They Taint Your Experience of Living
When you are constricted by your limiting beliefs, you will do far fewer things over the course of your life. For example, if you believe that roller coasters are dangerous, you will probably never ride one, and you'd miss out on the thrill that so many others have experienced. No matter how great your life is at this current moment, you are holding onto beliefs that are stopping you from experiencing life to the fullest.
They Make You inefficient
The limiting beliefs that we are holding onto cause us to find an alternate path. If we believe that the best route won't work for us, we can spend a ton of time following a less direct way to work around our limiting belief. You may have always dreamed of being a teacher but believe that you can’t make a living as a teacher, so you do everything but teach. Save yourself time and deal with the beliefs that are holding you back rather than giving up on what you really want.
They Can Cause You to Unintentionally Harm Others
Your beliefs are more like a virus and less like math because they are more likely to be caught then they are to be taught. Even if you have the best of intentions, you can infect others with your limiting beliefs. The limiting beliefs that you pass onto others then affect them for the rest of their lives. You need to take some time and consider who you are infecting with your limiting beliefs and how those beliefs are affecting them and their own potential to live their best life.
Limiting beliefs can be incredibly destructive and will always keep you from achieving the life that you've always wanted. If you want to change your life you need to identify your limiting beliefs and start taking the necessary steps to overcome them.
