Welcome to Bob Proctor
Understanding The Law of Belief
The Law of Belief states that whatever you believe with conviction and feeling becomes your reality. It is not until you change your beliefs that you can begin to change your performance and your reality.
Having faith is another way to state this law. All of the religions of the world talk about one's ability to always keep faith, as being a key to success and happiness. Whether you choose to follow religious dogma or not, the Law of Belief is something which can either keep you from achieving it or help you achieve success. - if you live in accordance with the law is what it depends on.
You have heard the naysayers and the doubters out there who always proclaim, "I'll believe it when I see it!" In reality, it is the other way around; it is not until you believe it, that you will see it (no matter what "it" is)!
Perhaps self-limiting beliefs are the most detrimental of all thoughts, since they absolutely will keep you from the success that you may want, but don't believe you can attain. There is an old expression that states "whether you think you can or you can't, your right!" This saying is altogether congruent with the Law of Belief. Let me explain through the use of the following hypothetical situation:
At your work you are up for a promotion. You feel you are ready and have worked hard, but do not believe with conviction that you will get the promotion. Perhaps you feel there are other candidates that are better or more qualified, or that you are indispensable in your current role (now there is a mistaken belief!) or it may be some other negative thought pattern. If these are the beliefs that you are retaining in your mind, it is almost guaranteed that you will not get the promotion. Why? Because your self-limiting beliefs will complot to hold you back!
The Law of Belief, when understood and practiced, can help anyone to manifest those things in life that they truly want. The trick is that you need absolute clarity on your objectives; a strong plan to get you there and then must believe that you are destined to achieve them. You must continuously reinforce this belief in your own mind, as time passes.
One of the greatest challenges is to persevere and sustain focus on your goals, even when faced with seemingly insurmountable obstacles or setbacks. The interesting thing in these circumstances is that we tend to observe the world from a very narrow point of view - which is that obstacle are negative. In fact, obstacles help us to grow and can be positive! Sometimes things go awry and it isn't until much later on that we discover that, whatever the setback was, it was there for good reason. We learn and become stronger from the experience.
By maintaining faith, by continuing to live in accordance with the Law of Belief, we are able to achieve our goals, although the path may be somewhat different than we had originally thought! If however, we give up at the first sign of trouble, in other words, our faith or belief fail us, then we can never hope to reach our goals.
If you can learn to persevere in the face of all obstacles, then eventually you will create the reality that you desire.
What You Can Do
There are two action exercises, which you can put in place at present, to help you in this area:
1. Bob-Proctor would tell you to begin to believe immediately, that you are destined to be successful in whatever areas you desire. Get very clear and focused on your true desires, make plans to achieve them and then believe, with absolute conviction, that you will achieve them. Once you believe it, the universe will conspire to help you achieve it.
2. Get into the habit of acting as though you have already accomplished your goals and are the success you want to be. Your new behaviors will influence your beliefs, which in turn will help you to manifest your desires!
Achieving success has no mystery - it is available to all of us. One need only be mindful of, understand and, most significantly, live in accordance with, Universal Law! Believing that you will attain the levels of success that you truly want, is the first step.
