What you tell yourself most frequently, you will believe. What you truly believe, you will incorporate into every aspect of your life. It doesn't matter if it is objectively true or not. What you continue to tell yourself, day after day, becomes true for you and has a profound effect on your life.
Great power lives in the fact that you can choose what to tell yourself, again and again, in the thousands of moments that make up each day. With focus and intention, you can upgrade your beliefs about yourself.
You can upgrade your beliefs about what is possible for you. And by so doing, you will in fact expand your access to the very best of your possibilities.
You'll go precisely as far as you believe you will go. So there's every reason to believe the very best.
With what you tell yourself, choose to sell yourself, again and again, on your best possibilities. For when you consistently believe something to be true in your life, you will indeed make it true.
Thank God for this being true. I use steps 6 & 7 daily as a part of my step 10 to acheive this. If I left my belief to my own thinking I'd have given up by now. Thank you, Larry. In the ditty of Joni's.. "Your Higher Power has not given you a longing to do that which you have no ability to do." Not only do I love these notions but I need them too. They help me keep my faith that my Higher Power will indeed perform miracles.. If it be His will & for me to find out I have to keep putting one foot in front of the other, chopping wood & carrying water. Faith without works is dead ;) Godblessings, Danielle x

Thanks, Larry absolutely bang on. This is for me the basis of Steps 10 & 11. I become a basket case if I do not practise these 2 steps. I am either spiritually fit or spiritually sick, depending on what my mind is focusing on.
