The Energy of Belief

I’ve been thinking a lot about the nature of belief as a result of the class that we did for the Artist’s EDGE Membership called Build Your Belief Muscle. So forgive me, but I may get a little woo-woo in this post.

It seems to me that the law according to physics is that every action has an equal and opposite reaction, right? But when we think about the things we do, the actions we take, the interactions with others, why is it that the reaction doesn’t always seem to match the action? Why do we sometimes get a response that is out of proportion to the action we took, either in positive or negative ways?

Well, I have a theory. (You knew I would, didn’t you?) Our actions are taken not just on the physical plane but also on the energetic plane, as we are spiritual beings as well as physical beings. Unfortunately we are not always conscious of the tenor of the actions we take on the energetic plane. We just aren’t always aware of the energy we put out along with the actions we take.

So here’s my theory: When you take an action, your action is accompanied by energy that is completely colored by your beliefs. Since those beliefs are often unconscious, multi-layered and even contradictory to each other, so is the energy that you are creating.

So, if the results you are getting don’t match your intentions. Ask yourself – what am I believing about this?

If you feel like you are always pushing uphill against resistance when you try to accomplish anything. What you are pushing against just might be the energy that your beliefs are creating. So ask yourself – what am I believing about this?

Yes, I believe what you're saying about beliefs :-) I often feel like Sisyphus with everything. Have these bursts of confidence and energy, but when I have to continue doing things...or fulfill a promise to do things...I feel abandoned and unable to do it, and fill up time with procrastination. Getting diagnosed with ADD was a breakthrough for me, and I do benefit by any kind of coaching I can get, especially when someone "shadows" me, just stays with me while I accomplish things. But this is expensive and cumbersome to arrange. But the bottom line for me, personally, is that while I believe I can accomplish these tasks by myself, and have in the past, it feels hugely difficult.
