Sometimes so big that they are scary! Not only do I want to reach my goals but I want you to reach yours as well.   With that said, the key to every goal or dream becoming reality is TAKING ACTION (aka. the \u2018behaviors\u2019) toward it. There are certain actions & behaviors that must be taken in order to\u2026 Strengthen your faith Have a happy marriage Earn a certain level of income     However, every behavior we take OR don\u2019t take\u2026is attached to some underlying belief.    I\u2019ll prove it\u2026   My story: I once thought that my level of success was dependent on how hard I worked. My formula for success was: Hard work = Success. Therefore, I worked hard and became a doctor. However, my hard work was completely influenced by how I thought\u2026my beliefs. The reason I worked so hard was completely dependent on my underlying thoughts & beliefs. If I didn\u2019t believe I could become a doctor\u2026I would have never worked hard enough to excel in school If I didn\u2019t believe becoming a doctor was possible\u2026I would have never considered applying to medical school Therefore, your beliefs influence your behavior. Your attitude toward an idea determines your action!   Therefore, the hard part of achieving your goal is not the doing\u2026it\u2019s the believing!   Once I figured this out it changed the game for me\u2026because I then knew what to work on in order to get a desired result.   But the question is\u2026   What must you believe in order to achieve??   The 5 things to believe in in order to achieve:   Belief in the inevitability of the goal There is absolute certainty in its future reality Time is the only separator between you and your goal Circumstances don\u2019t matter Think about driving to a predetermined destination such as work. Detours, traffic, and construction don\u2019t stop you from reaching your destination. It is certain and inevitable that you\u2019ll get there. This is faith! Certainty and expectation of your goals no matter what the obstacles. Belief in the possibility of the goal It can actually happen\u2026FOR YOU! It\u2019s impossible until someone does it. The story of Roger Bannister (1954) No one prior to 1954 ran below a 4 minute mile because of the belief that one\u2019s heart would be damaged. He was the first to do it. After he did it, others found it possible FOR THEMSELVES and now a sub-4 minute mile is standard in high-level running You MUST believe that \u2018All things are possible with God\u2019 (Matthew 19:26) Belief in your ability You are capable. You are able! There are countless stories of people who have been able to achieve amazing things with less resources\u2026even significant handicaps What you MUST believe: You can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens you (Phil 4:13) Belief that your goal is worth it The end goal must be something that MATTERS to you! It must mean something to you For example, I believe I could be an amazing figure skater\u2026however, that doesn\u2019t matter to me at all. Therefore, I don\u2019t take action to become a figure skater. Belief that you are worthy of it This is a test of Self-value and how you view yourself \u201dWho am I?\u201d \u201cAm I worthy of what I\u2019m capable of?\u201d \u201cAm I worthy of an unbelievable life?\u201d We pursue what we feel worthy of You can believe in all the above 4, but if you don\u2019t believe you are worthy of different, you\u2019ll continue to get more of the same Someone can be royalty, but if they don\u2019t feel worthy of the title, then it\u2019s no different as not having the title at all We are children of God and citizens of the Kingdom of God\u2026which means we have all the rights and privileges that come with it. However, if we don\u2019t feel worthy of that inheritance\u2026then it\u2019s just as if we don\u2019t believe we are God\u2019s children or part of his kingdom!   Always remember this\u2026   You get what you believe!!   Whether we want to admit it or not, both you and I, are currently achieving to the level that we believe those 5 ideas above. Therefore, we must work on our belief to change the trajectory of our lives and impact on the world!   And THE BEST way to increase all 5 of those beliefs is to increase your faith and belief in God. By working on your belief in God alone, will fuels the beliefs in everything you do and dramatically positively transform your life to greatness!   If you need help, book a 1:1 Discovery Call with me at https:\/\/drbradmd.com Talk to you soon, Dr. Brad ","author_name":"ELITE PerforMENce with Dr. Brad","author_url":"https:\/\/drbradmd.com\/","html":"
