Question: Do I have to give up or change my present beliefs?
Response: No.Our work is not about getting you to change the beliefs that you currently hold, but rather to get you to choose for yourself whether the beliefs that you hold still resonate with who you are or who you want to be. If they do, we encourage you to keep them.If they don't, we encourage you to find out why you are still keeping them.
Question: What if I don't agree with or resonate with all the ideas and concepts that you offer?
Response: No problem. Just choose what you resonate with and ignore the rest. The whole point of living an inspired life is to choose all that feels good and right to you and to leave the other stuff alone.Who knows, perhaps later on you may view some of your rejected ideas with a new perspective and suddenly find them appealing.Haven't you ever changed your mind about something you previously hated (eating spinach, which I hated as a child and now enjoy, comes to mind for me). Or perhaps you will never embrace some of these ideas.It doesn't matter to us.It only matters that you learn to choose for yourself.
