Affirmations And Positive Thinking
If you have a hard time focusing on prosperity and you find yourself struggling with negative thoughts and habits that only seem to attract more lack and difficulty into your life, you will find affirmations to be one powerful tool you can use, to turn all that around.
If you have a hard time focusing on prosperity and you find yourself struggling with negative thoughts and habits that only seem to attract more lack and difficulty into your life, you will find affirmations to be one powerful tool you can use, to turn all that around.
Yes, simply by delivering new, positive thinking to your subconscious mind and replacing your old, limiting thoughts with these new, empowering messages, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at what you can genuinely achieve.
Affirmations really do work however, a lot of their effectiveness depends on the the way you word your affirmations. In order for your subconscious mind to accept your affirmations, it needs to believe them.
It is your subconscious mind that will determine how effective they will become in your daily life.
To use an example; if you went around reciting “I am a millionaire” - how effective do you think this affirmation would be? It’s very unlikely you’ll turn into an overnight millionaire, wouldn’t you agree? You or more accurately your subconscious mind will not buy this… Why? Simply because you know this statement is not true.
If you try to feed your subconscious mind a belief that you are a millionaire, it creates a conflict with your current set of beliefs. Your subconscious mind does not like conflict and it often does not like change therefore nothing in your life changes either!
As mentioned above, in order for affirmations to work, you MUST word them in a way that your subconscious mind will not resist them. They must be believable to you.
Instead of “I am a millionaire,” if you were to recite “I am becoming more prosperous every day”... can you see how much more effective this affirmation would be? It’s because your mind will not try to resist this statement. You’re subconscious mind will actually imagine it happening, even if it hasn’t begun to happen yet.
An even stronger affirmation would be to recite “I am open to the best opportunities to make money quickly and easily.” The wording of such an affirmation makes you feel more in control of your circumstances. Rather than just waiting anxiously for money to fall out of the sky, you are sending a message to your subconscious mind that you can control how much money you have by being alert to great opportunities.
Affirmations can vary in the length of time required to firmly “take root” in your mind. For the most part, it depends on the intensity of your opposing beliefs and the level of effort you put forth in turning those beliefs around. If your focus on lack is very strong, you’ll probably have to expend a fair amount of energy and effort to train your mind to focus on prosperity.
Without a doubt this is time and effort well spent because, the more you focus on positive thoughts and prosperous beliefs, the more you’ll find yourself attracting good things into your life.
