If You Believe It.....You Can Have
It
by Dan Robey
As you know, I am a big fan of positive affirmations.
Positive affirmations can help you reach your goals
by simply believing in them and repeating them.
A friend of mine named Jeff Staniforth is a world renown expert on
positive affirmations. Jeff has developed an extremely powerful
affirmations program that can truly change you life. Here is what
Jeff says about affirmations.
By definition, an affirmation is a statement repeated time and
again either verbally or mentally -- or written
down. The words of the affirmation statement - in themselves -when
spoken, thought of, or written *without* a pictorial (visualized)
or emotional connection -- make a very weak affirmation.
Affirmations, when worded correctly -- and when emotionally charged
- are able to tap into the unlimited creative power of your
subconscious mind, and manifest your desires.
Affirmations are not all created equal. Some are, of course,
better than others. There are *power affirmations*
that have been proven again and again to work - and I'll reveal
some of them in a moment.
When you examine the structure of these power affirmations, you,
too, can learn how to create your own
powerful affirmations for your specific purposes.
Consider the following:
"I am what I choose to be."
"All my needs are met instantaneously."
"I love and accept myself exactly as I am."
"_____________ comes to me easily and effortlessly."
(Fill in the blank with what you desire.)
"I am now perfectly healthy in body, mind and spirit."
"I now create my wonderful, ideal life."
What do the above power affirmations have in common?
1) They're stated in the present tense.
An affirmation is more effective when stated in the present tense.
For example; "I now have a wonderful job."
Avoid affirming something in the future tense, e.g. "I am going
to
have a wonderful job" or the results will always
be waiting to happen.
2) They express a positive statement.
Affirmations need to be stated in the most positive terms possible.
Avoid negative statements. Affirm what
you do want, rather than what you don't want. For example: "I
am no
longer sick." This is a negative statement.
Instead, affirm: "I am now perfectly healthy in body,
mind and
spirit." This statement is much more powerful as it
is positive and reinforces your desired goal and doesn't confuse
your subconscious mind with the mention of
the undesirable condition.
3) They're short and specific.
Short affirmations are easy to say, and have a far greater impact
at the subconscious level than those which
are long and wordy. Keeping them specific and to the point adds
power as the idea is uncluttered by extraneous elements.
The mechanics that make affirmations powerful are:
* Repetition
The importance of repetition cannot be overemphasized. It imprints
the affirmation into your subconscious mind.
* Emotions
Get involved, be passionate, and use your emotions. Think carefully
about the meaning of the words as you repeat them rather than just
writing, typing or saying them.
* Persistence
Practicing affirmations with persistence achieves results much
sooner than practicing them periodically.
Successive sessions will have a compounding effect.
* Belief
You don't necessarily have to believe your affirmation initially,
in order for it to work. Belief will grow with your
forthcoming successes. What you do need is the ability to *feel*
what it would be like when the desire you're
affirming is fulfilled, or your need met. Every time that you have
a need -- and that need is met -- a certain
"feeling" is produced in you.
You need to evoke that same feeling
when you state your affirmation. In other
words, you need to feel with every fiber of your being that what
you desire has already happened. Without this
feeling, your affirmation is powerless.
* Impress Yourself
Personalize your affirmations. They must *resonate* with you --
feel right for you. The stronger your connection
with the affirmation, the deeper the impression it makes on your
mind, and the sooner you will experience
positive results.
So there you have it - the simple formula for creating affirmations
that work. Based on the above, you can easily create your own
affirmations to manifest any desire or need you have in life.
Although the practice of affirmations is easy, some people find it
challenging to repeat the affirmations
continuously while maintaining the highly charged emotional state
necessary in making affirmations work.
