Paradigm Shifting How to Change Your Beliefs to Change Your Reality ft Leeor, Ryan, Victor and Gavin

This video, I'm going to show you exactly how to shift your levels of belief, understanding paradigm shifting at a deeper level, and then also how you can trade in your old beliefs and maybe even let them go to live in a totally new paradigm. Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron Doughty. I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video, I'm going to be sharing with you exactly how you can shift your paradigms of belief, understanding the levels of belief and how you can trade them in, maybe even shift to where you don't even need those beliefs. So first off, just to give a little bit of context, I'm gonna move the camera around a little bit so you can see that I'm somewhere else. I'm not in Vegas, I'm not in the usual background backdrop type thing. So I'm here at a place called Rhythmia in Costa Rica. I'm here with about 4 other YouTubers, and I'll see if maybe in this video I'll introduce them to you guys. I'm gonna be talking about that of shifting beliefs and it's 'cause I'm kind of going through my own shifting of beliefs right now. In a way, I've been living a certain way and maybe you've seen my videos on YouTube and I do daily videos and for a long time, I'll continue to do daily videos. But one thing I'm understanding is the levels of belief when it comes to taking action and the necessity that I feel a lot of times my ego has to take 'cause you may notice I take a lot of action. Now, it's a thing 'cause I love taking action. So sometimes it's like, it's a little bit tricky because I'm so passionate about what I do that it doesn't feel like hard work. But at the same time, there's times that I realize I'm almost taking action out of a place of lack. It's like I want to get somewhere else, you know? Okay, cool, 400,000 subscribers on YouTube is cool, but what about that of a million, you know? So it's almost like there's always this ante in the mind that's always increasing, and it's almost like the action from which I am taking that action, the energy from which I'm taking that action is something that is causing a little bit more resistance. So last time I was here, I got this message of letting go, like let go of the outcome, your ego doesn't have to work so hard. And I felt like I got that message, but this whole last year, it's been almost exactly a year and I feel like my life's been taken to a completely new level. Like I'm gonna be traveling the world, I'm gonna be doing speaking events, I'm gonna be doing a whole new type of like almost bringing a whole new model into my business. And it's really cool, like I'm really excited about it. However, I'm realizing that some of my old beliefs I can start to let go of. And I had this belief, one of those beliefs I'll share with you right now is normally what I do is I get up every single morning and I make a video no matter what. Now the paradox is of course I'm making a video right now, but even just the thought of knowing that I don't have to wake up every morning and make a video, it's very different because for the last year and a half that I've been full-time on YouTube, I have made a video every single day. I've worked, you know, doing stuff for my business every single day. I haven't had a day off at all, not one day off. And 'cause last time I was here at this place, I was making daily videos still. Like I said, get up every day, make a video. Of course I'm making a video right now, but it's a little bit different because I feel like because I've let go of needing to make a video, it's almost like there's more creative juices flowing. But at the same time, I'm realizing that in a way there's a paradigm where when I let go of thinking that I need to be in the paradigm of making a video a day, It's almost thinking that my ego has to do everything. Now what if I were to like relax and let the universe do some of the work for me or do more of the work or most of the work for me? And what if by doing this, I was telling my buddy Victor about this and I'll talk and maybe I'll ask some of them what they think about this, all the other YouTubers here. But when it comes to this, what I'm telling my subconscious mind right now is that I don't have to get up every single day to make a daily video to keep my momentum going. It's not like everything's gonna go off the rails if I don't make one video for one day. But you see, the ego thinks that. But what I'm doing right now is I'm almost sending a subconscious message to my mind that's saying, yo, it's okay to not make a video every single day. It's okay to just relax. It's okay to let go. It's okay to have fun. Because for some reason in my mind, because I've become so much of a goal-action-oriented person, it's almost like I attribute success to action and action only. But it's taking out of the consideration the power of the universe and trusting the process. So what I'm realizing is I can let go of the outcome. I can allow things to be as they are. And then as I do that, I almost allow for more amazing things to happen. And I tapped into this a little bit last time, but I felt like I kind of gave, I didn't give up, but I tapped into this, was like, okay, but I still gotta go do this. And it's almost like my mind then like took over again. So my intention this time is to kind of go through it and to maybe take you along through it as well. And show you the different levels of it. But first off, know that paradigm shifting is about taking out these perspectives and seeing them from new points of view, seeing how there could be new possibilities because the mind and the beliefs, 'cause understand beliefs create our reality, the mind and the beliefs think that this is the way reality works. Like if I wanna be successful, I have to take a lot of action. That's what I have to do. So it's kind of a funny thing. Let me show you around real quick. This will be like, I guess kind of like a vlog type style. I don't really normally do those, but I think I'll show you around a little bit. I just kind We went almost a whole day without sleep because we were on a plane from midnight one day and we didn't get here till about 2 the next, 2 in the PM the next day. Then we ate, we was busy with transformational breathwork, which is really cool. So anyways, this is a, I got like an old iPad, all my old books on it. So I know I haven't traded in for a new one yet. Got my computer right there, which I haven't used. I'll talk a little bit more about that in a minute as well. This is my little meditation spot right here. So I always meditate staring at a candle flame. I put a pillow 'cause it's a tile on the floor. So it makes it a little bit easier. I got a nice bed. I got my little Earth Pulse thing. I don't know if you guys heard of that. I have these like magnets that put electric— it's a certain energy field that goes over my bed called Earth Pulse. And then just a little bathroom over here. And then I'll go outside here for a sec and let me show you what it looks like.

It's really green.

You can see. Maybe I'll go around right now. I have my door open, but I think it's okay. What's up, Ryan? So this is Ryan Cropper right over here. I just got up and was filming a video and I was like, oh, I'm gonna walk around real quick. So this is Ryan Cropper. He's got a YouTube channel as well. So I was just making a video. You let me know what you think. It's more like a personal development type style video. I was talking about like paradigms of beliefs. So the idea is that beliefs create our reality, right? And at certain points in our life I was talking about how like right now I'm going through like a shifting or a paradigm shift in my beliefs because I'm letting go of beliefs that don't serve me. Like I had this belief that like I have to take a lot of action to be successful. So I've been making like daily videos on YouTube for like a year and a half and it's gotten me to where I am. But I'm realizing now that I can like let go and I don't have to like work so hard. So I'm kind of like taking those beliefs and I'm trading them out and kind of letting them go and like trusting the process more that I don't have to do that.

Yeah.

Has there been ever a time in your life when you maybe were going through something and you realized that you could like let go of something?

Oh yeah, pretty much the exact same thing you're talking about. When you're going through the realization that you don't need to put that much effort into anything, right? Because in the beginning we think we need to do so much. Is the camera there?

Yes, it's right, it's right here.

Camera's right there.

Yeah, yeah, there you go.

In the beginning you feel like you have to do so much to really like drive your business or whatever you're doing forward. With YouTube, it's because we're told to like hustle and hustle. Yeah, the reality is when it comes to manifestation, and I guess when you want to look at it in realistic terms, you don't have to do much of anything. As long as you're doing the right stuff, you're going to be good. And I have like this self-affirmation that I actually say to myself to remind myself of the moment that I actually figured that out, which is you're more than enough. Whatever you're going through on that day, that's enough. Whatever you want to Right. And so I don't push myself to do like a dozen videos in one day. There are some YouTubers that like that, they can really knock it out. Yeah, I just don't do that.

So maybe, maybe by doing that you're also more in alignment.

So it's like it's, it's better vibes underneath the videos you do make.

Yeah, if you do make them.

Yeah, it's more genuine. It was actually talking about that with another YouTuber.

Mm-hmm.

How we make what we want to make on that day because it excites us and it gives us the drive. Yeah, it wakes us up, it gives us the energy, right, the videos. And so it comes off as more authentic. Yeah, because it's what we want to do.

Yeah, I could see that too, because also I think that energy is contagious. So when you're making a video that's something you're passionate about, people can feel that underneath the video. So it's not the words, but it's the energy underneath the words. So if I were to like grind it out to make another video and it was with energy of like desperation, I didn't even make a video, they'll feel that. Yeah, you know what I mean? So it's like, it's like the whole energy shifts, you know what I mean?

Cool.

Yeah.

All right, man.

Well, thanks. I'm gonna see you in a little bit. I just, uh, it was so random that I ran into him because I was just showing them like around the grounds and what it looks like, and I was like, maybe I'll meet up with the other YouTubers later. And I come out and he's like, he's got to film, he's filming like right out here. Yeah, so it's gonna be a lot of this going on. Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of— there's the filming for Thrive here as well. Yeah. All right, man, I'll see you in a little bit, dude. So yeah, so another thing, another way that I kind of describe that of beliefs is seeing them kind of like as vehicles. So when I say vehicles, what I mean is at certain points in our life, what happens is we have these certain beliefs that serve us. So for a while, what served me was taking a lot of action, was doing a lot of things. And I did that for a long period of time and it got me to where I am. But at a certain point, it's almost like I can switch out that vehicle. 'Cause the thing is, is that beliefs, that we have that create our reality, they serve us for a certain period of time, but there will come a time when you will trade out that belief in the same way that you might have a car and you might eventually trade that out. It'll serve you for a period of time, but eventually you wanna upgrade. Now, what happens is we decide that we are going to trade out that belief because it served us for a period of time. We don't have to trade it out with resistance, like I hated that car, I hated that belief or whatever. It's just the awareness that it served us for a period of time. That car got you from point A to point B for a certain period of time. Now, the key is understanding that you can trade it out and not be attached to it, but at certain levels, you'll see that there's a certain point in time where you eventually can get to a paradigm to where you don't have to keep trading out beliefs. This is where we move from that of a, if you look at that scale of consciousness that I share a lot, you'll see the scale of consciousness going from 400 or zero shame, fear, guilt, all the way up to willingness then eventually you get that 400, which is reasoning, which is the intellect, and then 500, which is love. When you go from the levels of understanding that your beliefs create your reality, you're at like a 400-level consciousness, and that is within that paradigm that you're creating your own reality, which works very well, and it's beyond the paradigm that a lot of people use the law of attraction with. However, what also happens is when you move into that of the love consciousness, what you do is that's when you start to give up the need to trade out the cars. That's when you stop needing to do that. And instead you realize that you can have things come to you. So imagine it's almost like you have like Uber Eats or you have like things that come to you and you don't actually have to keep going everywhere from point A to point B. That's a higher level paradigm, but that includes getting more into the heart space. It includes transcending the ego, the intellect. And as we do that, we find that a lot of things in our life begin to shift. So trade out those beliefs, understand they may serve you for a period of time. You can almost see it as a car that got you from point A to point B, but eventually you can allow things to come to you and you don't need to go everywhere in that way. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna continue this idea. I'm gonna go see, there's 3, 4 other YouTubers here and I'll get their perspectives as well. A lot of them are actually, I think would have a lot of cool stuff to share. So, all right, cool.

Alright, so one down.

Now I gotta find 3, 4 other YouTubers, however many people, but I'm gonna be asking them about shifting beliefs and understanding any times that they've shifted a paradigm or some type of belief that they let go of that really served them. I know Victor's around here somewhere. There he is, filming a video like usual. How's it going, Vic? Okay, cool. Doing good, man. Question for you. Yeah, so I did a— I already told Victor, he knows I already talked to Ryan about it, so FYI. But yeah, so there's— I'm doing a video right now on shifting belief.

Sure.

And shifting like out of a paradigm. So like I used to have this belief that, you know, and Victor's also my best friend, So he knows like my mentality of how like I had this belief that I had to work really hard to like become successful. And I've kind of kept that belief that things couldn't be easy. And now I'm learning to shift that. So in a similar way, you know, and kind of like what I've been through, is there anything that you've also been able to shift out of like maybe an old belief pattern, maybe an old paradigm of ways of thinking that you shifted out of that you can share that maybe will help other people, maybe a story or something that you've realized recently? Yeah, yeah, if you want to, you can. I don't know where you want to put it.

So sure.

What's up, guys?

Hey, so I'll share about my most recent fundamental pain-inducing belief that I transcended. Okay, so you happen to catch us at Rythmia in Costa Rica, and me and Aaron were here before, but the difference is we got a whole bunch of our YouTube subscribers here. And it's a new experience for me in any way where I've never— I ran into a couple people on the street, but never have I had like 10 to 15 of like my biggest fans here. And it's interesting because I knew for me the walls were going to inevitably come down, meaning when people see me on camera and stuff, that's usually when I'm at my best. That's like when Victor's shining. That's what I do and what I become really good at. But I'm not always like that. I have a lot of quirks, I have insecurities, I have doubts, I have fears, I have pain, I have issues just like everybody else. And I was, uh, and one of, one of my issues is that I'm— I can be socially— I can get— I can have social anxiety, I can be shy. And even though you wouldn't expect that on camera the way I am. So anyways, this shyness is something I've been working through over the past few days, which was heavily triggered due to all the presences of all these YouTube fans. I was coming off kind of really weird with them, and kind of like my dorky mannerisms that make my shyness very obvious were coming out. I'll tell the example I told Aaron.

I think I already know.

Yeah, so yeah, before, before one of the ceremonies, I got this idea like, you should go around and like, and get like, sort of get people like, you know, into a good frame of mind before the ceremony. And so I went up to two of my subscribers. They were talking to a couple other people. I didn't really know me, and I was like, It was awkward to begin with, my little cheesy pep talk, and then at the end, because I was feeling uncomfortable, I decided to shake their hands. So I shook the subscribers' hands for no reason. We were just— there was no real reason for that. And then there was other people around, so I didn't want them to feel left out, so I shook their hand. So it was like, good job. Okay, 4 handshakes, totally out of place. They all sensed that. In fact, one of the subscribers even laughed about it. They're like, aha! Oh, he's shaking our hands. Um, and that's an example. My shyness, my quirkiness was coming out. And so in my ceremony, I was asking, like, I asked sort of like my intention was to deal with that. And, and it came, it came down to the fact that I was insecure. When I was a little kid, I was hit by a firecracker. I was 9 years old, and this big, really big powerful firework was lit, and it tipped over, and it, and it hit me real bad. Um, and I was burned and I had these scars and I had to wear these weird, um, this weird thing for like a whole year. And it was very, you know, tough for a little 9-year-old kid. Anyway, so I had to kind of deal with that a little bit. But what I learned, the belief I learned, was that you— that, Victor, you need to hide your quirkiness, you need to hide your insecurities, because people won't love you, they won't like you if you have those. But what I realized is that people see that.

They're—

I'm not very good at hiding my shyness, hiding my anxiety, but people love me anyways. And that, that allowed me to transcend this tiresome burden of trying to maintain this facade of, of, uh, completion, which is just not true. I don't have to do it.

I don't—

I can let the mask slip and people don't even— they see through the mask anyway. So that was my revelation, that my, my social anxiety came from a place of thinking I need to control how people perceive me when they already see me for who I am and if they're in my life and they love me and choose to be with me anyways. So that was essentially— that was a powerful one.

Yeah.

Yeah.

All right, cool.

Yeah, I could see that in Victor too. Just say we've only been here 3, 4, on the 4th day right now, but it's cool because everyone that's here, you kind of see how they're going through different— they're kind of shifting and letting go of the old. Yeah. And you can see it in you. I can see it in you already. Like Victor's always kind of been like that where were, you know, not knowing how people will perceive and whatnot. So it's cool to see that, um, I feel like Victor has and is letting go of that, and you can kind of feel it in your energy that you're, you know, shifting out of that and just like being yourself and being okay with not being like, you know, going around and doing everything and controlling it all. So yeah, that's cool. Um, so I think still have to— so this is Victor, Victor Odo. Everyone knows, I mean, most of you guys know anyways. Uh, everyone's YouTube channel as well, the people that I'm interviewing right now and talking to is going to be in the description box below. So if you want more and you want to see their channels and whatnot, you'll see it there. But yeah, now I got to go find Lior. I think Lior's next.

She's probably sleeping.

She probably is. It's like noon right now. No, I think she hasn't— she's doing some— she's getting ready for something. Anyways, oh yeah. Anyways, thanks for being on the vid, bro. And yeah, I'll go find Lior. All right, peace.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Alright, thanks dude. Alright, now I have to go find Lior.

Alright, so now I'm off to find Lior, who I know is here somewhere. I know she's been having some pretty transformative type experiences with like realizing her own like stuff that she's going through. She's learning. She's a YouTuber as well. She's a real good friend of mine. So, uh, there she is.

Let me—

I can't switch it around. She's right over there. Am I—

there you are.

Okay, cool. Yes.

All right, so this is Lior Alexandra.

A lot of you already know who she is.

She's amazing.

Um, you're amazing.

Come on, come on. So when— so I was, I was doing a video earlier. I kind of already explained it to her a little bit, but we were talking about beliefs that we shifted, some outdated beliefs even. And I've been going around to all the different YouTubers here and seeing maybe a time in your life, some recent or, you know, back in the day, of a belief that you had, of a pattern or a belief that you then shifted and got rid of. And maybe explain a little bit about what that is and like how you shifted it or what you did for that.

So I had a really big shift this week. I think it was very— it was necessary and it was very profound because it's something that I didn't realize. I knew at a superficial level that I had this belief, but I kind of just really went into like my inner child.

Yeah.

Saw what was going on with me. So I identified that I created as a young girl. I created neural connections in my head that men were unreliable. And I had an amazing— I have an amazing father. Like, he's an incredible person.

I've seen you.

My best friend, like my biggest fan. But when I was younger, he was in some sketchy things, and there was a feeling in the household told of not being protected and not being safe. Well, I didn't realize that that was creating— that was creating patterns in my life as such a young child. We think that we— just because we can't remember what we've been through as children in our earliest stages, like 1 through 5, that it doesn't affect us. But it really affects us so much.

Oh yeah.

And it could affect the way that our relationships play out in our life. So I realized that I have this belief that men equal unreliable. Like, all men, I can't trust men, I have never trusted a man. And because I believed that, I attracted relationships that proved it. So the more I was like, men are unreliable— well, I didn't actually consciously think that. It was an ingrained limited belief. It was an emotion. I never considered like, oh, as a 14-year-old starting to date, like, that all men are unreliable and I'm going to date this guy because he's unreliable. That's not how it was— it worked. It worked very like a subconscious level, right? So I— when I realized that actually this week, I was able to come to terms with that, come to terms with the fact that I don't know what happened when I was a child. Maybe this belief came from energy, maybe the way my father felt about himself, maybe from the way my mom felt about my dad, but it came from somewhere. And it might not have even been true, but it's just a belief I created as a child, as a very young girl. And this week I've decided to rewrite my beliefs, and male no longer equals unreliable. I now see men and males as nurturing, protective, safe, safe, comforting, and good, and really good. And I've had so many situations in my life before I've made this shift that kept proving to me that men are not to be trusted. And now it's like, I feel like I'm here, literally all of you guys are male, obviously, right? And I feel so safe and so confident and comfortable that I'm protected.

And like, that's powerful.

You have really nurturing energy, all of you. And it's like, people usually think that that's the case with female energy. But I've been— I rewrote that belief. And now I believe males are great.

That's huge. That's awesome. So that is amazing. That changes a lot. Like, that changes reality itself for you, because it's a reflection.

I'm able to trust like the men, male workers here, whereas before I would be very suspicious of any man getting near me like at night or anything.

Right, yeah. That's really cool. So yeah, that's very powerful. So the steps were, just to recap, it's kind of like you became aware of it, became aware of it, and then once you became aware of it, you could then see the pattern. And it's really that simple. It's like become aware, it's you become aware of it and then you don't keep living it. But if until you complete it, you repeat it. Yeah.

So I kept repeating it. I've had like maybe 5 or 6 relationships that just kept showing the same way, and I was trying to work through them, but I didn't have the tools until I accepted what happened and what I was feeling. And once you get that, you just accept it, and then you just rewrite it. You just decide what you— what the truth is, because it's not true that all men are unreliable, right? That's— and that felt really bad for me. That felt bad for me my entire life. And like you were telling me earlier, it's If it feels bad, it's not in vibrational resonance.

Yeah.

And now it feels right. It feels so right.

That's so awesome.

Okay, well, I'm happy to hear that. I want you guys to really know that it's like beliefs create reality. So you change the belief, you change the reality. And Lior has already done that just 2, 3 days ago. And you'll see her channel right below. She's amazing. So you'll see that as well. So I think I still gotta go find Gavin. Alright, so now I'm off to find another YouTuber. They're around here everywhere. But yeah. I think it's really interesting to hear other people's stories about how they shifted beliefs, because when we shift beliefs and we go beyond the current beliefs we have, we then get into a new paradigm. There's another one right over here. See Gavin from Wake Up Fulfilled. What's up, bro?

Hey, how you doing?

So this is Gavin, everyone. What I'm going to do is— yeah, so I was just telling them, and I've been kind of going around to all the other YouTubers here, and what we're talking about is shifting belief. And certain paradigms. So I was kind of explaining to them earlier about how I used to like believe I had to work really hard in order to become successful. So I've been doing daily YouTube videos, but being here, I realized that I can let go of that belief that I need to do so much and I can start to just be in more alignment. And one of the ways I'm wiring that in is by not making daily YouTube videos, even though there's still videos going out, but I'm not like making new ones like I normally would to wire in that belief that I don't need to do that anymore. I can let go. So my, my question to you is, is there a time in your past when you've let go of an old belief and then maybe shifted a certain paradigm of belief that allowed you to then experience more or to become more? If you could share a little bit about what that story is, that experience was, and how you did it, I think it'd add a lot of value.

Yeah.

So for me personally, I've had a lot of experiences with beliefs and how that's been able to help me make more money, even grow my YouTube channel. And one of the paradigms and beliefs that I had is that you had to work hard for money. Like, you have to work long hours, you have to stress yourself out, you have to hustle. You know, the whole Gary Vaynerchuk hustle, hustle, hustle mentality. And that actually got me into a lot of trouble because I ruined my health. Um, I wasn't sleeping much, I had anxiety, I had depression. And with this mentality, we're taught by society through when we're growing up that we have to like you know, study, you know, in school and stuff, get an education and work. And, um, you know, we gotta pay for the, for the bills, we gotta go and, um, take care of our family and stuff like this. But actually, in actuality, there's another paradigm where you can actually make a lot of money and you can do it in an easy, fun way. And that's available for you. You just have to start believing it. And for me, when I changed that belief, now I make more money doing less work, and it's more fun and freeing. I'm not stressing myself out. I'm not trying to hustle, not trying to be someone that I'm not. I'm stepping into my purpose and my mission, and through doing that, it gives me a sense of power and knowingness and sort of like trust with the universe. And through that, I, I'm able to not only make a lot of money, I'm able to help a lot of people as well at the same time, which is really, really, really, really, really, really cool.

Yeah, yeah, for sure. Cool, right on, man. Um, yeah, that's the— it's kind of similar theme as me, is like the whole work hard. And, um, I think for some people it's like them getting out of and, uh, and, and getting into maybe believing they can do something, so that, that's when they start taking a lot of action, and that's when they get certain results, and then they keep seeing more and more results, so they, they feel like they need that in order to keep going. But it's like, then you've already upped it to a new notch, to a new paradigm, and it's like, like Einstein said, you can solve it from a new level of paradigm, a new way of thinking, that level of consciousness, you know. So yeah, it's cool to see. So yeah, of course.

So right now we're at Rivmia and I was taking the plant medicine and I had this belief that, you know, because I have a YouTube channel and because I have an audience of people who follow me, I felt like there was an obligation for me to make videos. And that can cause a lot of problems, like, because then again it creates that same mentality of stressing yourself out and panicking, you need to do stuff and whatever it is. And in your life, there might be certain aspects where you feel like you're obligated to do stuff. So find areas in your life where you feel like you're obligated to do stuff and maybe eliminate those out of your life, and then do what makes you feel good.
