Beliefs Are Not Equal

What are beliefs, values, ideas, and feelings? Do they create results in your life?  Or, are the beliefs, values, ideas, and feelings merely flashes like lightening on "your thoughts," more like wishing or day dreaming?
  
Or, is your brain over educated, convincing you that “thinking" automatically creates your life results? Are beliefs, values, ideas, and feelings a means to find the elusive key to some ancient knowledge that will lead to results in your life? We often see examples of these in simplified “positive thinking” and in movies like the "The Secret, and The Matrix."

In 2001, I saw the movie The Matrix after my thinking was scrambled after a surgeon ripped open my
chest and removed my heart.   The cardiologist told my wife that it was normal to think "psycho" after that type of surgery. So, I believed the thoughts and/or feelings were the real belief … the real life. It was six months before I returned to "normal" thoughts (without thinking the matrix).  And I believe that you will benefit from the insights I learned.

From psycho (fake results) to reality, because the idea and/or feeling was the last sensation that I remembered.  Either the idea or feeling created a sensation (result) created reality.  For four months, the value was linked to an idea and/or feeling.  After six months, I linked that a value begin with a belief. The belief was the reality.

Here was my thinking for six months; I had a number of beliefs.  Each belief produced one or more values, the value produced a idea and/or feeling, and the idea and/or feeling produced the result.

Some beliefs are slippery and difficult to understand.  Starting with the caboose, the results are what you want, or what you do not want, in your life.


After the caboose, comes the feeling and ideas.  Feeling and ideas produces the energy needed to get results.  If you are an intellectual (engineer) like me, you will put the idea before the feeling.  If you are emotional (an artist), not like me, you will place feeling before the ideas.
  
Values are part of the engine and are easier to see than beliefs.  Values are often like place and time markers that help us remember the things that worked, or did not work, in our past.  

For example, by the time I was ten years old, I had decided that my "birth" mother was crazy. I still remember my mother wearing a straight jacket, being put into an ambulance, to be taken to a hospital for mental illness.  I was not crying when they carted her away. That event created a place and time marker that reinforced my acceptance of the value that "emotions were crazy."

Therefore, I could not rely on my emotions, or any other person's emotions.  I had a train with one car missing … the feeling car.  I became an intellectual because of a "value" I held that emotions produced craziness. The value I remembered by the place and time marked event … was easier to pin point than trying to identify a deeply buried underlying belief. 


"Belief" (also in the engine) is not easy to pin point or understand.   A belief may create many values.   For example, perhaps my great grandfather had a belief that "he was a human".  When he saw a "White" person, he would say, "They are human";  When he saw a person with "black or yellow” skin, he would say, "They are human.” But, when he saw a person with "red" skin (American Indians, like Piute, Blackfoot, Apache, etc.), he would not say that a "red" man was a human.  He would say that a person with "red" skin was an animal. He believed that the "good red" skin person was a dead one. 

Similarly, my wife's cousin had three tours in Vietnam.  I asked him what he felt was needed to end the war.  He told me, "Remove the good Vietnamese  and put them on boats on the ocean; then nuke the bad Vietnamese… and then he would sink the boats holding the good Vietnamese." Harsh, yes. But a solid example of a firmly entrenched belief that influences value, idea and/or feeling development and therefore results in life.

As another example, a belief is, "All mothers protect their children."  All mothers, around the world, believe they must protect their children (unless they are crazy). That is a world belief.   All mothers protect their children is a belief … a world belief.  

You need to be aware that ALL BELIEFS (and values) ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL. Some beliefs you started yourself (i.e. when I believed that all emotions were crazy), other beliefs originated  from other people.

There are four types of beliefs you need to be aware of in order to successfully change your limiting beliefs:
• Level 1: Surface Beliefs: It feels like it’s going to start raining.  I think I’ll wear my red raincoat.   
• Level 2: Self-Image Beliefs: I am shy. I usually don’t make a good first impression.  I was a fat baby (thin, ugly, ignored, loved, smart, stupid) I cannot stop being who I am.  I love speaking to crowds.  I speak two languages, fluently, yet I can't get a date.
• Level 3: World Beliefs: Humans have one head, two arms, and two legs.  The stars are seen at night, not on a bright sunny day. To live, humans must have water, food, love, etc.  And all mothers love their children.
• Level 4: Universal Beliefs: Does God exists?  Do I have a soul?  Is there karma?  What is the meaning of life? 

Those four fundamental beliefs are the core that shapes our whole reality. Below are some frequently held beliefs. A belief can be categorized as a Surface Belief, a Self-Image Belief, a World Belief, or a Universal Belief.  Can you figure out which of the four fundamental beliefs are within each question, and why?
 
 Every human on Earth can NOT be rich?
     Note: Surface, Self-Image, World, or Universal, AND why you have this belief?

 I do not want any business?
     Note: Surface, Self-Image, World, or Universal, AND why you have this belief?

 Rich people (or people who speaks with an accent, have a strong body odor, owns guns, etc.) cannot be trusted.

 I would never wear a hot pink dress (shirt) to work.

If you were dying … today … would you accept as "enough?"
