Our core beliefs serve as ground rules or operating guidelines for our lives. They are often formed early in adolescence and are barely recognized or changed, which ensures we take them into adulthood, along with the emotional baggage they hold. Our core beliefs are what make us who we are. They can feel as inextricably linked to us as our gender or name. Consider changing your name; it simply does not feel right. The same is true of our beliefs; we've been wearing them for so long that adopting new ones feels unnatural, and thus change takes time. Our core beliefs have the appearance of truth and can be difficult to change. They are the source of our ongoing insecurity, self-doubt, depressed moods, and constant desire for external validation and approval. They can result in ineffective behavioral patterns such as people-pleasing and perfectionist tendencies. Additionally, we pay attention to events and circumstances that reinforce our core beliefs and disregard those that contradict them. Limiting beliefs function similarly to our inner "walls," which are impenetrable and prevent us from experiencing new possibilities in life. It is critical to remember that core beliefs are not absolute truths.

We all have things that still bother us from our past, memories that stand out and influence how we behave and react to our current lives. These memories influence our personalities are our ability to connect with others. Emotional wounds can be healed, and once they are we often feel so much better. Try this 5-minute exercise to help yourself overcome past hang-ups and move forward with clarity and comfort, no self-help book required. _______________________________________________________________________ About Me: I am a Leadership and High-Performance Coach and Psychology researcher.

So you set a goal and you were convinced you would take action towards this goal. Yet, a few days, weeks, or months have gone by and you haven't done what you said what you would do. You want to accomplish the goal, but you can't seem to actually do the things. What is going on? You procrastinate, you put off, you avoid. Why would you avoid doing something you actually want?

We learn tools to create an increased perception of reward and decreased perception of effort. Utilizing the motivation equation to our benefit, rather than detriment, to accomplish the things we want to do. _______________________________________________________________________ About Me: I am a Leadership and High-Performance Coach and Psychology researcher.
