How Writing Affirmations Affect My Overall Writing
A rare asset that strongly holding on
The technique I’m about to describe has brought some of the fastest and most dramatic changes in my life on many different occasions. It is a combination of writing affirmations and a clearing process, neatly rolled into one.
I love it because it is so simple and easy to do, yet it gets down to a very deep level. Writing affirmations is a very dynamic technique because the written word has so much power over our minds.
We are both writing and reading them at the same time, so it's like a double hit of energy.
Take any affirmation you want to work with and write it 10 or 20 times in succession on a piece of paper. Use your name, and try writing it in the first, second, and third person.
For example: I, Mario, am a gifted worker and writer. Mario, you are a gifted worker and writer. Mario is a gifted worker and writer.
Don’t just write it by rote; really think about the meaning of the words as you are writing them. Notice whether you feel any resistance, doubts, or negative thoughts about what you are writing.
Whenever you do (even a slight one) turn the paper over, and on the back write out the negative thought, the reason why affirmation can’t be true, can’t work, or whatever.
For example: “I'm really not good enough” “I’m too old” “This isn’t going to work.” Then go back to writing the affirmation.
When you are finished, take a look at the back of the paper. If you have been honest, you will have a good look at the reason why you keep yourself from having what you want in particular case.
With this in mind, think of some affirmations you can do to help you counteract these negative fears or beliefs, and begin to write out these new affirmations.
Or you may want to stick with the original affirmation if it seems effective or modify it slightly to be more accurate. Keep working on writing the affirmation once or twice a day. Once you feel that you’ve really looked at your negative programming, discontinue writing it out, and just keep writing the affirmations.
My experience with this process is that whatever I have been affirming often manifests within a matter of a few days or even a few hours. And I have usually gotten many valuable insights into my own patterns this way.
