The observation that "life on earth is based on competition" is not actually a BELIEF. It is just an observation based on the school of hard knocks. I find that many things in life compete with me and against me - regardless of whether I want them to or not.

Beliefs, ideas and conclusions are all created by self from observation and evaluation of reality.
If you think\conclude\blieve life is a competiton, then that is how life is for you.
If you can't change your mind, then that is the trap you can't escape.
Not realizing you can change is one reason.
And one reason why is you hold onto your observations, you regard them as truths...you know...beliefs.
By "you" i mean any person, not you specifically.

I'm really not sure that is true. I find life quite overwhelming. I don't feel as though I have much power over it.

I can modify myself slowly. But life carries on regardless in its indiscriminate way regardless of how I "see" it.

At the moment I have decided to focus on ME, the I AM. That should help me empower and centre myself.

I am still a learner! lol.

What you say here is also a belief. I'm not sure if it is the best belief to have! Perhaps it is......

I lived under the control of life(circumstances) for 80% of my life.
Curing myself of depression back in 2009 was the first clear sign of being self empowered.
I am a novice of self empowerment and of not being controled or influenced by external forces.
This has been a slow process of increased ability.
Though I know i have no control of some or many external events, I have complete control of how I will respond to the unknowns and the uncontrolable aspects of this interactive environment.

It's my current understanding, which is very open to change according to new information gleaned from my continuous explorations.
If you prefer to use 'belief', all my beliefs are unlocked, they can be modified when new information is recieved.
