The Beliefs that Follow Us

by | Jul 2, 2026 | Blog | 0 comments

It can be an overachiever’s greatest challenge to name the beliefs that have mistakenly fueled their efforts… and the greatest opportunity to finally gain what they’ve been searching for all this time….

A mentor of mine recently challenged me to let go of a belief that I had been clinging to for years.

Not only is it untrue, but the belief feels like a dark cloud that follows me everywhere.

It can cripple my confidence and keep me from recognizing opportunity.

We’ve all been held back by a lie that feels true deep down in our bones.

Our challenge is to name the belief and respect its impact in our lives.

This simple recognition decreases its influence.  

While it’s not a one-time event, once we name it and diminish its strength, we are then free to begin the process of letting go.
