Yesterday you were told to announce everyday to everyone that you are wealthy until you believe it heart and soul. Probably you questioned why I said to do that and what the importance was. Well, the answer is both simple and complicated.
What is the simple answer?
The simple answer is that affirmations are something that when repeated over and over again have the ability to change the mind. Using a firm declaration of something to be true, it is intended to convince the mind that what it wants to happen will. Sort of a sub-conscious programming.
How is it complicated?
Using general or overly specific affirmations are not beneficial. Saying “I want a job” is a general statement that might have you land a job working a gas station, managing a crab ship or any job. The job may not be anything you like! However an affirmation of “I will win the lottery today” is too specific. Better suggestions would be “I am a successful business owner” then specify your type business. Or “I make more money every day”
What is up with the present tense?
So you noticed the “I am” or “I make” part of the trick of affirmations is to make in the present tense. Many people theorize that by saying a future tense the affirmation is always in the future. Yet, the biggest reason is that the current statement with the “I” or first person helps your mind encourage that realization.
What does that mean?
This means your mind is more eager to make this a reality. You want your reality to be your affirmation, so you make it present tense and regarding yourself. You want it to be good, so say positive things.
This is your future!
GRAB HOLD!
