Did you know that the Values and Beliefs we have in life adds up to shape who we are and how we perceive things in life?

Well, experiences we have throughout our lives are filtered by us at different stages and stored in our memory according to what we believe as realities of those experiences.

Infact, our Mind Filters are very important in holding just what we want, and discarding the others. This is good, because otherwise we'd be storing too much information and in reality, this cannot be healthy in any way.

Now, how does all this relate to Mind Perception?

Well, to simplify things here, I'll illustrate this with a couple of real life examples that show different Mind Perception, and the corresponding results that were directly related to the perception of the people involved from the very start.

Ok, in this case, two fitness training instructors were once asked to take part in an assessment to evaluate a group of people and to report back on the results afterwards. The results would include information such as recorded weight loss by members of the group over a period of time, levels of motivation, levels of confidence, eagerness to participate, etc etc.

The first trainer was briefed from the very start by the employer and told that these people were really difficult to get along with, and that as a group, everything had been done to motivate and encourage them but that the results were very poor and discouraging.

So of course this Trainer went into this engagement with the perception that "well, I'll try my best but don't expect anything different". So, as he perceived, that was the result he achieved. In other words, the group performed no better than what was originally anticipated.

Again, the next Trainer was briefed about the same group, and was told how fantastic this group of people were, and how they were the best at everything they tried, he was told that they came top and were just working their way to achieve the goals that were set for them.

Well, you can guess what happened in this instance because when the results came out in relation to their performance, they were fantastic and brilliant in everything that they were scheduled to do. Compare this to the previous case, the Trainer here was really fired up and motivated to work with this group towards achieving their success. From the very start, he personally perceived that this group were winners and so he wasn't going to let them down.

As the saying goes, Henry Ford once said," if you think you can or if you think you can't either way you're always right". Indeed perception is one key factor that shapes the way we think and the way we act in relation to different circumstances in our lives.This includes any limiting beliefs, inhibitions, negative self-talk etc. Positive outlook on life leads to a motivated spirit, confidence in your abilities, happiness, resourcefulness and all this can shape the way you move to achieve results in your life.

Now then, here are key points to bear in mind that will allow you to breakthrough negative perception and limiting beliefs, allowing you to create the life you deserve.

1) Positive Perception and Outlook in life

Endeavour to be open-minded in your daily life, and before you discarded things, perhaps due to previous limiting beliefs, think them through carefully and consider how they affect you or your circumstances. Carefully meditate on issues before saying "I can't, and use your mind power to direct your actions in accordance with your inner desires.

2) Practice Affirmations.

During the day at various intervals, repeat affirmations such as "I Can Do This, With My Will Power and Determination".

3) Persistence is the Fruit of Success.

Be persistent in pursuing that which you genuinely believe and not limit yourself just for the sake of it, enquire from within and ensure that your Mind Power, that is your inner mind on a deeper level, is in harmony with your outward actions.

Most of problems in life stem from the fact that the mind is thinking one thing and the body is directed to act or do another. When you master inner harmony and your mind works in tune with your body, that's when you truly grasp your Mind's Unlimited Wonderful Potential to lifestyle freedom.

So, take it is a step at a time, and watch your companions. Surround yourself with people who motivate and lift you up, understanding that you are truly on your way to discovering and living your very own uniqueness. Success in your desires will come when you put your mind to it and genuinely action it with persistence and determination with your 'WILL'.
