Okay, so when I last left off I left you wondering about what else you could do about getting beyond your limited beliefs about your dream. (Remember those? I call them the “yeah buts”. “I could travel the world, but...” “I could find my perfect mate, but..” “I could have the perfect job, but..” “I could be happy, but..”)
The very best way to overcome the negative thinking is to get yourself so excited about your dream that you are exhilarated by it. You will find that often that excitement will slowly replace the negativity. Your dream is based in love and your limited beliefs are based in fear. Love is hundreds times stronger than fear. Let love fill your being and the fear will often merely disappear.
Here are two exercises to help you strengthen your dream. The first is to spend 10 minutes each morning thinking about your dream. Imagine it is already here. Feel exactly how you will feel when it is here. Fill your body with the excitement and good feeling. Let yourself send that wonderful energy out into the world.
Another way to let excitement overtake the negativity is to create a Vision Map. Find images or words that represent what you want in your life. You can find pictures from magazines, from the internet, or from your own photo library. You can create the words on the computer or cut them out of magazines. Put the most inspiring objects on a piece of cardstock. (My favorite size is the 12” x 12” scrapbooking paper. I am also playing with the idea of using a photo board so I can refresh it often.) Hang your Vision Map someplace very visible. Whenever you see it during the day, pause and recollect your dream. Imagine yourself having all that is there.
The best part about this work is each step you take will bring you one step closer to feeling more joyful. You are erasing the fear in that area of your life. Fear is only holding you back and keeping you from living your life with love and joy. Enjoy the process!
