How do beliefs get formed?

Larry Janesky: Think Daily

What we believe is formed by what we are told and taught: our environment (physical place and people around us) and then our experiences (what happened to us).  Then we make decisions about those experiences (we make it mean something); “I’m not good at…”, “these people are bad (or good)”, “doing this, results in that”, etc.  

These become our beliefs.  And those beliefs drive our thoughts; and our thoughts create our new experiences and results.

In order to change our results we have to go back upstream and change some variables – what we learn, who we hang out with, our environment, or the decisions we made about what happened.  Then our beliefs will change and our thinking will change and our results will change.

Read that again.

What do you need to change to get the results you want?
