Beliefs are personal and everybody is free to choose just what they want to believe, yet so
many people carry around with them beliefs which hold no useful benefit whatsoever and
only serve to limit what the person can do and where they can go in life. They don’t just
hold these beliefs for a few days, or weeks, not even a few months or years, for some people they hold limiting beliefs for their entire lives.
There are people who only go so far in life, they reach a plateau and go no further, they
could go further and achieve more but they don’t, and one of the main reasons they don’t
go any further is because of some self imposed limitation they bestowed upon themselves
by way of a negative belief, that somehow got wired into their nervous system by something that was said, either by themselves or somebody else , be it recently or when
they were younger.
There can be times when all it takes is one simple statement about our ability to carry out
a task, or a response to an idea we have in our minds, or even a remark made by somebody else for us to form an opinion about what it is we can or cannot do. This then becomes a belief (a limiting one), we then validate it, it then becomes a command to the nervous system and boom, months later we are still holding it in our minds, and we may even hold it for the rest of our lives.
Limiting beliefs are not useful, there only purpose in life is to shrink our potential and
hold us back by preventing us from becoming everything that we can become. If on the
other hand we had our own personal beliefs that supported us, and that we knew would
benefit our lives in ways that no other belief possibly could, the outcome and possible
benefits would be much more useful (your own set of empowering personal beliefs that bought you what you most wanted in life). No limiting beliefs, just positive ones, all personal to you and your life, your own empowering code to follow.

Amen. Unfortunately the same about limiting beliefs can be said about many religions in this world. The world would be better off without most of those.
