Your thoughts and words are declarations of who you think you are and how you perceive the world to be. Every time you think a negative thought or make a self-depreciating comment you are actually affirming it as your personal truth. Fortunately, the same holds true for positive thoughts and statements.<\/p>\n<p>Strong positive affirmations are powerful means of self-transformation and are key to\u00a0creating the life you want. Affirmations replace the limiting beliefs that you have internalized for years with positive statements that &#8220;affirm&#8221; who you want to be and how you want to experience life.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/successseriesllc.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/101-Power-Thoughts-app.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1175 size-full alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/successseriesllc.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/101-Power-Thoughts-app.jpg\" alt=\"power-thoughts-affirmations\" width=\"170\" height=\"170\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.successseriesllc.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/101-Power-Thoughts-app.jpg 170w, http:\/\/www.successseriesllc.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/101-Power-Thoughts-app-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 170px) 100vw, 170px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Affirmations<\/strong> are a regular part of my day.

Start with the words <\/strong><strong><em>I am<\/em><\/strong><strong>.\u00a0<\/strong>The words <em>I am <\/em>are the two most powerful words in the language. The subconscious takes any sentence that starts with the words <em>I am <\/em>and interprets it as a command\u2014a directive to make it happen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Use the present tense.<\/strong> Describe what you want as though you already have it, as though it is already accomplished.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Wrong: <\/em>I am going to get a new red Porsche 911 Carrera.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Right<\/em>: I am enjoying driving my new red Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. State it in the positive. Affirm what you want, not what you don\u2019t want.\u00a0<\/strong>State your affirmations in the positive. The unconscious does not hear the word no. This means that the statement \u201cDon\u2019t slam the door\u201d is heard as \u201cSlam the door.\u201d The unconscious thinks in pictures, and the words \u201cDon\u2019t slam the door\u201d evoke a picture of slamming the door. The phrase \u201cI am no longer afraid of flying\u201d evokes an image of being afraid of flying, while the phrase \u201cI am enjoying the thrill of flying\u201d evokes an image of enjoyment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Wrong<\/em>: I am no longer afraid of flying.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Right<\/em>: I am enjoying the thrill of flying.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Keep it brief.\u00a0<\/strong>Think of your affirmation as an advertising jingle. Act as if each word costs $1,000. It needs to be short enough and memorable enough to be easily remembered<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Make it specific.\u00a0<\/strong>Vague affirmations produce vague results.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Wrong: <\/em>I am driving my new car.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Right: <\/em>I am driving my new red Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Include an action word ending with <\/strong><strong><em>&#8211; ing<\/em><\/strong><strong>.\u00a0<\/strong>The active verb adds power to the effect by evoking an image of doing it right now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Wrong: <\/em>I express myself openly and honestly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Right: <\/em>I am confidently expressing myself openly and honestly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Include at least one dynamic emotion or feeling word.\u00a0<\/strong>Include the emotional state you would be feeling if you had already achieved the goal. Some commonly used words are <em>enjoying, joyfully, happily, celebrating, proudly, delighted. <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Wrong: <\/em>I weigh 168 pounds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Right: <\/em>I am feeling agile and great at 168!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Note that the last one has the ring of an advertising jingle. The subconscious loves rhythm and rhymes. That\u2019s why we are able to more easily remember things such as \u201cSticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Make affirmations for yourself, not others. <\/strong>When you are constructing your affirmations, make them describe your behavior, not the behavior of others.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Wrong: <\/em>I am watching Johnny clean up his room.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Right: <\/em>I am effectively communicating my needs and desires to Johnny.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Add \u201c<\/strong><strong><em>or something better\u201d. <\/em><\/strong>When you are affirming getting a specific situation (job, opportunity, vacation), material object (house, car, boat), or relationship (husband, wife, child), always add the words \u201cor something (someone) better.\u201d Sometimes our criteria for what we want comes from our ego or from our limited experience. Sometimes there is someone or something better that is available for us, so let your affirmations include this phrase when it is appropriate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Example: <\/em>I am enjoying living in my beautiful beachfront villa on the Ka\u2019anapali coast of Maui or somewhere better.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Your Action Step for Today<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Please use these guidelines to write your own effective, powerful affirmations and share one or two in the comment section below to inspire others.<\/p>\n<p>One of my missions in life is to move and inspire people to live their highest vision.\u00a0 It is my honor and privilege to serve you in this way.\u00a0 I make it an absolute MUST to inspire each and every one of you to STEP UP and live the life of your dreams, NOW, and not settle for less than you can be, do, have, say or believe.<\/p>\n<p>There is no better endorsement than that of a friend, so if you like what you\u2019re reading or are using my many\u00a0<a href=\"\/workshop-resources.php\" target=\"_blank\">resources<\/a>, tell a friend to join the\u00a0<a href=\"\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\">Tom Hart Success Series Community<\/a>, to receive email notifications of\u00a0<a href=\"\/wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\">new blog posts<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"\/wordpress\/talk-with-tom\/\">Talk with Tom podcast episodes<\/a>,\u00a0learn of\u00a0<a href=\"\/wordpress\/upcoming-events\/\" target=\"_blank\">upcoming events<\/a>,\u00a0and other news, by\u00a0<a href=\"\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\">visiting my website<\/a>\u00a0 and clicking on the offer to receive my FREE monthly resource by leaving their email address (<em>we respect your privacy and do not tolerate spam and\u00a0will never sell, rent, lease or give away\u00a0your\u00a0information to any third party<\/em>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#GrowYourLife &nbsp; Tony Robbins calls them &#8220;Incantations&#8221;;\u00a0Deepak Chopra\u00a0calls\u00a0them &#8220;Mantras&#8221;; I, and others, prefer to say &#8220;Affirmations&#8221;.
