right along the title of this episode is oh let's
see Okay, why having a belief system is crucial for

(03:18):
success and personal growth. I'm going to say that again
why having a belief system is crucial for success and
personal growth. A belief system shapes the way we think, act,

(03:38):
and it also helps us to navigate do life. Yes,
it does. It's important to have a belief system a
way to navigate through life. A belief system is a
set of ideas, values, and convictions that shape how we

(03:59):
see the world. It shapes how you see yourself and others.
It shapes how you interpret situations, and it helps you
to determine if things are possible, to achieve, how to
respond to challenges, and also, like I said, to make decisions.

(04:21):
It also is a collection of beliefs that guide your
thoughts and behaviors and life choices. So a belief system
is something that we all need every single day. Me personally,
I have faith in God. That's my belief system. I

(04:42):
have hope and I have faith in God. And so
having a belief system positions you not to depend on yourself. Now,
there are things that we can do as individuals according

(05:03):
to our human abilities, but there are some things that
we can't do right. There are some things that are
out of our control. And I personally believe that there
are things only God can do. Right, there are things
that we can do and there are things that only

(05:23):
God can do. So that is why I believe it
is important to have a belief system because we all
have gone through challenging situations and you never know when
life will suddenly change, so we all need a belief system. Personally,

(05:50):
my belief system has enabled me to be a mother.
My belief system has enabled me to believe in myself.
My belief system has also allowed me to have faith
when I wanted to give up, times I was in

(06:12):
times I was discouraged, or in times when I didn't
believe I could do something. My belief system, my faith
in God, and my belief system helped me to be brasilient. Yes,
I was raised to have a belief system. My mother

(06:34):
raised me to have a belief system. And with that
belief system, I was taught not to look at limitations,
but to look at what is possible, not to go
by how something looked, but go by the results of

(06:55):
what you believe. That's what I was taught. And so
when you have a belief system, it helps you to
see what you don't see. Let me explain that to you.
It helps you to manifest and experience the things that

(07:15):
you imagine. Now, if you look at your natural situation,
you see around you the room that you're in right now.
But if you imagine yourself being somewhere you really want
to be and give faith to what you believe is possible,
you can manifest that in your life. And it starts

(07:39):
with having a belief system. Your belief system positions you
to believe for what is impossible, to make something possible
that could be impossible. So that is why it is
important to have a belief system. Because a belief system

(08:04):
positions you to also activate your faith. It causes you
to activate hope because when you look at this world
and you look at what's going on around us, we
don't always see hope sometimes, but because of having a

(08:24):
belief system, you can activate that hope from within. And
that is why it is important to have a belief system.
I don't know what I would do if I didn't
have a belief system. I don't know what I would

(08:45):
do if I didn't have faith in God. My belief
system helps me to get through anything, to get through
everything that I have gone through. My belief system because
I know that there are certain things money can buy,

(09:07):
certain things money can't buy. I fully understand that some people,
sadly are deceived to think that money can buy everything.
Money gives you access, but money can't buy you peace.
Money can't buy you authentic, genuine, unconditional love. Money can't
buy that. But a belief system. When you have hope

(09:29):
and when you have faith in God, and when you
have a belief system, you can position yourself to believe
and receive the impossible. That is why it is important
to have a belief system. Having a belief system can

(09:52):
keep you motivated as well, because it's foundational for having
something to look forward to. Because when you have a
belief system, you have something to look forward to. Think
about that for a second. When you have a belief system,

(10:15):
it gives you something to look forward to because when
you are expecting something, and if you are looking forward
to something, your belief system according to what you believe
will happen, will keep you excited. It will keep you
motivated to anticipate something happening all the time. A belief

(10:40):
system is also the foundation for a meaningful life. Yes,
it is the foundation for a meaningful life because when
you understand the power of hope, and when you understand
the power of faith, you will activate those things so

(11:05):
that what you do in your life is intentional and meaningful.
You won't waste your time and with doing things that
have no purpose. You will be more focused on doing
things that bring change, doing things that meet needs for others.

(11:35):
So that is why it is important to have a
belief system. When you have a belief system, you can
achieve more. You can reach your potential, You can reach
your highest potential when you have a belief system. You
can continually evolve into something greater when you have a

(11:59):
belief system. Because a belief system, again is foundational for
having a meaningful life. I'm going to give you ten
more reasons why you should have a belief system. One, Again,

(12:22):
as I mentioned earlier, a belief system will provide direction.
It will help you to know what is truly important.
You won't cling to what is vain because you will
understand and be more focused on what is important because

(12:45):
your belief system will align with what is important. Two.
A belief system, as I stated earlier, it will help
you to make choices easier and more consistent because you're
decision making will also align with your belief system because

(13:10):
when you make a decision, it will help you to
see the moral value and what you decide to do. Absolutely.
Number three, having a belief system will help you to
build more confidence over time. Knowing your values and strengths,

(13:34):
you will be more self assured because of your faith
and because of what you believe is possible to happen. Absolutely,
Having a belief system, again, it's a position to believe
for what is possible according to what people may perceive

(13:58):
as impossible. You will know that it is possible and
in that you will build confidence. You will be able
to make good decisions, and you will have direction, good direction.
The next one, a belief system will also encourage you

(14:20):
to have resilience. A belief system will help you to
stay strong during challenges because of your faith, because of
the hope that you stand in and because of what
you believe about God and because of what you believe
about yourself. You will stand strong during challenges because a

(14:42):
belief system will encourage resilience. And as I stated earlier,
a belief system it will shape your mindset. It will
influence your thoughts, your attitudes, and your action because of
what you believe is possible to change, you will speak differently,

(15:07):
you will think differently, And when you're having conversations, having conversations,
if something doesn't align with what your belief system is,
you will cut it off. That's right. When you're having
conversations in conversations, if something does not align with your

(15:28):
belief system, you will cut it off. For an example,
if I'm talking to someone and I'm talking about what
is possible, and the individual says something like, oh, I
don't know what I'm going to do, or that's difficult,
and they keep saying it's difficult, it's difficult, it's difficult.
The more you say something is difficult, that means it's

(15:48):
going to be difficult because you're thinking it and you
are saying it. So you should only speak what you believe,
only think what you believe. So the more person says
something is going to be difficult, then it's going to
be difficult. I always tell my students, I'm an English teacher.
I always tell my students perceive and believe and project

(16:11):
that what you are trying to do is possible, and
believe that you are already doing it. Just believe it's
already done. Your goal is already complete. Just believe that,
and as you believe it, you will see it and
you will speak it. And that's what makes it possible.

(16:32):
Because a projection is something that you foresee happening before
it actually happens. And that's faith because faith, faith is
the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things
not seen. So you got to believe it before you
can see it. And having a belief system empowers you

(16:57):
to see it, experience it before you actually see it,
see it in your imagination before it's manifested. That's projection.
The next one. Having a belief system will also promote accountability.

(17:19):
You will hold yourself to your own standards with a
belief system because again, as I stated, having a belief
system is foundational for a meaningful life. You want your
life to be meaningful. Why because you want a legacy,

(17:40):
don't you don't You want to be able to pass
something on to your children and your family members that
will be beneficial. That's right. So your standards and the
accountability that you have and your core values, and like
I said, how you believe your belief system, excuse me,

(18:03):
that will determine the goodness and the power of your legacy. Absolutely, absolutely.
The next one, number seven, Having a belief system also
will enhance your relationships. How because share values improves connection

(18:25):
and understanding. A belief system provides fortitude in relationships. It
provides for to two because you position yourself with the
person that you're in a relationship with doesn't have to
be romantic, but it could be anybody. When you operate

(18:48):
with a set of values and standards that bring peace
to the relationship, that's right. That belief system will help
you to be accountable and it will help you to
enhance your relationship. Yes, and the next one. I mentioned
this earlier again, but I'm just repeating it. Having a

(19:13):
belief system also drives motivation because it causes you to
believe and take action according to your purpose. Your gifts,
your talents, your abilities. That's right. All of those things
have a purpose, and when you have a belief system,

(19:35):
it drives you to be motivated, motivated to function in
your gifts, talents, and abilities because of your belief system.
Number nine. A belief system supports personal growth and it
encourages continual learning and self improvement. That's right. We all

(20:03):
need to do something more and something better every single
day because when we decide to do something more and
something better every single day, that means we are aligning
ourselves with what we believe that is possible. We are
aligning ourselves with our belief system. And lastly, a belief

(20:28):
system also helps you to totally walk in your potential
with your life given purpose because when you understand your
purpose and you understand the journey of your purpose, you

(20:50):
will do the work to be a better you every
single day. A belief system is important for all of us.
It's not just about being religious or being spiritual, but
it's about your journey in life to be a better you.

(21:14):
It's about your journey in life to evolve into something
greater and better every single day. I know there are
different beliefs and different religions around the world, but I
encourage you to simply believe in God. I can't tell

(21:35):
you what to do. I will never tell you what's
right or wrong in terms of what you should believe
in what you shouldn't believe, because you have your own convictions.
And just know that it is important to have a
belief system because this world does not give us hope.

(21:56):
God gives hope, and we all need to have faith
to believe that God is real. So on that note,
I am going to conclude this episode of SB Favorite
Thinking Podcast. I thank you so much for listening and

because there's a lot going on in the world and
we need to share more love now more than any
at any time, because there is so much going on

(22:40):
and I don't want to talk about the news, but
the only thing I can say is that we need
to pray, and we need to believe in God. We
need to believe that there is something better and greater
than all of the negative things that happen in the world.

(23:00):
We need to keep the faith and we need to
keep the hope that gives us the courage to keep
going every day. So thank you so much for listening.
