Beliefs create reality

Melody Beattie
About This Quote

The world is a place of many possibilities and beliefs. If we believe in something, we create the reality of what we want to be true. We can create our own realities and change them as we please. For instance, if you are overweight, you may believe that it is your fate to always be overweight.

You may repeatedly be told that you are fat by others. If you believe this, you will eventually become fat. But, if you believe that you can become fit, slim, fit and slim all at the same time then that belief will create the reality of your goal.
