Affirmations are simple and easy to use.
They are responsible to a great extent for the accomplishments and success of great men and women throughout time.
An affirmation is simply a positive statement that you repeat on a regular basis to reinforce your belief in yourself and your goals or dreams.
To get this started it is a good idea to repeat the following affirmation that is based on one from Dr.
Wayne Dyer's ThePower of Intention.
This affirmation says, "I am whole and perfect as I was created.
I am strong and powerful, for there is a power within me that is greater than the world.
I am loving, harmonious and happy.
" As you say this, think carefully about what it is you are saying.
In the beginning saying it may not mean a whole lot to you, but if you do this without fail every morning, taking your time, thinking about what you are saying, it will not be long before you'll begin to notice a difference your thoughts.
You will feel whole and perfect, strong and powerful, loving, harmonious and happy for you are all of those things.
It is not unlikely that you have lost sight of who you truly are in the push and pull of living day to day.
This practice alone, if done without exception over several months, will change your life! Then, as you go through your day, as often as you possibly can, whenever the thought crosses your mind, repeat your affirmation silently, again, and again and again.
The more often you say it, the faster and stronger will be the change in you.
Soon you will find yourself feeling like a different person.
You will begin to appreciate how perfect you are.
You will begin to see the perfect, strong, loving, beautiful person who has been lying dormant inside you.
You will smile more.
You will laugh more, you will love more.
You won't be able to help yourself.
And as you become all these things to yourself, guess what! You will become all these things to the rest of the world.
You will, by extension, become more and more attractive to others.
They will be drawn to you.
This practice of using affirmations can be used to add momentum to your efforts in any area of your life.
If it is better health you want, choose an affirmation such as, "I am so happy and grateful for my perfect health.
" If you are wanting more success in business, you could say, "I direct my life with absolute expectation that I will achieve the success I deserve.
" It is a well known fact that people are drawn to those who are happy and positive individuals.
That's because people who like themselves, who really are comfortable in their own skin, make others feel comfortable in their presence.
We attract to us what we put out.
It is the Law of Attraction, the most powerful law in the Universe.
Consequently, whatever you want to attract into your life will come much more quickly and easily with the help of positive affirmations.
