InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

March 3, 2023

The focus for today's inspiration is:

My beliefs are only thoughts that I choose to continue to think.

Beliefs are not irrevocable, sacrosanct sets of truths. They are only thoughts we continue to think.

We have a choice in our thoughts and beliefs. Loosen and unbind that knot of thoughts. Pull the knot apart and replace the strands with better thoughts—and you will have better beliefs.

We don’t have to believe any words that we or anyone else pronounces. We have the power of the Word. As we gently unglue our old labels and strip them away, our reframing words (and worlds) become easier to create. Then our words prompt us naturally to the leads, ideas, actions and life we desire.
