If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.

The window of illusion is shattered when you realize that the beliefs you’ve been holding onto are not the truth of who you are. Regardless of what you were told, know this: "nothing is real to you unless you make it real ". You shift your perception of reality when you take charge of your beliefs. Taking charge of what know as your truth, frees you from the bondage of your past beliefs . Living an empowered life you uncover hidden traps that get in the way of your expansion.
Sometime in your life you may have been told or made to feel that you are not good enough. As long as you make it your reality by continuing to believe it to be your truth, you cannot succeed in life. Nothing is true unless it works and it has to work for you, not for someone else. You and you alone are responsible for your life.
God is first cause to every idea. All God wants to do is expressed Itself as you. You are God individualized. When you change your thinking, you create a new idea (cause) that brings forth a new experience (effect).
Once you embody the truth of who you are, you become empowered to create new beliefs that serve you. As you make decisions from this new place of authority, more good unfolds in your life immediately because your experiences are mirror images of your new beliefs. Your reality has to change to reflect your new beliefs . That’s the way the Universe works.
Develop a new consciousness of yourself. Create new beliefs and start right now to give yourself the means to emerge into a world of greater possibility.
Most of us have barriers of some kind or another from the past that get in the way of our happiness. Letting go of your old beliefs empowers you because you activate Infinite Intelligence, your higher self, when you create new beliefs.
If you can't recognize what is a belief that no longer serves you ask yourself this?
What challenge shows up in your life on a regular basis? Are you staying in a career because you were told it’s risky to change jobs in this economy? Or are you doing something because your family did it and you are miserable? Or, are you going from one relationship to another looking for the perfect person you believe will complete you? Observe what in your life you do without enthusiasm or depletes your energy whenever you think about it . Then look at why you are still doing it over and over again. Your answer will be what you believe to be true about yourself or about what you do.
Changing your beliefs is necessary if you want to grow. Otherwise, you will continue to get what you've always gotten. And, what keeps you experiencing the same old stuff are old beliefs that you have accepted as truth.
Create your own good. Empower yourself and bring forth what you want, when you want it.
