Developing Positive Beliefs
There really isn’t a downside to believing in yourself and believing the best about others. You may not achieve your original goal and might get burned, but you’ll be better off than if you’d assumed the worst from the start. Believing you will succeed will also make you happier. Although it may be partly delusion, the same is true of the failure belief. You have to believe in something, why not believe that your hard work is contributing to something positive? Why not believe that your biggest dreams are possible?
When you lose confidence and dwell on failure, you come up with even more facts to add to the failure list, strengthening the failure belief. When you choose to believe in success, positive facts emerge. The belief you choose to accept will become stronger over time through this pattern of self reinforcement.
Consciously remind yourself of the positive and allow the negative to roll off your back.
