Although my mother has been gone for almost four years now, I can still hear her voice. Some of her favorite lines run through my head from time to time. What I realize is that not everything my mother told me is the truth.

Of course it was the truth to her and she passed on her wisdom with real concern and love for my well-being. However, beliefs such as: “you can´t have your cake and eat it too” and “stop crying or I´ll give you something to cry about” were two of her most frequently used expressions.

Today I definitely want to have my cake and eat it too. In other words, I want it all. And although I rarely cry, sadness, anger and grief are real emotions that need airplay also. What mom fervently believed doesn´t work in my life today.

I work with clients every week that have beliefs that were indoctrinated in them by their parents. When a parental belief shows up in my life, I simply ask the question: If I was shopping in the “What I Want to Believe” store, would this be a belief that I would choose? If it´s not, then I let it go. If it is one I would choose, then I make it mine and not my parents. That process of accepting a belief as your own, shifts it energetically to a much more positive place in your sub-conscious mind.

So what did your mother tell you? Did she tell you that you can´t have what you want? Did she tell you that you couldn´t earn more money than the Joneses? Did she say that you were dreaming too big?

Look at what goes through your head as the voice of your mother and decide today if you want to adopt those beliefs as your own or reject them. You can only create your amazing life if you have files going through your mind that are positive and empowering. Anything less than that…let go!
