We spend so much time trying to get the business up and running that we may end up becoming burned out and lose our motivation. There is so much to learn and
Youve heard the buzzwords: Attitude is everything! Change yourperspective! Have a positive outlook! But, can these words reallychange our future? And if so, how? In my childhood and adolescence, I was skeptical. If mybrother was born without being able to walk how could my attitudeor outlook change anything?As I got older I continued to reflect on a youth seemingly filledwith disappointments and doubts. And in talking to my friends andfamily, I realized I wasnt alone; weve all experienced them. Then, I started taking a good, long look at myself and my feelings: I realized that my deepest feelings were the ones guiding me forward; challenging me to reach to the depth of what I was ableto feel happy or sad and allowed me to explore the dimensionsof my being.So, why do I share this with you? Through all the laughs, disappointmentand sorrow Ive learned: We can use the power of our feelings to build a stronger, happier, positive life. Ive also discovered a secret way to facilitate this process: Affirmations.How Affirmations WorkHow do affirmations work? They are a simple exercise that can tap you in to this positive, creative part of yourself. This place is free from your ego (the part of all of us that isa leaky tire in constant need of being filled up from outside sources).Affirmations are different. They allow you to tap into the secret,powerful, depths of yourself and care for your being by affirmingwhat is there.Do you feel a calling toward a particular feeling you have beenhaving? Is there something in your life that you need and desireto manifest?If you can use you mind's eye to creatively visualize you can bringforward all that you desire. How? Simply by affirming that it is already here.Creating AffirmationsThe key to the success of an affirmation is its potential or the potentiality of your creative thought.The laws of the universe will respond then not to your askingfor what you wish for it does not respond to begging or supplication.The universe responds to affirming statements: I AM BEAUTIFUL!I AM HEALTHY!I AM KIND AND LOVING!Thus, it takes the ideas of creative visualization one step further.It takes a picture from inside your head, a thought and creates a statement about this thought in a word or verbal format. Take some time to affirm what is in your heart. What do you wish for? Choose an affirming statement to focus on and place your attention on it:I AM ABUNDANT!I AM LOVED!Applying An AffirmationSo how to make the laws of affirmation work in your life? Lets focus for a moment on the word aspect of this "thought, wordand action" process. The words I am are a very powerful tool. These words, once again,exceed the ego. I AM tells the universe to put the wheels of energy in motion. It tells the universe you are ready to receive your prayer. Already you can see the importance of this process. I AM Beautiful!If I write this on an index card and place it in my pocket, write it several times in my notebook, say it out loud to myself: What happens? I manifest beauty! I feel beautiful. Waiting The Results In PeaceOnce you have affirmed and written you intentions and spoken them, the action needs to come from you. Think: If I alreadyhad the thing I wished for, what would I do?For example: if I am beautiful I need to ask myself: Am I wearingbeautiful clothing? Is my make-up on? Am I honoring my body withexercise and nutrition? And if not: I need to take a long look at how I am treating myself If I wasn't feeling beautiful before,perhaps treating myself better is what I need to heal. Take a moment today to focus on what you need to heal. Thenapply the Thought Word Action process. I think you will find it to be a powerful tool.For more information on the beauty of affirmations please checkout Louise Hays Power Thought Cards: www.hayhouse.comAlso highly recommended is Dr. Wayne W. Dyers book Theres a Spiritual Solution To Every Problem. A great read. Remember: Affirm, take action and wait the results in peace. Continue to remain open to receive and I think you will find that that your blessings will far exceed your expectations.
