Believe…
I don’t often look at the etymology or the history and origin of words. I couldn’t resist; however, when I thought about the power of the word believe.
Originating from the Old English word belufan, the verb believe means to remain or to stay. In the late 12th century believe replaced the noun belief. After a number of translations throughout the centuries, by the 16th century the meaning of belief became “mental acceptance of something as true.”
What do you mentally accept as true about your skills and abilities?
I ask because what you believe is necessary for you to know in order to succeed in your business. Not knowing what you believe is where the real challenge exists. It’s because having a profound belief in your skills and abilities is at the heart of everything!! What you believe drives every choice you make. What you believe guides you in every decision you take. What you believe shows up in every conversation with every client in every program and every product. Yes, it is just that important!
We all have limiting beliefs that suck the life and joy out of our experiences. If there is the slightest dent in the armor of what you believe, it’s time to fix it. Take the time and make the investment so you can shed the beliefs that limit you. Believe in yourself at all times.
It’s time to believe in your gifts and talents!
It’s time to believe in what’s possible!
It’s time to believe in yourself with every fiber of your being!
It’s time to believe!
