If any of these statements ring true for you, it may be time to take your destiny into
your own hands by dissolving the beliefs that sabotage your success and happiness.
What is a belief? It is a perception of reality, or something you were told that you had
no reason to doubt. How do you know that you have a self-defeating belief? If you
are feeling some way you dont like feeling, you are probably believing something
thats not true.
Choose one limiting belief and ask yourself these questions:

Do I believe that?

Why do I believe that?

What seems true about that?

What might concern me if that belief were gone? (What might happen that I
would not like?)
