【推荐2】Just as the stock market rises and falls in response to what people are willing to put their money behind, we have inside ourselves an inner economy that rises and falls in response to our beliefs about what is possible. Sometimes the degree to which we are willing to ____our belief systems determines the success of our inner economy. For example, imagine that your family of origin had a belief that musical talent was not something they ____ As a member of that group, you would likely ____ that same belief about yourself. As a result, even if you had a great desire to create music, you might be ____ to really get behind yourself. Because you might fear that your ____ would not pay off. Even if you had the courage to follow your passion, your inner belief that you are not born____ would probably stop your trying. And that would be a major ____ to invest your energy in your dream.
On the other hand, belief isn’t anything ____ If you found a way to ____ that negative belief, a great flood of energy would pour forth, greatly increasing the possibility of your success. How much energy we are willing to invest in the various ideas and dreams is like the money people are, or are not, willing to invest in the various products available for trade on the stock market. And in both cases, ____ plays a key role in determining how willing we are to get behind something. One way to open up the possibility for greater success in our inner economies is to understand that belief is not the reliable ____ we sometimes think. There are other more reliable things of success that we can put our ____ in, such as passion, feeling, and sense. Some of the most successful investors in the stock market are the ones that go against the grain, trusting their sense over the ____ opinion held by ordinary people about what will work.
In the same way, we can learn to trust our heart’s desires and our sense to guide us,
____ any beliefs that stand in the way of our ability to fully invest in ourselves. As we take out energy from limiting ideas about what is possible, we ____ the resources that have the power to make our inner economy prosper.1.
