What is faith? Faith is a belief that someone or something will "work out" well. Everyone has faith in something, because if we didn't, we wouldn't do anything.
You have to have faith or trust that the food that you eat won't kill you. You have faith that the food will help you to feel better when you eat it. You have faith that a bridge won't collapse when you cross it.
Confidence is simply faith that you can accomplish something. You have to have faith in doctors to consider taking pills from them or allowing surgeons to perform surgery on you or a loved one.
If you didn't have faith in the food, you wouldn't eat it. If you didn't have faith in doctors, then you wouldn't listen to them. If you didn't have faith in your vehicle you wouldn't drive it.
There are different levels of faith; it's not like an on or off switch. If you drive you have to have faith that other people won't crash into you. You can still drive even if you distrust other people to a point. You just might be more attentive than other drivers would be.
The reason people enter a state called highway hypnosis is because they have enough faith in their driving, the vehicle, and the people around them, that they feel able to think about other things and, so, they get meditative.
There are myriad people, places, and things that we have faith in that we don't think about or appreciate each day. Whenever you take any kind of action you're relying on faith.
Did you drink? eat? sleep? drive? You can start to think, "Who or what did I have faith in that allowed me to do those things?"
How do you increase faith? Make a list of the the times when things have worked out prior to this one. You can also appreciate each time something works out, no matter how "small" it is to you. The more you appreciate, the better things get.
My vehicle had a hiccup last week and I decided to try to drive it today to test it out again. I spent time thinking about every stop and start I performed. And each time it went smoothly I was appreciative that it worked this time. It helped to increase my faith and trust in it again.
Take a few minutes out to think about what you have faith in and how much you rely on faith each day.
Afterwards, you should be able to say the affirmation, "I have a lot of faith," and mean it. Keep saying that affirmation while thinking of the list and watch your faith grow in other areas.
Your experiences of the world are not always a reflection of reality. Your brain has to make decisions of what to focus on, & THAT is what you perceive. Your perception is not always correct because it's not built on all data. So question what you believe. "Is it true ?"

Oftentimes on social media users will make "social comparisons." They see what other people are doing or looking like in their photos and think, "I wish I had that" or "I wish I looked like that." It's the "grass is always greener on the other side" type thinking.
Most people don't post the times when they don't look their best or when they're sick. Married couples don't post all the times they get into fights. It's easy for someone single to look at happy couple pictures on a timeline and think they'd feel better "if only they met someone."
Females may see made-up women or just filters like the ones in the video/article and feel self-conscious about their own looks. Males may see men with hard abs and wish they looked like that too. Check out the link to see how quickly some different poses and lighting can change your abs. https://www.eviemagazine.com/post/influencer-josephine-livin-reveals-truth-face-filters-body-morphing-tricks
We often miswant what others are showing on social media. I ...
If someone is criticizing you, you should ask, “Is it true?”
If it’s true, then there’s something you can do (work on it). But if it’s not true, why spend time worrying about their incorrect beliefs?
Many children internalize the criticisms they receive when younger. Some things may have been true, but they blew them up into larger problems than they were. Some critiques are just plain wrong (from people projecting their own issues onto the child).
It’s our responsibility to check to see if something is true or not. Otherwise, we’ll live a whole life thinking incorrect things about who we are.
Know Thyself.
Some misunderstand getting prayers answered or manifesting things and think it’s too easy so it must be incorrect. And they’ll ignorantly make fun of Christianity or the Law of Attraction belief that you can simply “Ask & Receive.” Of course, that comes from simplifying the belief down so much that it makes it incorrect.
In this article I discuss the caveats to getting what you ask for from both the Christian perspective and Law of Attraction perspective.

We all have limiting beliefs that can distort our view of reality. Because I deal with questioning beliefs, I more easily recognized these limiting beliefs in the "woke." I discuss how having limiting beliefs is like going through life with distorting glasses on in this article:

I also share a few things from James Lindsay (newdiscourses.locals.com) if you'd like to learn more about this from a slightly different perspective than mine.
