"It's the repetition of affirmations, that leads to belief
& once that belief becomes a deep conviction,things begin to happen" ~
Claude Bristol
My constant
pursuit for improvement has spanned my entire life, with much more fervor in
the past 20 years. What success I have achieved and the common theme in
many of the courses, seminars & books has been the ability to change the
way we think about ourselves and see that we can accomplish anything we set our
minds on.
Overcoming
limiting belief and tribal programming are two of the biggest hurdles people
face in recreating their lives or building a business. Just looking at
the numbers of business and relationship failures, we see that most have not
been able to shift the way they think in order to create new possibilities.
When I started
on Twitter,
over 3 years ago, I did not have a plan of what I was going to achieve or
eventually promote. I started sharing motivational messages, primarily
because I had received so much help from reading them countless times. Each
time I came across them, there was always a new slant on the quote, because I
had changed from the previous time.
Over the years
I have attracted thousands of people who have read, applied and shared –RTed,
those motivational messages hundreds of times per day. I have learned
that the world is still in need of motivational messages. Zig Ziglar,
once said – “People
often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing – that's why
we recommend it daily”. That
is why my focus has been sharing messages that will enlighten and inspire
people to become the best they can be.
In my Business
& Life Coaching journey I have learned about and practiced affirmations,
mantras, meditations and the Law of Attraction, and firmly believe that we
create what we think about. Our words and thoughts are manifested in our
physical world. Many do not realize that they alone control what they
think and what those thoughts bring into their existence. What you are
experiencing is the result of your most powerful thoughts. If you don’t
like the results, you need to shift your thoughts to what your truly desire.
Affirming
thoughts can actually bury a negative thought. In Lauren McLaughlin’s
delightful book,
‘Go
To ELF’ there is an incredible lesson I would like to
share. You will need a piece of paper and something to write
with. Write the word ‘Bad’ in the middle of the page. Next directly
over the word ‘Bad’ write the word ‘Good’, repeat writing the word ‘Good’ on
top of the word ‘Bad’ twelve times. You will see that the Good has
covered the Bad. Simple lesson, Yes?
In my
continuing effort to help the Twitterverse and all the lives I touch I have
written almost 400 affirming thoughts and will share them using the hashtag #JustForToday – simple messages to help shift your thoughts in
a positive direction. Find the thoughts that resonate with you or create
your own and share it with us, repeat those thoughts throughout the day. The
more positive messages you fill your head & heart with, the easier it will
become to accomplish your tasks and goals.
There is no
denying that becoming more positive in our thoughts, words & actions will
dramatically change our corner of the world. The more we can create this
shift and introduce the simple process to others, I believe we can create a
better world.
