Affirmations help you on your path to success. Find out about them here and how to use them yourself
AFFIRMATIONS- An Easy Way to Achieving Success!
Affirmations are easy! You can use them as an effective way of controlling and directing your energy. And, you can accomplish real results! An affirmation is simply a positive statement which you use to change your reality. Our thoughts become things in the world. In fact, nothing really exists without us thinking it first. And we truly are what we believe.
Our energy therefore follows the statements we concentrate upon throughout the day. Thus, we manifest what we focus on in our minds. Negative affirmations can consequently send us off track quite quickly. Sometimes we talk to ourselves in a way we would never talk to anyone else!
A positive affirmation is a statement which builds us up and empowers us to make the most of our future opportunities. Self-belief is key to all success. We are all like magnets attracting negative energy or positive energy with our minds.
The good news is that we are able to reprogramme our minds quite easily. Such techniques such as NLP use the power of using different parts of the mind to achieve spectacular results. Blockages, procrastination and negative thoughts may be removed. But affirmations, while they may take a little longer to work, can begin to change your mind, your view of the world and the actual results you get. Also, this can happen within a surprisingly short time frame.
Emile Coué: A Spiritual Leader of Affirmations
We can’t really talk about affirmations without paying some homage to the man who invented them, Émile Coué de la Châtaigneraie. A psychologist and a spiritual man who was incredibly forward thinking, Mr Coué did not think of himself as a healer, but rather as someone who provided the means for people to heal themselves. This process which he called “Auto-suggestion” were the first affirmations, with the prototype being ” “Every day, in every way, I’m getting better and better.”
We now know that the process of repetition of positive and motivating phrases really does work. So, here is how to get started.
Affirmations- Practical Steps to Achievement
Try these practical steps to practising affirmations to best effects.
1] Meditate on the love and success you desire, as a way of developing a list of your needs and wants. To really choose what you want to improve, you should not rush. At the very least, take some you time and do some deep thinking about your life. What do you want to improve? Affirmations which reflect our deepest desires are most effective and fruitful. Draw up a short list of keywords which you can form into short sentences.
2] Write out a sentence which captures your heart’s desire. Affirmations are not wishes. Affirmations are expectations. So, construct the sentence in the present tense. Thus, we move into the reality of affirmation right away rather than hoping it might happen. For example, ‘I am creative now’ rather than ‘I will be creative soon’.
3] You need to focus on the positive rather than the negative when constructing your affirmations. Remember, you attract the contents of your affirmation. Always keep your words positive and uplifting.
4] You should stick to a maximum of 3 affirmations, so that it is possible for you to memorize the sayings. You should also keep things simple and straightforward for the greatest fruitfulness.
Living the Positive Life
5] You should allow your lifestyle to align with your desired affirmations to achieve the best results. Be careful not to think or act the opposite to your affirmation because you will block your own progress.
6] You should build your affirmations into your daily routine. You need to set aside 2 or 3 times a day where you can repeat your affirmation aloud with conviction. See yourself as speaking the statement into a reality with as much confidence as possible. You should act and speak as if your affirmation has already come true to become a magnet for your wants and needs.
7] You should write out your affirmation on a card and place it where you can see it on a regular basis. You cpild use post its and stick them around in places like the mirror, the fridge, on your desk and so forth, where you can see them and repeat these on a regular basis. But, if you are able, then you should be creative and turn the card into a work of art. Spending time on creating yoir affirmations helps you set intention.
8] You should make every effort to enter into the truth of your desired affirmation. Consciousness about your daily life, what tasks you are enjoying and what you are not, gratitude for what you have, are all helpful too.
Using positive affirmations is a fun and simple way to harness your energy and make it work for you in powerful ways. So, start small with just one affirmation until you get into the habit of declaring them and reaping the benefits. You will become a channel of positive power!
