When Belief Stands In The Way Of Desire

Many times throughout life you are faced with decisions, decisions that may be tedious to make.  However, if ones beliefs matched their desires there would be no difficult decisions.

Achieving true alignment with oneself takes time and if one has not mastered the skill out comes those tedious decisions.  When these times appear, one could be in a state to make decisions about beliefs that they have made a reality or that they may have been brought up with.

A good example of this would be a money situation.  An individual wants freedom and desires to set their own schedule, so they start their own business.  The business is not as profitable as they need it to be, so a new belief begins to emerge.  The belief is that money is needed and is more important then their dream or desire.  The individual then gives up their business and goes back to a life where the original belief is let go. Their freedom is let go and they feel negative because they felt they have failed in achieving their true desire.

This can be a devastating experience and the feeling of failure will lurk in the individual’s current situation.  The original desire was for freedom and setting their own schedule.  Due to a new reality that individual made, they are left with a sense of hopelessness and victim of circumstance.

The key to preventing a new belief from standing in the way of true desires can be as simple as you want it to be, however an element of sacrifice may be needed.  You would not establish an original desire for example, freedom, if you did not believe you could achieve it in some way.  Therefore the element of sacrifice needs to be letting go of the immediate now and maintaining forward thinking.

Any decision or situation can be as easy or as hard as you make it, but once you make a decision the goal should be to not look back.  Stay true to the original belief and if new needs or beliefs surface, evaluate them.

For example, if the need for more money surfaces is there a way to achieve it without letting go of your original desire?  Or if you are forward thinking, can you see yourself in the future with more money from your current endeavor.  This type of thinking can realign your beliefs with your true desires.

If one maintains this forward thinking in their immediate now, what looks like sacrifice can be reframed into a step in achieving ones true desire.
