Why Limiting Beliefs Are So Comfortable

They’ve been with you since childhood. They feel like a part of who you are. But self-limiting beliefs hurt you and stop you from achieving your goals. So why is it so hard to get rid of them? 

That’s Not Just How You Are 

We all know the person who says, “Well, that’s just how I am.” You may want to help them grow and improve, but they refuse. In their minds, they’ve never going to change - that’s just how they are. 

Actually, they’re half right. 

Yes, they are how they are in that moment because of programming that’s taken place through time, experience and habit. But that programming wasn’t pre-determined, and it isn’t permanent.

The reason that a lot of people hold themselves back from achieving their goals is because they are repeating the only habits they’ve ever known. This familiarity feels safe, and that’s why even destructive, limiting beliefs can feel so comfortable. 

All Your Beliefs Operate Together

Remember that inside your mind is your paradigm: all of the beliefs you have about yourself, which began forming in early childhood. These beliefs bind together and tangle up inside of you like the inner fibres of a golf ball. 

To change your paradigm you have to pull at many different strands, unpick the knots and untangle the mess that’s trapped inside. Only then you can start to overlay the empowering beliefs that will get you to the goals that you want to achieve. 

This transformation not only requires intense hard work and persistence, in most cases it also calls you to go against what’s called your family paradigm. 

Family Ties

Biologically we are built to conform to our tribe, our families and caregivers. If your family had a negative money mindset growing up - one of fear, anxiety or shame, it’s almost guaranteed that you’ve inherited that negativity into your own money mindset. 

When your goal is to be in a money-positive place, it can feel like you’re going against your family. You know what you want and you may even have the courage to go out and get it, but then you feel pulled back towards your familiar family paradigm. 

Many people prefer to stay in the pain of their money problems because breaking away from the family paradigm brings the fear of no longer fitting in. 

How do I know this?

Because I’ve been through it. 

If you’ve heard my story before, you probably know that I had a powerfully negative money experience when I was four. I learned at that time that: 

1. Money was important.
2. I didn’t have any.

I developed the view that there were rich people and poor people, and I was one of the poor people. “I’m poor,” took hold in my paradigm as a self-limiting belief that would stay with me for two decades. 

When your paradigm holds the limiting belief that says “I’m poor,” no strategies or financial planning can get you into financial prosperity. You must get to the real root of the problem to find a long-lasting solution... otherwise you’ll keep running into the same money problems over and over again.

What’s On The Other Side of Your Comfort Zone? 

The amazing thing about clearing your money blocks from your paradigm is that it empowers you to finally step out of your comfort zone for good. This is the space you need to be in if you really want to grow your business and make money doing what you love.
