How to Use Affirmations
To affirm means to declare what is already present. It is the same with creating and using affirmations to attract or to transform the things which we desire.
When you create an affirmation you are declaring to yourself and the universe that the desire is already created. As you continue to repeat these affirmations you are also holding your thoughts clearing with intense focus on the creation that you have made.
Affirmations serve many purposes when trying to manifest the things you want. Applying the law of attraction can be hard when you try diligently to maintain positive uplifting thoughts. It’s almost impossible to monitor your thoughts twenty four hours a day but when you create clear affirmations with details they become a great tool in controlling your thoughts and in turn influencing the law of attraction in your favor.
Here are three ways to use affirmations with your law of attraction practice to get great results.
1. The first step to using the affirmations is to become very clear about what you want. In order to become clear you would need to write out all the details that you would like to see and experience in the thing that you want. The clearer you are about your intentions the more power you give to your affirmations.
2. Write a clear positive affirmation in the first person stating your desire as if it is already complete. Never make statements such as, “ I wish I could be… or someday I can have or I don’t want to do…”
These three statements are the most ineffective statements when creating your affirmations. The affirmation must be created with power and faith in order to fully shift the law of attraction in your favor. You must absolutely omit any words that tie you to the thing which you do not want. If you want to stop thinking in a negative way, it is best to state, “ I now think and feel in the most positive way. I thoughts are happy and positive every moment of the day.”
3. Move into the affirmation with feeling. Feeling adds the power to your desires. Feelings generate an internal energy that allows your whole being to absorb your statement.
Many people find it a bit hard to really create success with their affirmations and that is as a result of stuck emotional energetic patterns that are difficult to change. There are many incredible techniques that can shift those affirmations quite deeply that they make the attraction process even easier and more effective without the mindless repetition.
How deeply are you willing to go to see the changes that you know are possible to have?
5 Things Preventing You from Attracting What You Want
Using the law of attraction to manifest what you desire can be either wonderfully easy, or painfully hard depending on your full awareness. It is very important to become aware of the things that you do want but it is just as necessary to be aware of the things which prevent you from getting what you want.
Here are 5 reasons you may not be successful in attracting what you want.
1.) Not being in alignment – You must be in alignment with what you do want. To be in alignment with your desires is not always easy. Let’s say that you have a desire to attract twenty thousand dollars but you are flat broke, most everything in your environment speaks poverty. You may be wishing and hoping but everything in your being feels like ten dollars rather than twenty thousand dollars. Your objective then should be to find a way to begin to feel like you are worth twenty thousand dollars. This is the first and most crucial step to activating the law of attraction.
2.) Lack of Focus –This is another hindrance to manifesting what you desire. In order to get the universe to move what you want into your physical reality you must begin to hold a clear and steady focus of what you want all times through out the day.
3.) Lack of power with intent – The one thing which generates power with your intention is emotion and feelings. In order for the law of attraction to work quickly with your desires you must first know with great certainly that you do want what you are asking for and you must begin to feel it very deeply. If there are slight feelings of doubt those doubts will work as barriers affecting the attraction process from going in your favor.
4.) Not knowing how reality works – The law of attraction is one of several laws that assist you in manifesting what you desire. There are other laws which cancel out your intention if you are not aware of them or how they work. Manifesting your desires requires that you learn all the necessary parts to get great success with attracting what you want.
5.) Surrounding yourself with people or things which contradict what you are creating – This is by far one of the most difficult parts to successfully applying the law of attraction. You see other people’s beliefs and doubts can greatly hamper your ability to manifest what you want. Those people could be family members, co-workers or friends. The universal law of attraction moves on vibration and other people’s vibration can have a great effect on your own personal vibration causing you to attract based on the vibration of the group you are sounded by.
As you can see there are many parts to the attraction process not all being fully understood by most people.
