Here's a trick that I've known about for a while but haven't applied till now. It's based on an NLP belief-changing trick that never worked for me until I applid it in deep meditation:

1. Go deep into meditation
2. State your intention and see how it feels (or hear or whatever).
3. State something you know absolutely to be true (such as "I breathe") and see how that feels. If you don't get the same sense of surety from your intention as this, it means you don't absolutely believe it yet.
4. This process is a little different for everyone: What I do here is feel my intention going "down" and deep within me, until it is planted inside me as firmly as my belief in that I breathe. For some people, the two images of your intention and your belief may overlap and pick up the properties of each other, or your intention is said in your mind with the same confidence and surety that your belief is. Essentially you change the submodalities of the intention, if you're familiar with NLP.

I recently used this to plant the belief that I get what I think about in life (ie confirm belief in IM) and I've been a lot less doubtful. You can also use this to believe in your intentions, like, "I'm getting to x", and/or visualizations.

Remember: you may hear a lot of confidence when you say I breathe, or you may want to imagine yourself breathing with the same sort of confidence or belief as your intention, or you may do as I do and feel it the same way. Everyone has different modalities, including sight, auditory and kinesthetic.

Not to confuse what ALG is saying, some of you may be interested in trying this out if/when you're done with ALG's wonderful trial.
