1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: So much of our life begins invisibly. A seed is

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: still a seed before it becomes a flower. A prayer

3
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: is still a prayer before it becomes an answer, and

4
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 1: a dream is still a dream before it becomes your reality.

5
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:12,719
Speaker 1: Maybe belief is the part of us that knows how

6
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: to see life before it has even finished becoming. Welcome

7
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 1: to you a Really Good Cry Podcast. A Really Good

8
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: Cry is here to help you understand your body, feel

9
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 1: confident in your skin, manage your emotions, and take back

10
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: control of your help. Because growth doesn't always start with answers,

11
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: sometimes it starts with a really good cry. Hey, everyone,

12
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: welcome back to this week's episode of A Really Good Cry.

13
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,239
Speaker 1: I hope that you've had such a wonderful week. You know.

14
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: I've been looking at my for you page lately and

15
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 1: it has been filled with quotes. It's something that I've

16
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,919
Speaker 1: been trying to curate because I realized that I get

17
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 1: the most from reading them, and some of the other

18
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 1: things that used to be on my for you page

19
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 1: we're not necessarily helping me. And so now my whole

20
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: for you page is all these beautiful quotes, you know,

21
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: just ones that make me think, make my heart happy,

22
00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: make me laugh. And one of the things that I

23
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: read was one line. It was really simple, but it's

24
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: basically sparked the thought for this entire episode, and it

25
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 1: is that belief is magnetic. And it really made me think,

26
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: because I feel like we hear things like that and

27
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 1: immediately we can put them into this category of manifestation

28
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: or just positive thinking. But the more I thought about it,

29
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: the more I realized that belief isn't magnetic because the

30
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: universe is randomly rewarding your thoughts. Belief is magnetic because

31
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,639
Speaker 1: what you believe literally changes how you move through the world.

32
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: Believing in the magic of life is honestly what has

33
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: got me through the difficult times Delusionally, believing in myself

34
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: is what pushed me to do the things I never

35
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: thought that I would do. But we're amazing and I

36
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: am so happy in my life that I did them.

37
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: And so I kept asking myself, like, what is life

38
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: without believing in a little bit of magic beyond our

39
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: own vision? I feel like we need that. Sometimes. Belief

40
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: is honestly what carries you through the unknown moments, and

41
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: the fact is you can actually start choosing the thoughts

42
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: that support the life that you want, you can actually

43
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: choose the thoughts that support the beliefs that you want

44
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: to have. You have the power to do that, And

45
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: so telling yourself simple things like you can do hard things,

46
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 1: I can do hard things, I can do hard things

47
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: whenever hard things come into your life, and reminding yourself

48
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: that you are capable, even at the times your initial

49
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: thought is that you actually are not. The more you believe,

50
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: the more that you can actually begin to align your

51
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: actions with that belief. It's like the more you tell

52
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,399
Speaker 1: yourself something, the more you're going to believe it right.

53
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: And so the more thoughts that you can have based

54
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 1: on the belief that you are trying to create, the

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: easier it will be to lean into that belief and

56
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: to start creating things around you that actually represent that

57
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: belief and that can support it. And I think that's

58
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: the part where someone's forget belief isn't just a nice thought.

59
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: It becomes the way that you speak to yourself when

60
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: things get hard. It becomes the way that you walk

61
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: into a room. It becomes the way that you try

62
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: again after something didn't work. It becomes a way that

63
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 1: you hold yourself through the unknown moments. What is life

64
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: if we only allow ourselves to trust what is already proven,

65
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 1: already obvious, and already say. So much of what is

66
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: beautiful in our lives begins invisibly. A seed doesn't look

67
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: like a flower at first. A dream doesn't look like

68
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: reality at first. A prayer doesn't always look like an

69
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: answer at first. So sometimes the beginning of something miraculous

70
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: looks like nothing is happening at all. And that is

71
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: where belief matters so much. Your belief can carry you

72
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 1: through everything, even when the outcome isn't clear, even when

73
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: the path has not fully formed, when your mind is

74
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: trying to convince you that you cannot. In those moments,

75
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: you actually have this power to choose a thought that

76
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: supports the life that you want instead of the one

77
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: that shrinks you away from it. And the thing is,

78
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: when you're telling yourself I can do hard things. I

79
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: can do hard things over and over again, it's not

80
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: that the hard thing suddenly becomes easier. Actually, what happens

81
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: is you stop meeting the hard thing as someone who

82
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: has already decided that they are incapable. Instead of going

83
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: into it with defeat, you're going into it with this

84
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: opportunity and this idea that this could be possible shifts

85
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: completely the way that you are even interacting with that moment.

86
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: A belief isn't just something that you think once. It's

87
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: a thought that you've repeated enough times that your body

88
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: starts to treat it as truth. It becomes more of

89
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: an instruction. It starts telling you what to attempt, what

90
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 1: to avoid, what feels safe, what feels absolutely impossible, what

91
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 1: kind of love you think you deserve, how visible you

92
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: allow yourself to be, and how much of your life

93
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: you feel brave enough to claim. So, belief is a

94
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: thought that actually has become a rule in your life.

95
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: And this is why we have to be so careful

96
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: with the beliefs that we keep repeating, Because if you

97
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 1: believe you are always rejected, your mind will scan for rejection.

98
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: If you believe you are behind, your mind will keep

99
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: collecting evidence that everyone else is ahead. If you believe

100
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: that things will never work out for you, even the

101
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 1: small openings might go unnoticed because your mind has already

102
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: decided what the story is. And once you decide what

103
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: the story is, you're looking for evidence and the information

104
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 1: to show that that story is the truth. When you

105
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: begin to believe you are capable, You just move differently.

106
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 1: When you begin to believe that life can support you,

107
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,919
Speaker 1: you notice all these little small openings or little signs

108
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: instead of only the obstacles. When you begin to believe

109
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: that you're worthy of something better, you stop tolerating the

110
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: things that constantly make you feel small and look Belief

111
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: does not guarantee the outcome. It's not a magical spell

112
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: that you're doing. But it changes whether you even enter

113
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: the room. It changes whether you send that email. It

114
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: changes whether you ask the question or speak up, or

115
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: begin again, or stay consistent, or walk away or soften

116
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,239
Speaker 1: or try that one more time. Two people can literally

117
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: be given the same opportunity, and the one who believes

118
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: I'm not ready will move completely different to the one

119
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: who believes I can absolutely figure this out. The opportunity

120
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: may be the same, but the belief creates a completely

121
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: different version of the person meeting it. And honestly, doubt

122
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: works in exactly the same way. Doubt is also magnetic.

123
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 1: Doubt pulls you into hesitation. It makes you delay, It

124
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: makes you overthink, It makes you ask for ten more

125
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: signs when really you already know what the next step is.

126
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: It can make you confuse your fear with intuition. Of course,

127
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: doubt isn't always bad. Sometimes dou is information. Sometimes it

128
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 1: asks us to pause and prepare and refine the plan

129
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: or check out what our motives are. But doubt becomes

130
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 1: really dangerous when it becomes part of your identity, when

131
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: it becomes the place that you live from, or the

132
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: voice that you trust more than hope. And that is

133
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: where I think we have to understand the difference between force,

134
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: positivity and chosen belief. Chosen belief is not pretending that

135
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,679
Speaker 1: everything is perfect. It's not denying your pain or acting

136
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: like fear doesn't exist. Chosen belief is saying I don't

137
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: know exactly how this will work out, but I am

138
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 1: so willing to keep moving forward. It's saying I don't

139
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 1: have proof yet, but I refuse to abandon myself. It's

140
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: saying I can feel scared and still act. I can

141
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: feel uncertain and still feel guided. I can have failed

142
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: before and still be worthy of trying again. So belief

143
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: is not certainty, but belief is this commitment that you

144
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: have in the absence of certainty. So if you want

145
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: to begin shifting your beliefs, you can't just repeat affirmations

146
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: that your body doesn't believe yet. You actual have to

147
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: start by becoming curious about the beliefs that are already

148
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: running your life. You have to ask yourself, what do

149
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: I believe about money, about love, about my body, about success,

150
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: about my ability to change, about this ability to be seen,

151
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: about being worthy? Whatever those thoughts are that are repeating

152
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: in your mind, whatever those insecurities are, try and notice

153
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: and observe what are those beliefs I've created around those things.

154
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: It's not just about naming the belief. It's really about

155
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: seeing whatever behavior is attached to it and how you

156
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: move through the world because of it. So if the

157
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: belief is, for example, I'm not disciplined, maybe the behavior

158
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: is that you quick quickly, you avoid structure, you stop

159
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: trusting yourself. So the new belief doesn't have to be

160
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: I'm the most disciplint person in the whole entire world.

161
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: That will probably feel really far away and maybe feel

162
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: too scary to even get to. But the belief could

163
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: be I can build trust with myself through small promises,

164
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: and then every day you keep one tiny promise, and

165
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: that is how belief becomes real. It becomes your evidence

166
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: that you need, because the fact is your mind has

167
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: spent years collecting evidence for this old belief, and so

168
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: now you consciously have to collect evidence for the new one.

169
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: So every time you keep that promise, every time you

170
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: speak up, every time you recover faster, every time you

171
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: choose differently, it becomes part of this new belief that

172
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: you are creating. And the thing that's really magical about

173
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: believing is that it really doesn't cost us anything, but

174
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: the absence of it can literally cost us so much.

175
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: It can cost us years of waiting and shrinking and

176
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: hesitating and calling ourselves realistic and really we're just scared

177
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: of hoping again. I've really noticed in my life that

178
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: belief and believing in things that I cannot see yet

179
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: is one of the softest forms of courage that I've

180
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: had in my life. It doesn't ask anything from you

181
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: except that you keep just that little crack in the

182
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: doorway open inside of your heart, the idea that maybe

183
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 1: life can still surprise me. Maybe my vision isn't able

184
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 1: or capable of seeing what there is to offer. And

185
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: I feel like there's something really sacred in this surrender

186
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: of choosing to believe before the evidence comes, Because usually

187
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: we wait for evidence and then we end up believing.

188
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: But there's something to the surrender or the belief in

189
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: something before you get to see the result, before the applause,

190
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 1: before the thing has formed fully in front of you,

191
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: and the feeling you get when the outcome does happen,

192
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: The depth of that happiness, the depth of that excitement,

193
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: the depth of the joy that you feel from having

194
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: believed in it before you've even seen it. It's just

195
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 1: completely different. I've experienced it in my life. It's so

196
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: it feels so much more beautiful, it feels so much

197
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,119
Speaker 1: more meaningful because so much of our life begins invisibly.

198
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: A seed is still a seed before it becomes a flower,

199
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: a prayer is still a prayer before it becomes an answer,

200
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: and a dream is still a dream before it becomes

201
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: your reality. And so maybe belief is the part of

202
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: us that knows how to see life before it has

203
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: even finished becoming. And also, why would we choose not

204
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: to believe, not in a naive way, but in a

205
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: way that lets us stay open, in a way that

206
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: keeps us from closing our hearts just because something hasn't

207
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: happened yet. Disbelief actually just makes us smaller. You can

208
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: either choose to limit yourself based on being a pessimist

209
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: and based on choosing to believe only what you see

210
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: in front of you, or you can choose to be

211
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: optimist and believe that things are possible beyond your own expectations.

212
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: And I honestly have found in my life having lived

213
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: as both versions of those that the second believing in

214
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 1: magic and believing in the possibilities of the world, you

215
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: wander through life with a better perspective. You end up

216
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: seeing the world differently. And yeah, it can hurt sometimes

217
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 1: when you believe in things don't happen, but I think

218
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: the feeling of not believing is far worse than the

219
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: feeling of believing and it not happening. And I think

220
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: having hope and belief is the anything that really keeps

221
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 1: us going in life. And people might say, oh, but

222
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: you have to be realistic, But what if having believe

223
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: is part of reality. The fact is we end up

224
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 1: receiving whatever we're putting out in the world. That's a fact.

225
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 1: If you end up going out there with a bad attitude, yeah,

226
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: you'll probably receive someone with a bad attitude because you're

227
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: invite that into your life. And so the mere belief

228
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: that what we are or what we think is what

229
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: will become into our life, the mere understanding that who

230
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: we are, what we believe, and what we put out

231
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: into the world is what we will receive back. Just

232
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 1: by knowing that it should change the way that we

233
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: are moving through the world. And so I really hope

234
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: that this encourages you to believe in the magic of

235
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 1: life a little bit more and to give yourself the

236
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: belief that you deserve the grandness of the life that

237
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: you deserve and know that whatever you believe is what

238
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: you get to create. And that's kind of exciting because

239
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: then you realize what you have to work on is

240
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 1: in the external world. It isn't trying to control and

241
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: navigate parts of your life that you actually have no

242
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: control over. It's putting in that focus and that work

243
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: into how can I change the way that I am

244
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: viewing the world? Because that you can control, those thoughts

245
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: are things that you actually can impact. And so I

246
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: hope that this episode was a little reminder of that,

247
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: to believe in a bit of magic your life and

248
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: the magic of things that are unseen, unheard and without evidence,

249
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 1: And for myself Honestly, I think creating new beliefs or

250
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: believing in more has just come with this simple mindset shift.

251
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 1: As soon as I feel resistance in my life. So

252
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: as soon as I notice resistance in my mind of

253
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: I'm not smart enough to do this, or I really

254
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: don't think I can make it through this, it's having

255
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: that thought. That's fine, observing that thought, and then shifting

256
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: it to what do I want to say to myself

257
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: in this moment to make it through? And so I'll

258
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: shift it to no, you are smart enough, you can

259
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 1: handle this. You can do hard things. This is possible.

260
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: And so it's almost letting that negative thought come to you,

261
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: letting that restriction come to you, but then thinking, Okay,

262
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: if I was to expand myself and if I was

263
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: to create an expansive thought or sentence around this, what

264
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: would it look like? And then repeating that after. It

265
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that those thoughts are going to go away,

266
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: but you can observe them and you can correct them,

267
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 1: and that's really where it all starts. So I'm going

268
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 1: to leave you with this little thought. Believe not because

269
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 1: life has given you proof, but because your heart deserves

270
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 1: somewhere beautiful to walk towards. Why would you not believe

271
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,199
Speaker 1: in a world where seed becomes forests, wound become wisdom,

272
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: and mornings keep arriving after the longest nights. Why would

273
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 1: you not give your own life the same chance to

274
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: surprise you. Belief is this bridge between what your eyes

275
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 1: can see and what your soul already knows. And somewhere

276
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 1: between fear and faith there is this tiny door, and

277
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 1: belief is what opens it.
