Hi KellerRP:
KellerRP asks: "How can someone strengthen a belief?" KellerRP beliefs can be strengthened in many ways. Here's some of the tried and true methods: *Find evidence that will strongly support a belief. *Process or integrate any of the belief's counter beliefs, doubts, and counter feelings. Only do this processing or integrating if the belief passes passes the Self-Defeating Beliefs Test. Some counter beliefs, doubts, and counter feelings may be valid. *Acting in actual life situations "as if" you believe the belief can help strengthen that belief. When you complete a task, where you acted "as if" you believed the belief, the belief then takes on more credibility. You begin to notice evidence around you that the belief is true. *Connect a belief to a new behavior pattern and habituate that behavior pattern. When the behavior pattern feels natural and becomes habituated, the connected belief will be strengthened. Example: You believe you can make your bed and go ahead and make beds until it's a habit. You'll strengthen your belief that you can make beds. *Practice visualizing acting from a belief to help habituate it and allow it to feel natural. Practice acting from a belief in real life as much as possible because this will habituate it and permit it to feel natural. *Answer Miracle Questions involving your belief as already being strongly believed. Example: "Suppose you went to bed and a miracle happened. You strongly believe: ___________________________. After you strongly believed this belief, what would you notice? What would you be doing differently? How would feel? What would others notice? What might you do next? *After you integrate or process a belief's counters and doubts, use trance to install the belief like a hypnotic suggestion. *Test your belief's credibility in various "states". If you find doubts and counters appearing in these states, then process and integrate the counters and doubts in those states. Take care, Steve |
