There’s an infestation inside your head.
Nasty pests, too. Feeding off the host every chance they get. Left unchecked, they proliferate and infect every corner of the mind.
The diagnosis?
A rabid clan of ‘Vampire Beliefs.’
But these vampires don’t feed off your blood. No no…. these vampires feed off something much more valuable. Much more sacred and limitless.
These vampires feed off your potential.
You likely know them by their more common, less sinister name: Limiting Beliefs — but I know a vampire when I see one.
These potential-sucking pests will drain you as long as you let them.
Care to see what you’re up against?
Grab a UV flashlight and we’ll take a closer look.
In that corner, you’ll see the “It’s too late to pursue my dreams” Vampire Belief. He likes to lurk around the shadows looking for ways to make you believe you’ll never amount to anything more. Your inaction feeds him and makes him bigger. Gruesome looking pest, isn’t he?
Over there, you’ll see the “I’ll never be a wealthy person” Vampire Belief. Unimaginable fortunes have been forfeited to her. Her malevolent spells convince you that you’ll never make more money — and the less you earn, the more voracious she grows.
Lastly, if you shine your light down that ominous alley over there, you’ll see the silhouette of the most common and dangerous monster around: The “I’m not worthy of ______” Vampire Belief. This one thrives off filling in that blank for you — doubling in size each time he makes you believe you’re worthless or not good enough. Some say he’s the King ‘round these parts.
And that’s just nibbling the surface.
There are countless other Vampire Beliefs lurking in the shadows, each with their own unique way of draining your potential.
That’s the bad news.
The good news?
It’s much easier to slay these rotten pests than you think.
All you gotta do is show them a little proof.
And by proof, I mean evidence they’re wrong. Evidence that contradicts their very existence. The more you can find, the better. It’s like dousing them with Holy Water straight from the Pope’s toilet.
Let me show you how to do it.
Step 1) Hunt ’em down
ANY belief that holds you back from living the life you desire is a Vampire Belief. Too old? Not smart enough? Not worthy enough? All Vampire Beliefs.
Write them all down.
Step 2) Interrogate that Mutha
For each Vampire Belief, ask yourself a simple question:
“Do I really know this to be true?”
This question alone usually causes their skin to burn.
For example, let’s say you’ve decided to interrogate the “It’s too late to pursue my dreams” Vampire Belief — a dangerously common one, too.
So you ask the question: Is it really true?
Has anyone ever proven it’s never too late to pursue your dreams?
Your growing evidence here will be the wooden stake you drive through the Vampire’s heart.
Step 3) Slay the beast
All right, Buffy — you’re kickin’ some serious ass.
The only thing left now is to stake the Vampire, stuff its mouth with garlic, and repeat the words:
“I choose not to believe this anymore. It’s not true!”
Upon uttering these words, the Vampire Belief will ignite into a ball of flames and melt into a pile of potential-sucking mush right before your eyes.
A gruesome (but necessary) scene.
Now wipe your stake and repeat the process.
Each time you slay a Vampire Belief, you’ll grow stronger. In fact, they’ll grow so afraid of you coming for them, some will even step directly in the sunlight to avoid meeting you face to face.
They’ll know the Vampire Slayer is coming.
And you’ll have all the tools to eradicate them all.
Happy hunting.
