What exactly is a limiting belief and how does it affect our growth?

A limiting belief is a state of mind or a perception you have about yourself that restricts or stops you in some way from where you want to go or how you want to feel. Limiting beliefs can range from a simple thought that stops us from making specific steps in our life, to ideas and perspectives that influence our behavior and how we act around others.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks says a limiting belief she wants to change is the idea that no one could fully accept her due to her mental health diagnoses, triggers, and highly sensitive needs. She wants to flip that mindset and open herself up to believing she is worthy of all the love and acceptance in the world because she definitely deserves it!

What’s a limiting belief you want to change?

Letting go is difficult because the mind confuses familiarity with safety. Even when something hurts, it can feel easier to hold on than to face the unknown. But growth requires space. When you stop gripping what no longer serves you, you give your nervous system room to settle and your life room to shift. What is one thing you feel ready to release so something better can enter?

It’s easy to take things personally when someone cuts you off, says something sharp, or seems careless. Your mind instantly turns it into an attack and labels them as rude or bad. But think about how many times you have been lost in your own thoughts, stressed, overwhelmed, or dealing with something heavy, and accidentally bumped into someone or said something without thinking. Most people are fighting their own mental battles that you will never see. Practicing understanding instead of reacting does not excuse bad behavior, but it frees you from carrying unnecessary anger. The more you let people be human, the more peace you create for yourself. What helps you pause before reacting when someone triggers you?

As we march forward in our growth journeys, let's also honor and appreciate those who have supported us along the way.

From a community like The Mighty to a family member or therapist, who would you say has supported you the most? What does that support look like?

Meditation is not about having a quiet mind, it is about learning not to be pushed around by every thought that appears. When you stop fighting your thoughts and start observing them, they lose their power over your emotions and behavior. This shift can change how you experience stress, anxiety, and sadness in everyday life. Have you ever noticed how different a thought feels once you stop believing it automatically?

Letting go of something you’re holding onto—whether literally or figuratively—can be challenging and complex, no matter what it is or how much time has passed. We understand how hard this can be, so there’s absolutely no judgment here. 🙋🏻

What has your experience with “letting go” been like? Do you find it easy, or does it depend on the situation? If you’ve learned how to let things go in a way that works for you, what helped you get there? What tips or insights would you share with others?
