Resistance is an inner activity that takes place inside of you. Whenever resistance is in motion you won’t even realize it; because it becomes part of your mindset rooted deep down in your subconscious mind.
Many people have suffered, or shall I say are suffering because of Resistance and the reason why it gets to work is because of a word called unfamiliarity. Something that is Unfamiliar is something that is unusual, strange or not known. So that is how resistance kicks in. It goes to work because there is something you are trying to embrace or adopt in your life or mind and due to the unfamiliarity of that you are thinking of; Resistance begins fighting the battle for you to try by all means to stop the new thought to be part of you.
If you are resisting success it’s probably not obvious to you because resistance is an inner process. It’s part of a mindset that is rooted in the subconscious. So when you find yourself being reluctant to start that business, write that book, or refusing to believe you can succeed in this life, then you should know resistance is at work. In most cases it has something to do with your background or upbringing. As for me, I resisted success because I didn’t see anyone around me achieving any significant measure of success. All I was told was, “life is too hard” time and again. I was familiar to words such as; “We can’t afford this, we can’t afford that, there is no money for that, etc”So when I grew up; anytime there was an opportunity for me to earn more and succeed I wasn’t able to seize those opportunities. It looked like there was some evil person working out some magic for me to never attain success even though it was at my finger tips. I didn’t know soon enough that there was something within me called Resistance that found success as UNFAMILIAR.
Procrastination, indecisiveness, overworking, overeating, multi-tasking, being late, missing appointments, wanting to sleep, are all signs of resistance. Resistance makes you feel uncomfortable, it drains the power of creativeness, it numbs you and you end up feeling like you can’t do it. It is fighting inside of you to stop you doing anything it thinks is stupid.
So when you see yourself failing to step into that next level of business success, earning that huge income, getting involved in that glorious relationship or any other aspect of your life, then you know, resistance is working. Even though this battle is taking place within you, it will still show up in the the outer world and in the quality of your life. This inner conflict is a battle between your true desires and false beliefs.
Desire or longing for betterment in life is part of human nature. Every person on planet earth yearns for good things and greatness. Desire lead us to our purpose and the expression of our innate gifts and is filled with the energy of success. But you may desire and as long as resistance is tolerated, your desires will not come to fulfillment. Resistance is the wall between desire and fulfillment. If you desire to buy a nice car let’s say a Rolls Royce and your being is resisting that car, you will fail to have enough resources whether money, favor or people to help you buy that car. You end up with a second hand car or a brand new small car, not a Rolls Royce though! Why? Because resistance stopped your desire to be fulfilled. Those false beliefs were working within you, telling you that a person of your calibre can never own a Rolls Royce.
Resistance is the voice of lack and limitation that intends to hold you back from fulfilling your true desires. You will identify resistance If you listen inside of you, you will hear voices such as “I am not worthy of success, I am not good enough, I can never have this, I can never find someone nice to marry me, etc, etc” Then you know it is there and those voices needs to be stopped.
Well I have got good news; you can move beyond resistance and shift into a new mindset and a new way of being. It is 100% possible. First of all, find out what it is you are resisting – that desire your heart is rejecting. What is the voice inside of you saying? Find out, if it is saying, “you won’t be able to achieve this….., afford that,….”etc then you need to take note of that. I want you to create an awareness of resistance since it is the key to your breakthrough. Get into the habit of pinpointing the signs and symptoms of resistance and say to yourself, “Here we go again, resistance trying to hold me back to succeed” This will expose it, defuses its power and loosens its grip on you.
Then begin reinforcing new thoughts in your life. Thoughts that you can succeed, that you are worthy enough to have anything that is right in the world. Begin to tell yourself that you can do it. Become your own cheerleader. Cheer yourself up until the new thought is ordained and accepted in your life.
Never allow resistance to run your chores, it will keep you down, hold you back and you will not achieve your true purpose. Love yourself, don’t wait for people to love you. Don’t wait for people to tell you you can do this and that. Don’t wait for people to tell you your potential. Tell yourself first, as you do, people will begin to see where you are heading and they will confirm your new beliefs.
I know once you get rid of resistance, nothing will stop you to live your life to the full.
To Your Full Potential
