Power of BELIEF

I recently had the opportunity to listen to Suze Orman speak at a work conference in California last week. I don't know that I went in with a very high opinion of her, but sure came home with one.
There were 2 things that she said that really stood out in my mind.
1: "The elephant keeps walking when the dogs keep barking." meaning that just because others are telling you no or wanting you to stop don't think that you can accomplish something you set out to do, if you truly believe in yourself and your mission you will keep going until you reach where it is you are headed. Just like the elephant who keeps walking when the dogs are barking and nipping at his feet, eventually the dogs stop and the elephant keeps going. BELIEVE that you can do it.
How many of us quit at the first sign of doubt from those around us? Why? Do we really think we are not worthy of our dreams or goals. We need to stop this bad self talk for sure, it really isn't going to get us anywhere and will probably force us to act in a way that will make the bad stuff come true.
2: When you feel powerful you attract people, people control money, therefore when you feel powerful you attract money. So in other words, when you BELIEVE in yourself and your abilities, others will follow suit, when you put out there that you are never meant to be, have or do anything, that will also come true, when you BELIEVE in yourself, your actions will accommodate, when you don't BELIEVE in yourself or you think you are nothing, you will act in this way.
Therefore I say BELIEVE that you are destined to do great things with yourself, God made you unique and you have something to offer. God made you to serve others and others to serve you, which in turn serves HIM. You will attract those who need your service through your qualities and talents, and attract those who can serve you with their unique qualities and talents.
We should all share in the attraction of what we can give and what we can benefit from. We are not strong enough to be alone in this world, but we do have to BELIEVE that we as individuals have something wonderful to contribute. We are our own worst critic but we can be our best BELIEVER too.
