If You Choose to Believe in Yourself Then You Will Become That Self – A “Choose to Believe” Story

If You Choose to Believe in Yourself Then You Will Become That Self – A “Choose to Believe” Story
Posted by the Generator; Original article By Miles Milken

A number of years ago I saw a truly inspiring movie, “The Rookie,” based on a true story about Jimmy Morris, played by Dennis Quaid. If you haven’t seen it here’s the gist of why it’s so relevant to how choosing to believe in yourself will help you become that self.

All his life Morris wanted to play ball with a major league team. Finally, at an age when most people retire, he got his chance. Here’s the part that’s so inspiring. He didn’t believe he had it in him. The tryout coaches said he was throwing a 98-miles per hour fast ball.

He said, “No way, that can’t be!”

(Author’s note: I can’t tell you how many times I used the same phrase)

One of the coaches said they thought the same thing too. So they brought out three speed meters and all three read 98-miles per hour. Morris, still didn’t believe it. It took a bit of a lengthy conversation between the coach and Morris until finally it dawned on him, he really did do it. What is also important here is that he chose to believe he really did it.

That was the turning point for Morris.

He moved forward feeling supremely confident with himself because now he believed that he could become a major league pitcher. He started out with the minors and eventually went on to the majors. Because he chose to believe in himself, he became that self he believed in. Great story.

Choose to believe in yourself. It’s just that simple. There doesn’t need to be any discussion, debate, or doubt. Just believe in yourself, pure and simple.

Believe in what you can do…you can do.

Now here’s the amazing thing that you can start believing in right now. All this potential is already inside of you.

It’s hidden if you complain, or feed your brain with thoughts like, “No way! I can’t do that.”

First, you can start believing you have a “choice” of the kind of thoughts you want to think. Even when emotions are high, you always have a choice. Yes, I will admit, with high emotions that choice can be difficult, but you still have a choice.

I choose to believe in myself, and because of that, I will become what I’ve chosen to believe and can do.

What about you?

Dedicated to your uphill thoughts rising you to the top.
