Boosting Resilience: Tackling – then Ditching – Self-Limiting Beliefs
Boosting resilience involves challenging – and then ditching – your self-limiting beliefs.
In episode 160 of the Vet Staff podcast, host Julie South unpacks the concept of self-limiting beliefs and their impact on personal growth and resilience.
Discover how to shed light on these hidden barriers and harness the power of Functional Imagery Training (FIT) to increase your motivation, boost your resilience and live your best life.
Understanding Self-Limiting Beliefs
“Limiting beliefs are stories we tell ourselves that hold us back,” explains Julie South.
These fabricated tales, often based on past experiences, restrict us. They hinder our personal and professional growth.
Limitations like this, then translate into low resiliency levels that negatively affect our ability to bounce forward from setbacks.
Boosting Resilience with FIT – Functional Imagery Training
Julie sheds light on Functional Imagery Training (FIT), a scientifically backed approach that uses mental imagery to motivate change.
“FIT can help challenge our limiting beliefs, fostering belief in our ability to achieve goals,” she reveals.
Incorporating FIT into your routine provides the powerful push enabling motivational momentum even in the most trying times.
The Power of Personal Values
Julie further emphasises the importance of aligning our actions with our personal values.
“Knowing your core values and beliefs helps determine the direction you go in.”
This knowledge acts as a compass, guiding us and reducing stress, thus bolstering resilience and personal growth.
Debunking Limiting Beliefs
The challenge lies in identifying and then flushing your self limiting beliefs down the drain.
Julie encourages listeners, “When a limiting belief arises, counter it with an empowering statement.”
By recognising and actively challenging these beliefs, we can uncover new avenues for growth and resilience.
