law of polarity. The law of polarity on a belief is that there is a negative side and a positive side of a belief; it's either true or false; you choose to believe it or not. The belief that we tune into, the belief that we give energy, is the frequency in which we vibrate.
Our mindset contains a series of thoughts and beliefs. I’ve learned from my mentor Joseph McClendon that it’s about what we think and believe about ourselves, others, and the world around us. He calls the mind the software. What we think and feel is so. The Bible says that as a man thinketh, so is he. I’ll

or hold us back.
There is beauty in a belief. You can choose which side of the spectrum you are on and how much energy to give it. At any moment, Monica could believe that she was brilliant and tune out the frequency of dumb. The frequency at which we vibrate is the belief that we provide the most energy. It's where our channel is tuned. It's the belief and the power that we feed it that controls our life.
Mindset Matters The frequency at which we vibrate determines the things and people we draw into our lives. When we believe low-energy thoughts about ourselves, we become victims of ourselves. We are prisoners in our minds and tend to stay stuck in that lowlevel belief. Our mindset determines how we treat ourselves,
