Overcoming conditionings and beliefs

Perhaps the hardest thing to overcome is the beliefs and conditionings that are ingrained in us since childhood.

Because we just function according to it, without ever realising it.

Perhaps the most dangerous thing a parent can transfer to their child is their own beliefs and conditionings…

For instance, I was told that money is bad..that people who make a lot of money do so in unethical ways…that they’re always stressed out and miserable, and therefore you should not seek it.

What is the truth?

The truth is that money buys freedom. Freedom from the struggles of the worldly life. Money even prevents conflicts in relationships…

I was told that in order to make money, I have to “work hard” and put in a lot of “effort”.

What is the truth?

The truth is that hard work and effort is not even part of the equation.

I was told that I’m common…and that I’ve no talents worth pursuing…

What is the truth?

I have some unique talents, by virtue of being born unique, and it took me 7 years to find out.

7 f*cking years!

I had no confidence.. because I always believed that I’m common,

despite everyone else who has worked with me in the past telling me the complete opposite.

It took me quite a lot of number of years to undo these conditionings… to undo these beliefs.

The problem though, is that, these beliefs are “invisible”.

You can only get to them by way of questioning…and a deep desire to know the truth about you, your situation, your mind.

I would happily credit @Kapil Gupta MD for the much needed exposure!
