Thanks for the comment to the post. The truly first step to reprogramming is to become aware of your own beliefs. Quick version of this would be to look at the results you want to change. Look at what actions you took to get those results. Feelings cause us to take actions. So what feelings were present, that ended up with you taking those particular actions? Your feelings are shaped by your thoughts. This is where vision boarding becomes so important. It helps to keep our thoughts focused on what we want. But there is still one more step to changing our beliefs. Becoming aware of the faulty belief that ultimately ended up with the action that you took. Acknowledge what the belief is, that is producing the negative outcome. Recognize what you must believe to be true in order to obtain the outcome you are seeking. Commit to substituting the new belief for the old belief. Find evidence why the new belief is true. Continue to recognize when the faulty belief pops in your head, and substitute your new (chosen) belief. Then proceed on toward other supporting techniques (vision boarding, gratitude exercises, behavior and habit modification, etc.) Soon you will be experiencing new levels of satisfaction and productivity. Of course I encourage you to enlist the help of others, mastermind groups, friends, family, coaches, etc. to keep you accountable to the process.
