made).
Let all of those limitations, the “I can’ts” “I’m nots” and “I won’ts” well up inside of you and begin to dissolve. Make the decision to put your faith in a new religion and watch how your life changes.
