➦ My child should always be the best student in his/her class - What would
happen if he/she does not top the class?
➦ I am not good enough - According to whom?
➦ Our neighbor’s daughter is better than you - Better how?
➦ You must be 100% good at solving mathematics - What would happen
if she scores 90% instead of 100%?
3. Look for examples - Find enough examples to overcome beliefs, such as “where
or when has the limiting belief has not been true either for me/my child or
other people?”
4. Consider the consequences - One of ways is understanding the consequence
of holding on to the beliefs. Here are few consequence questions:
➦ What will the consequences be if I’m unable to make this change or help
my child eliminate this limiting belief?
➦ How will not changing the belief affect my life/my child’s life?
➦ What are the short-term and long-term consequences of not changing?
Has the belief helped me the past?
➦ What would happen to my child if I hold on to the belief?
5. Affirmations - An affirmation is a positive statement specifically targeted at
re-programming an existing limiting belief. Remember, that any thought we
repeat often enough will in time be passed down to our unconscious mind to
create a belief. If the new, positive statement is repeated enough times, it will
in time be strong enough to over-ride the existing negative one. Some of the
examples of affirmations are:
➦ Parents:
i. I believe that anything
is possible if you set my
mind to it.
ii. You can do this… I
believe in you…
iii. You are strong, confi-
dent and capable…
iv. You can do it.
