What Are the Core Beliefs Guiding Your Thoughts

What Are the Core Beliefs Guiding Your Thoughts

‍

Quote of the Day: Benjamin Franklin

“Beware of little expenses. A small leak will sink a great ship.”

George uses this financial wisdom as a metaphor for life: small, unchecked details in your mindset and habits can derail your big goals. And it’s true. It’s not just about money—it’s about energy leaks, focus leaks, and belief leaks.

Which brings us to today’s deeper message...

Revisiting the 12 Prosperity Pillars

Before diving into today’s topic, George recites the 12 Prosperity Pillars, a set of guiding principles gathered from decades of experience with top thought leaders:

1. I create my life.
2. I take personal responsibility.
3. I act in spite of my mood.
4. I surround myself with positive people.
5. I focus on solutions.
6. I create an attitude of abundance.
7. I choose to be happy.
8. I always think win-win.
9. I am committed to lifelong learning.
10. I create daily rituals.
11. I attract success.
12. I visualize and manifest my life.

George encourages listeners to use these as more than affirmations—use them as anchors, reminders to help shape your day, your mindset, and your energy.

The Missing Piece: Your Organizing Principles

We talk a lot about goals and routines, but what’s driving them?

That’s the question George explores next. He challenges us to look beyond to-do lists and vision boards and ask:

“What are the organizing principles of your life? What are the values, beliefs, and intentions behind your thoughts?”

Because if your thoughts truly create your life—and they do—then your thoughts need to come from a clear, intentional place, not random reactions to news, social media, or whatever’s trending.

The 3 Core Foundations to Write Down

If you’re serious about taking control of your life and business, George suggests carving out time to reflect on and write down three key principles:

1. Your Mission Statement

This isn’t just corporate fluff. Your personal mission statement defines what you want your life to be about. It answers questions like:

• What are you here to do?
• What experiences do you want?
• What kind of impact do you want to make?

You don’t need the perfect sentence. Just write what drives you, what excites you, and what you believe you’re meant to contribute.

“When you write it down, you start living it.”

2. Your Life Purpose

George reminds us that your life purpose isn’t something you need to find—it’s something you choose.

You can decide what your life is about. And when that decision is based on your unique talents and is applied in service to others, you unlock a path of purpose and fulfillment.

“Purpose becomes powerful when it’s tied to what you’re excellent at and passionate about.”

And just like your mission, your life purpose can evolve. What matters is that it’s consciously chosen, not left up to chance.

3. Your Core Beliefs

This one hits hard.

“If what you say you believe isn’t backed up by your behavior… you probably don’t really believe it.”

Your beliefs shape how you interpret everything in life. They are the lens through which you filter decisions, reactions, and ambitions.

So ask yourself:

• What do I believe about success?
• What do I believe about my worth?
• What do I believe about what’s possible?

And most importantly: Are my actions proving those beliefs true—or exposing them as wishful thinking?

Living with Intention Starts Here

George wraps up with a challenge: stop living on autopilot and start crafting your life by design.

He’s not asking you to write your 5-year plan or map out every detail. He’s simply asking you to get intentional about what’s guiding your thoughts and decisions.

Because when you know your mission, your purpose, and your beliefs, you begin to:

• Filter out distractions
• Align your habits
• Clarify your direction
• And create real momentum

Final Thought: It’s Time to Take the Wheel

“You’re the average of the people you hang out with—and today, you’ve been hanging out with me.”

Now the question is: What are you going to do with that influence?

Take 10 minutes today to journal:

• What’s my current mission?
• What do I want my purpose to be?
• What beliefs am I living by (and are they serving me)?

Then come back tomorrow. George will walk you through how to refine these even further—starting with your mission statement.

Until then, share this episode with someone who’s ready to live more intentionally.
