Want Abundance And Positivity In Your Life?

This Week's Simple Tip

Resolutions for the new year are a given for many people. But interestingly, almost 80% of people fail to keep their resolutions. You know why? We set too many with unrealistic goals, and try doing them all at once, hoping our emotions will keep us motivated to succeed. What if we focused on just one habit that creates the most change instead? Many highly successful people use the technique of "positive affirmations" to do this, leveraging the power of our subconscious mind to attract abundance and positivity. (Law of Attraction Theory) An affirmation is a statement of truth that you want to exist in your life that you either say to yourself or write repeatedly. For example:

- Resolution: I will lose 20 pounds - Affirmation: I choose food and drink that nourish and energize me. Because affirmations all use the present tense, your brain senses this is happening now and makes you more accountable to yourself.When your brain constantly hears or reads your words, it programs them like a computer, helping you choose better options and experiences that will lead you to the change you are trying to make.

This Week's Focus

This week, write down something you want to exist in your life. Instead of writing "I will" as you would with a resolution, substitute an action verb like "I am", "I choose", "I approach", etc. Click on the serenity sticky to print, cut and post on your bathroom mirror to remind you of this week's focus.
