Do we form beliefs based on our experience, or do we create experiences based on our beliefs?

Experiences and expectations do, of course, influence one another, but while most of us may credit the logical and psychological idea that our beliefs are primarily shaped by our experience. In psychology, this commonly recognized phenomenon is called the self-fulfilling prophecy.Everything is a form of energy; our mind shapes that energy into manifest form and colors the filters through which we see the world. Almost since infancy, we have stored programmed sensitivities and expectations into our subconscious.

Those of us who expect that “people can’t be trusted,” find evidence that supports this belief. Even if we outwardly say that you can trust someone, the subconscious provides the key to creating experience. The key to changing these inevitable outcomes is to create new expectations, based on clear intention, not blind faith. This helps to take us beyond our previously assumed limits, themselves generated by earlier beliefs, and expectations that may have been forward within the first months of life. What we expect tends to appear in our life, because we set in motion subtle psychophysical forces; like attracts like.

We achieve only to our expected or assumed limits.Energy follow thought; we move toward but not beyond what we can imagine. What we assume, expect, or believe. Colors and creates our experience; by changing our expectations, we change our experience of every aspect of life. What we believe or expect, over time, at the deepest or subconscious levels, tend to shape our external reality. We feel what we focus on. Live with great expectations, and great things will happen.
