You may think that the biggest block keeping you from creating the life you want, attracting the money you desire, meeting the love of your life or working in the career that truly represents your purpose on this earth is due to limiting and self-sabotaging beliefs that you hold in these areas, lodged deeply in your subconscious mind. You may believe it is these beliefs, created when you were a baby or a child for very important and valid reasons, are now sabotaging your chance to realize what you really do want in your finances, career, relationships and overall happiness.
But you may be surprised to learn that the limiting beliefs you may hold around money, love, success and happiness actually are not the biggest blocks keeping you from creating more in each of those areas.
The beliefs you have around money, love, success and happiness absolutely can block you from realizing what you most want to create. In fact, after the biggest block, that is exactly where you look to uncover what is keeping you from creating exactly what you want in your life. However, if you are searching for the biggest block, you won’t find it lodged in any of your beliefs in these areas.
Where you will find your biggest block is in a much less exciting area of your beliefs, and yet far more powerful. The truth is that your subconscious has one main primary focus. It has one responsibility, which if not done with 100% success, is literally a life and death situation. The number one role of your subconscious is to keep you alive. Bottom line, if you stop breathing or pumping blood, it doesn’t’ really matter what else happens. Safety is the name of the game. If your safety is in jeopardy, or even perceived jeopardy, your subconscious kicks into gear and does everything it can to assist you in remaining safe.
Since the subconscious views everything you do through this filter, its first question to anything new, different or questionable is, “If I let this happen, will I be safe?” Your subconscious answers that question by using the past as a gauge. This means, your subconscious looks at past events to determine if this is a good idea or bad idea based on past experiences and consequences. When you find yourself doing the same things over and over again and you ask yourself, “Why do I keep doing this?” This is why. Even if something doesn’t completely work for you anymore, your subconscious is comfortable with what the projected outcome will be. It feels that you are still “safe” relative to living versus dying and that this is a behavior that is acceptable.
You may also have found that when you want to make changes in your life, there is a lot of resistance and fear that accompanies that intention. You may have found yourself easily slipping back into past behaviors even though the new behaviors appear to be what you want. The truth is that you aren’t really sure the new behaviors are going to always be better than the past behaviors. It takes faith and courage to move forward into the unknown. Even if the potential is there for more money, love, success or happiness, the guarantee is not. And, that is sometimes very scary. It seems illogical that you would want to continue creating a life that you don’t want. However, when you look at if from the perspective of safety and comfort, it makes more sense. It is far more comfortable to do things you already know how to do or to indulge in things where you already know the typical outcome. Doing new things is very uncomfortable. Again, your subconscious prefers comfort and safety because that means sustaining life.
