Why Not Just Believe....

For truly I say to you, If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, move from here to there; and it will move and nothing will be impossible to you

Matthew 17:20

While having dinner with one of my friends the topic of belief arose in a discussion about religion. My friend began to tell me about the works of Jesus and how he could not perform many miracles in his home town because the people did not believe. I have been thinking about how powerful believing is. Knowing something is true despite what you see or feel.

BELIEVE

 1. To accept something as true, genuine or real 

2. To have a firm conviction as the goodness, efficacy, or ability of something

Believing is an verb, not a noun. It is something that you do, and not just something you say. It takes work and here are a few ways to turn your doubt into belief:

1.     See it 

• Go to a quiet place and imagine how it would look, taste, and feel to have what ever it is that you believe. Remember with out a vision the people shall parish. 
• Make a vision board, post pictures or words that inspire you or represent what you want.
• Post positive quotes and affirmations to remind you of what you want to believe

I want to be stylish, fabulous and chic as you can see on my vision board. Now I just need to believe that I am, that's the only way I will be....

2. Write it down

• After you see it you should have a clear picture of what is that you want write an affirmation ( start your affirmation with I am)
• Write your business plan
• Write your goals

I am Stylish, Fabulous and Chic

I say this every morning as I am getting dress to remind me what I want to be.....

3. Do it!

• Now it's time to take action. Speak it, claim it, declare it, walk in it, be it....you do not truly believe unless you are taking action, no matter how bad it seems, how far away, how impossible. The more you believe the harder you work.

Now all that is left is for me to make an efforts when I am shopping to pick items that fit that category, and before I know it I'm stylish, fabulous, and chic.

Take this into consideration:

Your belief determines your action and your action determines your results, but first you have to believe

Mark Victor Hansen

Then he touched their eyes saying " it shall be done to you according to your faith."

Matthew 15:28

Spend the week thinking about what you believe and ask yourself does it line up with the life that you want.... if not you now have the tools to believe in something different.
