What evidence is there to support my limiting beliefs?

When it comes to limiting beliefs, evidence often plays a crucial role in their development and persistence. We tend to gather evidence that supports our pre-existing beliefs, consciously or subconsciously, leading to a self-reinforcing cycle. For example, if someone believes they are not good enough, they may focus on instances where they failed or received negative feedback, using these instances as confirmation of their belief. This selective perception and interpretation of events can strengthen and maintain limiting beliefs, making it challenging to break free from them. Recognizing this cognitive process is vital for challenging and ultimately changing these beliefs, as it helps to question the validity of the evidence and consider alternative perspectives.
