Here are four energy blocks (G-A-I-L) which are most likely standing between you and your engineering success.
How to overcome it:
Expose it and talk back to it – keep telling yourself you can do it.
A – Assumptions – The assumption that because something happened in the past that it will happen again.
How to overcome it:
Question the assumption and try to prove it wrong.
I – Interpretations – Your story and interpretation of a person or event; judgment you created to be true.
How to overcome it:
Don’t judge things and don’t judge people. Let them play out and experience them, you’ll be much better off if you do.
L – Limiting Beliefs – Limiting beliefs that are masked as truths, because you created them to be a truth for yourself.
How to overcome it:
Dump any limiting beliefs you have and say that you’re capable of doing something.
