Just seeing a belief for what it is -- a thought in your head -- begins to dismantle its power over you. Acknowledging the thought and letting it go frees you even further. And best of all: when you look what believing that thought has cost you and the people in your life, and really sit with that cost, you become free to watch something else come up that will inspire you. An entirely new way of being. That's where the real power is: seeing what quality would make a difference, and being that quality.

In my experience, the new ways of being that really make a difference are qualities that you take on and are 100% responsible for, as opposed to declaring intentions that other people will think or do as you wish. For instance, you might transform strangers don't like to be talked to into I am deeply related and connected to all people. You would actually be generating relatedness and connection right now in the moment, not waiting until some future time when you have figured it out or are more worthy. That's just an example -- being related and connected inspires me; your new way of being would be one that inspires you.

Best wishes to you for freedom and power!
