- 0:55the lesson. Hello, my friends from all across the globe, and welcome

- 1:48version of yourself, and so you're in the right place. If you are

- 2:28if you know you know before I get started, each and every week
- 2:30I make a deposit into the bank of you. It is something I do
- 2:35on purpose, and the purpose is it's important for you to affirm yourself.
- 2:38It's important for you to start your day and command your morning, and I
- 2:45do so by way of affirmations. And so this week's affirmation is, despite
- 2:53what others think, I believe in myself. Despite what others think, I
- 3:02believe in myself. Despite what others think, I believe in myself. Now,
- 3:14let's get ready for this week's episode of the Your Enriched Self podcast.
- 3:38So I'm starting to believe watching this belief system on display that the true underdog
- 3:45of every story is the person that did not believe in themselves. So,
- 3:50if you are out here right now suffering in silence, meaning you don't believe
- 3:54in yourself, this episode is for you. And I have to say that
- 3:59I've been there and I still have moments where I doubt myself. But I'm
- 4:04telling you it is a slippery slope, and it puts you in a place
- 4:09of underdog, not because others have placed you there, but simply because you
- 4:14have put yourself in those shoes. And so what I was talking about the
- 4:18onset of the podcast is this amazing story that's playing itself out. And what
- 4:25makes this story amazing, the story of Dion Sanders and the Colorado the Buffalo
- 4:30Team is a story of belief. I don't know if you have heard some
- 4:36of his in locker room or his speeches to his team on and off the
- 4:44field, but it is amazing that he has poured so much of what he
- 4:49believes into those individuals that they now have enough belief to run the engine of
- 4:56their lives. And that's what I want you to walk away from this episode.
- 5:00I encourage you to go listen to some of his speeches and his conversations
- 5:04with his team, But the most important conversation you're gonna have, the one
- 5:09that's going to matter the most, is the one that you're having with yourself.
- 5:13You're gonna have to be your inner coach in this season if you are
- 5:16going through a season where you are struggling to believe in yourself. And that's
- 5:20what I want to talk about today. So first of all, I'll just
- 5:25say that beliefs, belief systems, they serve as the driving force behind whatever
- 5:33it is you are doing or you're gonna do. So if right now you're
- 5:38in a stagnant space, it is because your belief system, good battering different
- 5:43is the driving force behind it. And so if you want what's on the
- 5:47front end to look differently, we need to do some work on the back
- 5:50end, and that's what this podcast is all about. We gotta walk it
- 5:55out, we gotta work it out, and we gotta figure out what we
- 5:59need to do Individu Julie so we can be more enriched. And it starts
- 6:03with this question. Just answering this question straight away, did you know that
- 6:09you have limiting beliefs? And you should be raising your hand right now,
- 6:14because I'm raising my hand. I do have limiting beliefs. And here's the
- 6:18thing about that statement. Whether you're answering yes or you're hesitating, it's important
- 6:26to note that everyone has limiting beliefs. And that's a reminder to me and
- 6:34should be to you, that we're not perfect. The people that you see
- 6:42going after the thing that you don't want to go after or you're afraid to
- 6:46go after, it's not that they're better than you. It's not that they're
- 6:50more perfect. They're going with the imperfections. The thing is you can't see
- 6:56that because you're not close enough to their story to see the imperfections, just
- 7:03like they're not close enough to your story to understand your challenges. But all
- 7:09you do is you watch as people go out and achieve, and you start
- 7:15to believe what's possible for them, and forget that you're just like everybody else,
- 7:21figuring it out as you go. So let's talk about limiting beliefs,
- 7:26because I've mentioned it here a time or two on this podcast, and I'm
- 7:30sure you've heard of limiting beliefs. So limiting beliefs, just think about limiting
- 7:34beliefs are as negative thoughts, Limiting beliefs as beliefs that don't help you build.
- 7:42Remember we said that a belief system is what's a driving force behind for
- 7:48some people, that limiting belief is not going to take you anywhere. It's
- 7:55like putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle. You have a diesel and you
- 8:01put unletted fuel, or if you have unletted and you put diesel fuel,
- 8:05you're going to destroy the system that fuels you ahead. You're going to destroy
- 8:11the driving force. So you got to understand the fuel that you need.
- 8:16Negativity is not the fuel that you need, because it's going to limit how
- 8:20you get to where you get to, and it's sometimes going to hold you
- 8:24back from achieving the goals that you intend to achieve. And these limiting beliefs
- 8:31come from your past experiences, whether it's with a person, a place,
- 8:35or a thing. It comes with the negative self talk that you have started
- 8:43having conversations with yourself. That's why I said, you gotta work on that
- 8:46inner coach. And it also comes from the opinion of others, the opinion
- 8:52of others, which can be very detrimental to your future, to your dreams.
- 9:01Here's what I'm gonna tell you. Limiting beliefs must be challenged. They
- 9:05must be challenged. That is the only way you're going to overcome them.
- 9:11You cannot allow them to keep placating in your life and expect a different outcome.
- 9:16You at some point are going to have to stand up and challenge these
- 9:20belief systems. Now, before you challenge them, you have to understand what
- 9:26are you thinking? What are those limiting beliefs. One might be I'm not
- 9:33good enough. You might be watching someone achieve something and because they're in the
- 9:39driver's seat in your mind of achieving, you believe you're not enough to get
- 9:43to that space. Another one is I'll never be successful. One thing I
- 9:48dislike is these absolutes. And I don't know if you remember, from like
- 9:54maybe second third grade, when you had your first true false exercise for like
- 10:00a test to assess your knowledge to see if you got the information. And
- 10:05one of the first rules of true or false is absolutes. So when you
- 10:09start saying I am never going to be successful, that is already a false
- 10:16those words like always and never when you put those words, especially when you
- 10:20put those words with something negative, I will never be successful, I will
- 10:24never have enough. When you start to put those absolutes, you can automatically
- 10:30count those as false. I'm not smart enough, I'm not worthy enough of
- 10:35love, of whatever it is that you feel you are lacking in your life,
- 10:41and I am not capable of change. Notice, all of those things
- 10:46tell you what you're not, and if you buy into that narrative, it's
- 10:52gonna be hard to take that information and fuel it into a driving force to
- 10:58move you ahead. When I talk about challenging those beliefs, you almost have
- 11:03to set each one of those limitations aside and go find something that counteracts at
- 11:11When you challenge the limiting beliefs and you replace them with more positive ones,
- 11:16you got to start by first, as I mentioned, identifying the beliefs,
- 11:20you also want to examine the evidence for or against that belief. For example,
- 11:28I'll never be successful. What evidence do you have right now that says
- 11:33you will never be successful. You may have evidence that says you aren't successful
- 11:39when you tried it before, but you didn't try it this new way,
- 11:43So you don't have evidence to say that this new way, this new approach
- 11:48is going to be a failed You have a lesson from a previous experience,
- 11:54and so you don't have any evidence that goes for this belief system, and
- 12:01so it's a wash again. As I mentioned, you have to replace the
- 12:05belief system that is negative with more positive beliefs. For example, I am
- 12:13enough. One of the things I say to my clients that believe that they
- 12:16can't get started because they don't have all the things is you have what you
- 12:24need to get started right now. You are enough, just as you are
- 12:31to do the thing that you are aspiring to do. You don't need to
- 12:35create anything new, you don't need to build anything new. You just need
- 12:37to show up as you and that is enough. And so that's what is
- 12:45so critical in the season. If you don't believe in yourself, who's gonna
- 12:50believe in you. I've watched this Colorado Buffalo story play out so many different
- 12:56ways, and there are a lot of people. Let afford this coach Dion
- 13:01Sanders, right, there's a lot of people that like the program he's building,
- 13:05and they admire his ability to pour into these men and challenge their thinking
- 13:13and challenge them on the field so they can be better and do better.
- 13:18But then there's a lot of people who don't believe. There are people in
- 13:22media that have come against this coach and his team. I remember a couple
- 13:26of weeks ago Vegas where all the betting goes on Vegas betted against this team.
- 13:33So there's a lot of people that are going to be naysayers in the
- 13:37story called Your Life. Why should you then be another one of those naysayers.
- 13:43I have watched this coach week after week say I believe he has challenged
- 13:50some of the media by asking them point blank in his media, in his
- 13:54press circuit do you believe? And the thing about it is he's not doing
- 14:03that so that he can use that to fuel. He hasn't a fuel,
- 14:07but he's getting people. I don't know people are getting it, but I
- 14:09certainly am getting the lesson that you have to believe in yourself, in your
- 14:16program, in your life, in whatever it is that you're aspiring to do.
- 14:22The thing about belief is that it's not an overnight success. Belief isn't
- 14:28a microwave moment. Belief requires time and energy. It requires positive self talk,
- 14:39it requires affirmations, It requires a lot to get to that point of
- 14:45belief. It's not an easy thing. I don't believe what this man is
- 14:50doing and what he's showing the world comes with ease. As a matter of
- 14:52fact, I've watched some of his career. I'm not gonna say sit here
- 14:56and say that I've been a fan from day one, but I've watched this
- 15:01man be consistent. I've watched him use the same language to communicate who he
- 15:07is and what he believes. And now we're seeing that play itself out.
- 15:13What language are you using? You want to achieve something, but you keep
- 15:18falling back into the old language, which is the old belief system, which
- 15:22has old evidence. It's a cold case that never got solved because there's no
- 15:28evidence to prove that what you believe is right. It's sitting there as another
- 15:35cold case of something you think is true, something you believe to be true,
- 15:41but you have no evidence to prove that that is a truth. And
- 15:46you have stacks and stacks of cold cases of belief systems, cold cases of
- 15:52scenarios, cold cases of past relationships, cold cases that are drawing you away
- 16:00from identifying your newfound truth. Something about belief systems that we also must know
- 16:11is that there is a factor of patients. And I watched that play itself
- 16:15out. Now I'm gonna say, I'm gonna be honest and transparent here.
- 16:19I jumped on the bandwagon because again I was never following Colorado football. I'm
- 16:25not gonna sit here and pretend with you, but I jumped on the bandwagon.
- 16:30I wanted to see. This was my first time watching a Colorado football
- 16:36game, or Colorado versus Colorado State. There was a rivalry. There was
- 16:38a lot of chatter in the week. There was a lot of exchanges between
- 16:42the coaches, and then it was game day and it was a Saturday night.
- 16:47It was already ten thirty Eastern my time when this game would start.
- 16:51There was a lot of infighting that started in the media that came on the
- 16:55field. There was a lot of crowd energy, the twelfth man out there,
- 17:00there was a lot happening, talk about being overstimulated, and the game
- 17:04would go on and on and on in double overtime, and there was a
- 17:12point when Dion's Buffaloes were not executing as I'm sure they had planned. They
- 17:19were down in the third quarter bad, And I'll be honest with you,
- 17:26that was a tough moment, right because you're you know, I'm going for
- 17:30this team. I want to see them when, I want to see them
- 17:32do their thing, and I'm watching them slowly deteriorate from second to third quarter,
- 17:37and I bow out. I turned the game. I turned off the
- 17:41game, and I go watch something else. I fall asleep. I wake
- 17:44up. When I wake up, they are now in the second overtime.
- 17:49They had already went through overtime, and the teams were tied, and they
- 17:53were going into double overtime. They were into double overtime, and I watched
- 18:00remarkable plays be executed by the Buffaloes, and the team would end up winning
- 18:07that game. By no stretch of the imagination was that an easy win.
- 18:17By no stretch of the imagination was it easy to watch. I remember in
- 18:23the third quarter when I was watching the game and I was watching The Twelfth
- 18:27Man. He she they were all just all the wind had left their sale
- 18:36and they were just floating by the energy had subsided. Why am I saying
- 18:41all this? I'm saying all this because there's a point in your journey of
- 18:45creating belief systems, sustaining belief systems, maintaining belief systems when it doesn't feel
- 18:53like it's gonna happen. There's no way it's gonna happen. I don't know.
- 18:56I don't know how it's possible. I don't know if it's possib well,
- 19:00I don't know when it is possible. I don't think it is possible
- 19:03ever, Right, going back to the absolutes, and I'm here to tell
- 19:08you you've got to stay in it. That's your moment of grit, that's
- 19:14your moment of resilience. That's your moment going back to all the positive self
- 19:21talk, that inner coach that reminds you of who you are, those affirmations
- 19:26that give you the power, those affirmations that become the driving force behind your
- 19:37motivation to stay in it, to do it, to be in it,
- 19:41and not to abandon yourself when you're at a point where it's easy to do
- 19:45that. And I walked away from the game. I came back, of
- 19:49course, like I said, they won the game. And it was the
- 19:53thing that Dion said at the end when they asked him, what did you
- 19:57learn about this game? And he said patience, And right then and there,
- 20:03I got another lesson about beliefs. It's going to require you to be
- 20:07patient. It's not going to be written in the stars. It's not going
- 20:11to be written with no errors and no mistakes. All the things happened,
- 20:15there were penalties on both sides. Like I said, there was some fighting,
- 20:19there was exchange of words, there was injuries. There were so many
- 20:23things that were happening that we could look at as negative. But these are
- 20:29just the facts of life. And what I don't want you to do is
- 20:34to allow the facts of life to help you determine or help you define your
- 20:41belief system because if you look at what you see more than what you believe,
- 20:48when you align with what you see and not what you believe, you're
- 20:53going to always be looking for evidence to prove that you are right. I
- 21:03want you to delve a little bit deeper into your belief systems. Align them
- 21:07with your goals and your vision, not with what you see, not with
- 21:11what people say, not with opinions. If you just put beliefs on what
- 21:19you see with the world around you. You're always going to be influenced by
- 21:25the world. Whatever they create as the new image of truth, of success,
- 21:32of where you need to be in life, that will be the only
- 21:37thing you focus on. One of the things that coach Dione Sanders does that
- 21:44I think is so remarkable is that his faith is on display as well.
- 21:51His relationship with God is something he is very open about, and you can
- 21:56tell that it is a relationship not a call upon and I think we all
- 22:04know that if you have a relationship with God where you can be in relation
- 22:08and just not call upon him when you are drowning in your worries and your
- 22:14fears, but when you're in relationship, it gives you comfort and hope because
- 22:19you know there is more, There is another way, There is another solution.
- 22:25It is not just the way you see it. The thing is,
- 22:29we live in an endless, boundless, limitless world. But instead of looking
- 22:37at the endless boundlessness of what we are and who we are and how we
- 22:41were created, we fall into the limitations because of situations and opinions and cultural
- 22:52norms and expectations. Believing is more and seen from week to week. People
- 23:03don't see the vision of the coach, but he does. People don't see
- 23:07how they can pull a win when they were I think one and eleven last
- 23:11year, How can they be a winning team? This is a brand new
- 23:15team in all aspects of teaming. He started with a whole new group.
- 23:22And you're telling me that this team, right that is brand new is going
- 23:30to tackle some of the biggest top five, top ten teams in the sport
- 23:37of college football. And he said, yeah, we will. I believe
- 23:47that statement. I believe has to be your enough. It is a reminder
- 23:55to me watching all of this on display, that the power of the mind,
- 24:00the strength of your faith can lead you to remarkable achievements and those have
- 24:08a more richer and meaningful direction for your life. I hope you enjoyed this
