The terms are used interchangeably often, and with good reason!
All these terms are CLOSER to each other than you might realize, and yet different.
And so I thought I’d do up a bit on it!
First, the two things – FAITH. And belief.
The two are different.
One moves mountains. The other leads up to the other.
In other words, FAITH is what moves mountains – seemingly umovable ones.
Belief does too, but if it’s just belief, then its probably goals you thought you would achieve anyway …
When belief gets upgraded to FAITH – NOW THERE YOU’VE GOT A WINNER!
Faith means TRUST.
Trusting in yourself when no-one else does, and when all seems impossible.
It means trusting the Universe to deliver what you want!
In your ability to CREATE results!
And if you believe all the above, great! You already DO HAVE faith.
And on that note, an importan tthing.
The difference between BLIND faith and real faith.
(some of you on this list might remember the example I gave on this a few emails back)
Well, blind faith is when (for instance) you dont really know the answer to something, but pretend you do.
And it’s something that you instinctively know might or might not happen, but say it will anyway.
REAL faith?
In those situations, you would smile an inscrutable Cheshire cat grin and say nothing, or smile and say “maybe”.
While believing deep down inside that it will!
Case in point being when I was put on the spot in 2018. THAT TIME!
I was hit out of left field basically.
I had NO LOGICAL or any answer planned, or otherwise.
I didnt expect it. I was coming home after a workout!
And the question that was sprung at me by people you’d think were closest to me?
Was a very WELL Thought out one, or so they THOUGHT hehe.
A true case of logic not trumping GUT and real faith, which it never does. Never ever!
My answer just “came”.
NO logic. NO planning. Spontaneous!
And then equally spontaenously, I changed the time frame I gave said people to do said thing.
And MIRACULOUSLY, the help I needed appeared out of nigh on NOWEHERE without me evven trying.
Typos and all aside, that, bro is TRUE faith which most folks will NEVER, EVER understand – but should!
And fitness wise, here is how it works.
Belief is what you’ve been programmed with i.e. gyms are “needed” to get fit.
Faith is KNOWING instinctively that you’ve been fed with a crock of shit all your life in that regard.
Logically, you can back this up of course. You can point to results etc.
And faith is standing in front of the mirror, looking at a bloated and corpulent YOU – and MAKING A VOW to yourself that you WILL no matter WHAT – get the fittest you’ve ever been.
Once you have that faith!
Watch out!
Them mountains will nigh disappear.
I should know. I did it, and continue to!
So can you, my friend.
So can YOU!!!
Get on the TRAIN – NOW!
Best,

PS – More such typo ridden motivation (well, not really, hehe, I do spell check books occasionally) is available right HERE – Gumption Galore.
PS#2 – This post should be read in conjunction with that post I did up a while ago about how I knew everything was going to turn out GREAT. Do a search on the blog, and you’ll find it! (happened towards end of 2019).
PPS – Those days when you wake up. Just KNOWING it will turn out OK. And great. That FEELING! THAT IS FAITH! REAL FAITH! Trick’s to live like that DAILY.
