Are You Really in Control?

You wake up, grab your phone, and scroll. Another day begins, and without even thinking, you move through the motions, checking messages, getting ready, heading to work, making decisions, responding to situations, feeling emotions. It all seems natural, like you are the one in control. But what if you are not?
What if the way you feel about money, success, love, or even yourself was decided for you before you were old enough to question it? What if every time you doubt yourself, hesitate before seizing an opportunity, or dismiss a compliment, it is not actually you making that choice?
What if your subconscious beliefs have been calling the shots your entire life, and you have just been following the script without realizing it?

The Script You Did Not Write Consciously

Think about it. You were not born doubting yourself. As a child, you did not hesitate to ask for what you wanted. You were not afraid of being judged. You did not think: Am I good enough? before doing something you enjoyed. That came later, because of remarks and experiences that left a mark. From things you heard over and over again until they became your internal truth.

  • The time you were told: "Money doesn’t come easy".
  • The moment someone made you feel like: You take up too much space.
  • The painful lesson that: Love always comes with conditions.

One by one, beliefs formed in childhood. And without realizing it, those beliefs became your reality. Now, they shape everything: how you show up, what you expect from life, and what you subconsciously allow yourself to have. The question is, do those beliefs actually serve you? Or are they quietly keeping you from the life you could be living?


How to Spot the Invisible Beliefs Running Your Life


1. Your Emotional Triggers Are a Map

Have you ever had someone compliment you, and instead of feeling good, you immediately dismissed it? "Oh, this old thing? It’s nothing." Or maybe someone else got an opportunity you wanted, and instead of feeling happy for them, you felt resentment rise up in your chest. These moments are not random. They are proof of a belief at work.

Maybe deep down, you hold the belief: I am not worthy of success.
Maybe your mind whispers: If success comes easily, it is not real.
Maybe you believe: I have to prove myself before I can receive good things.

Pay attention to those emotional reactions, they are your subconscious speaking.


2. Your Patterns Reveal the Truth


If you keep finding yourself in the same situations, that is not bad luck. That is your belief system playing up.

  • If you always attract emotionally unavailable people, there is a belief shaping your relationships.
  • If you struggle with money no matter how much you earn, there is a belief about wealth keeping you stuck.
  • If you never feel “good enough” no matter what you accomplish, your subconscious is running a belief that success is not for you.


Patterns do not lie. They expose the beliefs operating in the background. The question is, do you like the pattern?


How to Un-Believe the Thoughts Holding You Back


Most people try to “think positive” when they notice a belief they do not like. But forcing yourself to believe something new does not work. You cannot fight the belief. You un-believe it.


Step 1: Find the Limiting Belief


Ask yourself: What belief is shaping my reality right now?
Most people carry subconscious fears like:
If I fully express myself, I will be judged.
If I trust people, I will get hurt.
If I take risks, I will fail.


Step 2: Rewrite It into an Empowering Belief


Once you see the belief for what it is, rewrite the script.
If your belief is "I always struggle to be heard," shift it to: "My voice is valuable, and people respect what I have to say."

If your belief is "Love always ends in pain," shift it to:
"I create and attract relationships that feel safe and fulfilling."

 

Step 3: Self-Muscle Test the New Belief


Some beliefs sound good on the surface but do not actually feel true on a deeper level.
Self-muscle testing allows you to check whether your subconscious is in agreement with the new belief or still holding onto resistance.
If the new belief does not feel strong, it means your subconscious has not fully accepted it yet.


Step 4: Transform the Belief at the Subconscious Level


This is where the real shift happens. Once you identify resistance, you can use the  Believe-Able transformation process to permanently shift the belief. This is not just about thinking differently, it is about reprogramming the subconscious so the new belief becomes automatic. When that happens, life begins to change effortlessly, because you are no longer working against your own mind.


Final Thought: You Are Not Your Beliefs—You Are the One Who Gets to Choose Them


Most people go through life believing their thoughts are just “who they are.” But now, you know better.

You are not your past.
You are not your patterns.
You are not your inherited limitations.

The script running your life can be rewritten. And now, you know what you need to learn to master this skill yourself.

Why ‘Trust the Universe’ is the Worst Advice You have Ever Heard

How many times have you heard someone say: “Just trust the universe”, as if those four words were the answer to everything? You are stressed about money? Trust the universe. Your relationship is falling apart? Trust the universe. No idea what you are doing with your life? Trust. The. Universe. It sounds nice, but here is the problem: it is the worst advice ever.
