Fw: [Wcn] Self-fulfilling Prophecy - Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - 3/12/12

[Guest guest]

Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - 3/12/12 - "Self-fulfilling Prophecy" Do you ever catch yourself saying things like, "Nothing ever goes right for me?" If so, pay close attention to what I have to say today. Do you think that nothing ever goes right for you? Do you believe that you are just an unlucky person, and that no matter what you do, you will probably fail? Well, you are right, but not for the reason you think. We've been talking about beliefs for a while

now. You have probably surmised that each one of us has a set of beliefs, and we act in accordance with those beliefs. Now, perhaps you had a few setbacks that you were taught to interpret as failures. Next thing you know, you have a belief about yourself that says, "I just can't succeed, no matter what." Then, in order to make life match up with your belief (which is important for your sanity), you begin to act in ways that reinforce your belief. You may even unconsciously sabotage things, so that you will fail. But you will be acting like you know yourself to be, which is what all of us do. You create what is called a self-fulfilling prophecy. So if you want to change your life, what you need to do is first change your beliefs. And yes, this is possible. Then, you will continue to act like yourself, but you will see yourself differently, so your behavior

will be different. And when you change your behavior, you change the results.
