Your behavior is a reflection of your beliefs from "summary" of Models by Mark Manson
The way you behave is a direct mirror of what you believe about yourself and the world. If you hold certain beliefs deep down, your actions will inevitably reflect those beliefs. This is because our behavior is essentially an outward expression of our innermost thoughts and convictions. For instance, if you believe that you are not worthy of love or respect, you will likely exhibit behaviors that reflect this belief. You may constantly seek validation from others, act needy or desperate in relationships, or even sabotage good opportunities out of fear of failure. These behaviors stem from the underlying belief that you are somehow inadequate or unworthy. On the other hand, if you believe that you are deserving of love, respect, and success, your actions will align with these beliefs. You will carry yourself with confidence, set healthy boundaries in relationships, and pursue your goals with determination. These behaviors arise from a deep-seated belief in your own worth and potential. It is important to recognize that our beliefs are not always conscious or rational. Many of them are formed in childhood or as a result of past experiences, and they can linger in our subconscious minds without us even realizing it. That is why it is crucial to examine and challenge our beliefs regularly, to ensure that they are serving us in a positive way.- We can begin to make intentional changes in both areas. This might involve challenging negative self-talk, seeking therapy or coaching, or engaging in practices that promote self-awareness and self-compassion. Ultimately, by aligning our beliefs with our desired outcomes, we can create a more fulfilling and authentic life for ourselves.
