Icing on the Cake

When you have a deep, resonating belief in something—good or bad—you are putting your energy into creating exactly what you believe in. As an example, if you believe you are not going to be successful in life—I mean deep down you do not have faith in yourself—this is the cake that you are baking. You could add whatever type of tasty icing you want on that cake—such as a great, new, expensive outfit, but you are just covering up the cake. When you bite down into it, you will taste the truth of your beliefs.

When you are wanting to create change in your life, you have to start right in the heart of it all. You can lose weight, but if you don’t like what’s inside, you will still not be happy with yourself. You can have a new house, new job, new relationship, but if these are just the icings on your cake, it will not change your world the way you are hoping for it to change.

Start looking at the beliefs that resonate in you. Look to see what type of emotions you have about yourself. Are you loving yourself? Do you believe that you deserve abundance? Change the belief and you will also start to change your life.
