Objective of this Mental Strength Tip:
To convince you that you and only you are responsible for your personal success, fulfillment and happiness.
Let’s Get Started:
You can’t depend on another to create your personal success. You can’t depend on someone else to do for you want you need to do for you. This has been true through the centuries and even more so today. You have to be not only pro-active (positive and forthright) but pre-active (seeing what is coming and positioning yourself for it).
Questions to Uncover Beliefs about Mental Strength Thinking:
- What are your feelings around the concept of self-reliance?
- How has this idea served you in the past?
- Why do think people expect outside influences and circumstances to make them happy?
Unsupportive Beliefs about Self-Reliance
- When I get … (fill in the blank) I’ll feel successful.
- My family and friends give me feelings of fulfillment.
- I’m not happy unless I have the love and support of my family and friends.
Mental Strength Beliefs about Self-Reliance
- I feel successful even when I’m “failing.”
- Fulfillment is an emotion that can be created internally by knowing how your mind works.
- I feel happy when my habits, action and behaviors are in alignment with my value system.
Outrageous Questions:
- If you increased your self-reliance would you be more successful?
- How self-reliant is the average person?
- What would you have to let go of to become more self-reliant?
Reflective Questions:
- How self-reliant are your closest friends and family?
- Do you believe in the philosophy that says people are as happy as the make up their minds to be?
- What belief would you have to improve in order to become more self-reliant?
Mental Strength Coaching:
It’s so easy to accept others’ decisions and judgments or express opinions similar to the opinions of other people than to make or create your own. But this is not the exact behavior of a self-reliant person. A person is regarded as self-reliant if his actions and thoughts originate from within him and free from outside influences and not dictated by someone.
Final Thought
When you are self-reliant, you are confident enough to be able to do things by yourself in your own way, without help or guidance or recommendations offered by anyone. You are who you are, so you choose to be your true self rather than imitate someone else.
You make your own decisions or judgments; express your right or ability to do something, think your own thoughts, and voice your own opinions, not somebody else’s opinions.
