Now, move on to the next question. 4.  Who would you be without Now imagine, you are the same person, but you don’t believe that thought. How would you feel, what would be different? Take your time, go within. Feel into it. Let a new experience happen within you. For me, without that thought, I’d be confident, committed, and courageous and would write every day till it’s finished. 5. Now turn around the thought to its exact opposite. I can do it. Give at least three reasons why the new thought is equally true. It is possible, isn’t it? It could be true… let’s see if it is, name the reasons. In my case, I can finish my book because, 1.

I just schedule it in my calendar and start doing it every day. Now I feel differently. I know it’s not true. Sometimes beliefs have a deeper hold, they are based on a story, an event that is associated with a powerful memory. Yet, they can still be released with these four questions. I promise, it works. Let the emotions arise, write them down and then inquire. I hope this helps you to realize that your thoughts have power and they can be transformed with a little effort on your part.
