Changing Beliefs

Hard Rusty Ways

Old senses of direction have started to rust
As the new dawn approaches, and I cannot see
What is written. All meaning has faded away.
No longer do I feel that I need to obey
Any system of guidance that’s outside of me.
One could say that I may have an issue with trust.

I have good belief systems. I think I’m okay
For the most part, but there are a few that I need
To replace because they’re not helping me to be
My best person. My life should be an odyssey
Of fulfillment. It’s my intention to succeed
At creating a more awesome life day by day.

What’s the fastest way to ingrain a new belief
System into my being? It’s by practicing
The thoughts of that system and by noticing how
I feel when I am thinking them. I can allow
All the good that my thinking and feeling can bring
To the moment. From doubt I can find much relief.

I practice when I’m feeling my best – not when I
Am at my worst. I can’t get a hold of something
That feels bad and then try to force it to feel good.
That’s absurd. The illogic is not understood,
But when my practice leads to something exciting
I will milk it and just keep myself flying high.
