Our Beliefs -Why they are most important in our lives...

Because Going through life with limiting beliefs is like being grounded for life... and their transformation is as easy as 1, 2, 3...
That's the reason I'm coming back to this most important part of our life
Those beliefs limit our actions and talent expressions, and they will continue to do so for the rest of our life... unless we find ways to transform them.
There is not really one recipe because we are all different, like Deepak Chopra said: "We are different because we walked through different gardens and knelt at different tombs." But if you really want to come to term with your limiting beliefs, a few principles are the same to follow:

1- You have to notice them and that may be one of the most difficult task, because we are so accustomed to run on automatic, just thinking we are being who we are, that it feels strange to imagine there could be another way...

So the first thing is to develop an inquiring mind relying on a more criticizing part of us, of just find a friend to make you notice when those limiting beliefs could be occurring.
Also when you think or hear yourself make an absolute statement like? "I couldn't do that!.. or have that... or be like that!.." and at the same time you have a sense that if you did, your life may be more enjoyable.

2- Then you ask: "could that be a limiting belief?"
Where does that come from? When did I decide to have this belief? When did I make that decision?
We may be surprised sometimes, how early in our life, how little we were when we made that life decision-- which was totally justified at the time-- but doesn't serve us anymore in our adult life and still dictates our actions...

3- After that, your new question is: "Do I want to keep it, transform it in accordance to my present life, or replace it?"
Once you have this, the rest become easy, smooth, clear, because you have done the most important for your transformation, as you may have heard, the diagnosis is 80% of the solution.
When we really pay attention, we all discover that we carry many beliefs that limit us.
The first step toward transformation and the best way to start would be to make a list of them because a few of those beliefs may fall into the same category and can be dwelt with as a group, one transformation pervading to others of the same kind... and it makes sense... Now, the more of those limiting beliefs you find, the longer the list, the happier you may become!
Good work..
Awareness leads you to know who you are and maybe to who you want to be and love that all the way!

Did you use your privilege today?

June 8, 2010, California - State elections...

As I'm a 'voter by mail'. I had received all voting forms and information well ahead.. but it seems that too often there had been something more important to do than study and decide between all my candidates, which ones I wanted to carry the colors... I finally did it yesterday!

So today, I was ready to bring my ballot to my polling place located in one of the YMCA buildings. I walked there and with a big smile on my face and my ballot in my hand, I entered the room . I was received by 3 very nice people, who showed me a box where to slid my envelope in. As my voting ballot disappeared, I noticed that I was the only voter there... I asked how many people came since opening, their response was: "a couple of them once in a while"!..

I thought that this June election was quite important; especially after the display of gridlocks and late budget voting which cost so much to California... I wanted to tell them, even with my only little voice! I was quite disappointed and really kind of hopeless to witness the general apathy of the people. The French have a say for that: "The bad governments are elected by the good citizens who don't vote..." I learned that as a child in school in Paris...
Are we teaching civic responsibilities in school?

Why I love my work

Fast change! What is my difference?
I won't call it fast therapy, because I do not do therapy... but I call it Fast Change!
To me, the difference is simple. When somebody has a problem and want to talk about it, they get therapy. But if and when that person is committed to change a habit as easily as it came, then I'm interested and will accept them as clients.
That's my difference.

The limiting beliefs that ground us for Life

They limit our actions, talent expressions and will continue to do so for the rest of our lives, unless...

1- we notice and identify them, asking: "could that be a limiting belief?"

2- have a way to find their origin, asking: "where does that come from? when did I decide to have that belief?"

3- now the question is: "do I want to keep it, transform it, or replace it?"


Whatever your decision, once you have done this, the rest becomes easy, smooth, clear, because you have the most important, a diagnosis, which people say is 80% of the solution.
