Changing the Patterns

.
While working in the garden pulling weeds recently, I realized if you just pull the weeds and don’t get the roots out, the same weeds reappear (grow back) the next week.

So what does this have to do with manifesting what you want? A whole lot! You see some of our thoughts are like weeds, we can get rid of them on the surface, but if we don't remove the beliefs (roots) that gave them life and energy, they simply reappear. As we begin to work towards our goals, often frustration and hopelessness sets in, We try to get rid of our negative thoughts, without dealing with the beliefs. Then seemingly out of nowhere our mind is full of the same thoughts we just decided we would never entertain again.

No matter how many times you rip out the surface thoughts, the roots (beliefs) regenerate the same old thoughts. As we are often very attached to these beliefs, we struggle with letting go of them or changing them. We are usually very identified with our beliefs. Changing your beliefs requires digging much deeper than you conscious mind. We have to go into the subconscious and the core of our being. It may require a good intuitive coach or support group to realize and see our own stuck places.

Many of these erroneous beliefs were given to us before we were 7 years old, hence they are powerful and deeply rooted. The best way to know where you are stuck is to begin to be aware of your thoughts and which ones resonate within your body, If you can feel a thought in your body, it has enormous power for you. This is why you literally have to become what you want to be, not just think or say you want to be or do. By being, you accept that you are already that, and soon your thoughts and beliefs begin to change to conform with your new feelings, you begin to sense the change within your body and mind.

In time you can become what you desire, and have what you want, but it takes conscious effort and focus. It also requires an understanding of the dynamics of beliefs.
