Our beliefs play a large part of how we are in the world, the guide our attention, let us know what is possible for us and give us or deny us permission to act. Most of us have unhelpful beliefs that limit us and what we can achieve. Unfortunately allthough we might suspect there are limiting beliefs at work, because they are so tightly woven into our experience they can be hard to identify. If you can't find them then you can't change them. This webinar will give you a simple, step by step, process to help you identify some of the limiting beliefs that may be holding you back. All you will need is some paper and a pen. This is another webinar in the very modest promise series: Listening to this webinar will probably not make you any richer, thinner or more popular, but I think it will give you some useful information and techniques that, if you choose to apply, will help you along the path of life.
