From Steve Bauer and by Steve. (May 11th, 2009)

I just read this cool little book titled “Re-Create Your Life”, by Morty Lefkoe.

In it, Lefkoe describes a cool little pattern for changing beliefs I found worthwhile to model and present to you. Notice how simple and easy this sounds. When you apply it, you’ll understand what makes it so effective.

Here we go:

  1. Identify a disempowering pattern (for example, I always snap at my kids)
  2. From the pattern, derive the belief that drives it (such as, “I have too much to do and too little time.”)
  3. Acknowledge the validity of your belief, and that you came up with it based on the perceptions you had at the time you created it. 
  4. Notice other possible meanings you could have derived from your perceptions at that time.
  5. Seek around you physical evidence of your belief. Can you find any? Of course not. It’s not tangible.
  6. Neutralize the belief. Is it the absolute truth? No way. It was simply an OPTION. Look at the other options that you identified in step 4.
  7. What happened to your driving belief? Still there? I didn’t think so…

Cool, huh?
