It is interesting to note that most of society is free. There
is a percentage of the populous that is incarcerated for
crimes against society. So too, are there people who
live in political cultures that do not value the freedom
of its' people.
Nevertheless, the majority of the people in the world live
in relative freedom. They can choose whom they marry,
what they do for a living, and where they live. Most
societies allow their people to move around freely
without restraint. As long as an individual is obeying
the laws, that person has wide latitude in conduct.
The freedoms offered by governments are physical
freedoms that all its' law abiding members enjoy.
However, many operate in a "prison like" atmosphere
regardless of what they are given. This prison does
not exist on the material plane. Rather, it is a creation
of the mind. It is manufactured from an individual's
belief system. These beliefs become people's jailers.
Most will tell you that they can think for themselves.
To suggest that they are incapable of creating their
own ideas is met with an overwhelming attitude to
the contrary. All their success, experiences, and
intelligence give a sense of independence. They
mistakenly believe that their belief systems is of their
own making. Unfortunately for them, it is not.
A fundamental concept to creating the life that you
desire is to create a belief system that works for you.
Contrary to what most think, our beliefs systems are
shaped by the influences around us. Teachers, parents,
friends, co-workers, and institutions all have input into
the beliefs that we live by. Have you ever noticed how
children's ideas often reflect those of their parents?
This is so common that political organizations poll school
children during Presidential elections because they
accurately reflect the sentiment of the adults.
The governments of the world are masters at shaping
the belief system of its' people. Through the use of
propaganda, public opinion is swayed based upon
the desires of those in power.
This is often done in the name of nationalism. A group
of people is established as a threat to the society.
Events are shown to validate this viewpoint while creating
the emotional dislike towards that group. Thus, the
government is free to act as it see fit with the full support
of its people. Unfortunately, most people do not have
firsthand experience to form a solid conclusion. Of course,
they will defend their belief even though that are not certain
where it came from.
It is common for people and organizations to manipulate
other's beliefs for the sake of control. The government is
one example. Some religions throughout history has
acted in a similar manner. They used threat of an angry
Deity and eternal damnation to control the masses. There
were numerous instances where the Church of England
was the most powerful organization in Europe. With a
following that is under control, it is much easier to maintain
influence. Naturally, there are many denominations where
this is not the case. So, too, are their many people who's
lives are enhanced by their religious affiliation.
Unfortunately, this is not true in all instances.
The key to a belief systems is creating one that works for
you. As an adult, you have the freedom to believe anything
that you desire. Spending time questioning where some
of your beliefs came from is healthy. It is also effective
to determine whether they still work for you. If they assist
you into being happy, joyous, and free, then they are
worthwhile. However, when they instill pain, perhaps it is
time to rethink them.
Ironically, the beliefs that seem to cause the most chaos
in people's lives come from those who love us the most.
Many individuals suffer from psychological disorders due
to the influences of their parents. Things such as low self
esteem, abandonment, and sexual issues all come from
our upbringing.
Typically, one who suffer from any of these, was made to
feel guilty and shameful. Their worth was shown to be
tied to their performance which never was good enough.
Mistakes were not forgiven but something to be used as
a weapon to make the other feel worse. All this was done
as a form of control.
Leap forward 20 years and you find that a person who
grew up in this atmosphere often still carries these beliefs.
Even though recent experiences will prove to the contrary,
the individual still hears the words of the parent. It affects
the relationships with friends, lovers, coworkers, and
oneself.
Without some help, the person is often incapable of
healthy interaction with others. There is a degree of
sickness in all that is done. Thus, the individual turns
to other things to fill that void that exists whether it is
drugs, alcohol, sex, or food.
However, if the belief system was viewed as insane,
the person might be apt to change it. Simply altering a
few of the basic beliefs one holds regarding oneself
miraculously changes life.
The more that we can accept that it is likely that what
we believe came from other, the better our chances are
of attaining freedom. There are many things that were
taught to us by others growing up which serve us well.
This is especially true if we were raised in a loving
home. However, society being as selfish as it is, there
is much that stands in our way of happiness. Analyzing
our belief system gets to the root of what motivates us.
A system that contains a great deal of fear will cause
one to often act out of that fear. The opposite is also true.
To create 'our' life, it begins with creating 'our' own
belief system.

The #1 reason why average people fail is this: They're too scared of rejection. They're afraid of failing. They're afraid of feeling sorry for themselves. They're afraid of getting disappointed. So they don't take the first step at all.
Do you worry about what other people think about you? You are not alone, it happens to all of us, the trap of other’s opinions.
What do you do when you hit a wall in your life? You know that feeling, like you’re stuck and there’s no place to go.
