…then no one else will. Regarding success in anything, I think this statement is a fundamental truth. I believe that success is compliant, it is malleable, it is plastic. Success will take the form of whatever we truly believe. If you believe you are a person who can only earn $15.00 an hour, and maybe if you work really hard and go to school (I always love that one) then the universe will submit to that vision. People very rarely make more than they believe they can make. If you believe that $150.00 an hour is what you should make then the universe in the same way will comply. Most of us have a very strong tendency to be defined by where we are right now. It is a very exceptional person that can see beyond their present circumstances, what ever they are. Successful people typically only see themselves as being successful. Conversely low wage earners usually cannot really see themselves making a lot of money. They may fantasize about it, but they don’t really see themselves in a much better place than they are currently.
It is a staple of the Positive Thinking world that ‘If you can conceive it and believe it then you can achieve it’. It’s very simplistic I know, but it’s also very true. It’s so simple in fact, that most people dismiss it as silly. Let me break it down. Obviously for you to achieve anything first you must conceive it in your mind, that’s easy. Belief is much harder. Belief is not simply saying ‘Oh yeah, I believe I can make a million dollars’. Belief is a thought held in your mind that compels you into action or inaction. If you believe that car speeding toward you is not going to stop, you will be compelled to get the hell out of the way. Similarly if you truly believe you are going to make a million dollars you’re going to formulate a plan and execute that plan. You are going to get the necessary education you need. You are going to get up early and work late when your friends are out having fun. You are going to sacrifice things that other people have now, in order to have what others people will not be able to have later. True belief is a motivator.
If you really believe you will be successful in your marriage, business, or child rearing you will make choices that support that belief. You may ask ‘How do I get that belief?’ I think it starts with a simple truth, that you are capable, and you are worthy. You may not currently possess the skills necessary to make a lot of money or be a great parent, or piano player, and that’s OK. You must know however, that you are capable of acquiring those skills. Great skill is very rarely present instantly. Most of the times skill is developed over time, and often a great deal of time. Developing skill is a matter of a series of choices. Turn off the TV, sign up for a class, read a book, do a push up, walk around the block, make a phone call, practice your instrument. These are choices anybody can make. Successful people make the right choices often, and unsuccessful people make the wrong choices often. If you want more for yourself, it all starts with making an effective choice. Anybody can do that.
As far as being worthy…it’s really rather basic…you are worthy because you are here. You as you are, represent a spectacular crowning achievement of creative intelligence. The raw materials of which you are made, are no different than that of Bill Gates, Micheal Jordan, Micheal Jackson, Mother Teresa, or Oprah. We are all a blank canvas, and we are all given a wonderful selection of paints and brushes. It is up to you and me what we do with them. There is nothing wrong with living an average life, and if that’s what you want then you can paint that picture for yourself. It’s really up to you. However I believe that most people who live average lives do so out of fear or lack of imagination.
I think most of us are afraid of looking silly, being told no, not fitting in, feeling inadequate. So we find a comfort zone we dig in and plant ourselves there. Then we teach our children to do the same, because we don’t want them to be hurt. It’s hard to feel inadequate when all you do are things that are easy for you. Most people will do just about anything to avoid discomfort. Fear of the unknown will make people stay in jobs they hate, and relationships that sometimes put them in grave physical danger. The need for familiarity can literally be a killer.
I am here to tell you this…you are capable, and you are worthy. Suspend your disbelief and act as if this were true. Small choices you can make right now, over time can eventually make your life truly remarkable. I am not saying that great wealth is the path for everyone, because it isn’t. I know everyone doesn’t want to be a rock star, nor should everyone. But I am convinced that each and everyone of you can live a wonderful, abundant, happy, and fulfilling life. You will be on that path when you believe you can.
