Hi all, and Happy Holidays!
[TLDR: how to manifest belief in your self?]
The discussion that i would like to have today is about lack of belief. Let me try to explain what I mean:
Limiting Beliefs are "beliefs that are held either consciously or subconsciously that serve as obstacles to manifesting and attracting what you want".
Neil Strauss gave this a quick solution: "Can you think of a time that you limiting belief was not true?
Ex Belief: I cant talk to women.
Ex Not true: I talked to the grocery store lady just yesterday, therefore the belief is not true.
This is just a simple and silly example of how to dissolve limiting beliefs, but now that basically all it takes me to change my mind on most cases. What i lack is the ability to apply this to "bigger things".
Ex Limiting Belief: Its impossible to Earn 1,000,000$ in a day.
Ex Solution: Bill Gates makes deals that earn him such a sum in a day, therefore its possible.
From here the limiting belief becomes that Bill Gates or someone with equal presetting or resources) can do it, but i cant... I have 'Lack of Belief' because I have the previous limiting belief that in order to make 1,000,000$ in a day i need to be Bill Gates.
No matter how much i try to logicalize this, i still cant manifest this belief.
>what do?

too deep?

Making a whole lot of money in such and such a time is harder than just going up and talking to the grocery store lady in terms of the processes you need to go through. The steps involved in doing the latter is basically walk up and talk but with the former you really need to figure out how to make that money.

What I would suggest is looking at how people like Bill Gates made their squillions and take what you learn on board so you can try to replicate their steps somewhat. Trying to get the same level of success that Bill Gates had may be over reaching though (as fun as dreaming is sometimes you just have to look at hard reality). These days with the Internet it is possible more than ever for people to get rich very quickly by launching an innovative website or whatever, but still it requires as much work as it does overcoming limiting beliefs.

Some people are born with an entrepreneurial mind and/or born into an entrepreneurial world, and it can seem so easy for them on how they make their fortunes. Overcoming limiting beliefs alone won't get you a slice of the 'playboy action'.

Reminds me of those examples of fallacious reasoning where they say: I have a dog, my dog is brown, therefore all dogs are brown.

I could use your same logic to defeat your false logic. You say that Bill Gates earns a million dollars, and since you are not Bill Gates then you can not earn a million. Well, Warren Buffet earns a million dollars a day, and since someone BESIDES Bill Gates can earn a million dollars in one day, and since you are ALSO someone else besides him, then you can earn that much too!

But let's face it. This is all just word play unless you take away something meaningful from it. You obviously understand the nature of limiting belief systems. That is all you really need to know. Sure, you can sit there all day and mind fuck yourself back into more limiting beliefs, but what do you hope to gain from that?
