Choosing our Beliefs

When you’re hungry, suddenly every restaurant sign jumps out at you. When your car starts making a strange noise, repair shops and garages seem to appear everywhere you go.

And when you quietly doubt your ability to succeed, you’ll notice obstacles at every turn. Not because they’re more real—but because your mind is attuned to look for them.

Our perception shapes our motivation long before we take action.

I recently read an article that said, “What you see determines your beliefs.” At first, that didn’t sit right with me. The more I thought about it, the more I realized why:

We aren’t shaped by what we see.

We see what we already believe.

If I hold the belief that life is hard and money is scarce, then that’s all I will notice—even though it’s not the whole truth. The world contains both difficulty and ease, both scarcity and abundance. What I experience most is whatever I choose to focus on.

When I recognize that feelings of lack are often illusions created by an old belief, I can choose a different lens. I can choose to look for possibility, abundance, and small everyday miracles.

Every day we have the chance to move forward with a new perspective. If motivation feels hard, pause. Notice how you’re interpreting the situation. Ask yourself gently whether that interpretation comes from an old, limiting belief.

And then—choose again.

Choose the belief that aligns with who you truly are and the life you want to create.
