The Importance of I am

One of the most important things to learn on our journey through life is the power and influence of our spoken word.

Often times, when we make a statement or a declaration, we're unconsciously stating what we're willing to call forth into our reality. And sometimes our spoken word is exactly the opposite of that which we REALLY dream and desire.

Therefore, beginning your affirmation with 'I AM' calls the conscience mind to embrace the God presence within. The repetition of an affirmation beginning with 'I AM' stengthens and supports clarity.

The 'I AM' element is a powerful one. It emphasises the value of simply 'being' which is why it's so necessary to be fully aware of the words you use to refer to yourself after the statement ...'I AM ... '

We each exist as an individual of value and worth in our own right, irrespective of any possessions and achievements. Accepting and reinforcing this concept is good for all of us. This at its most basic level is the meaning and importance of 'I AM'

There is wisdom in accepting what you are. It is difficult to be what you are not. Being what you are doesn't require any effort. When you become wise, you accept yourself the way you are, and the complete acceptance of yourself becomes the complete acceptance of everyone else.

Don Miguel Ruiz

If you keep telling your subconscious that you 'are', then in time you will 'be'.

'I AM' is the statement of who you are
It's a positive affirmation of a real state of being that exists in you.

You can create a full list of 'I AM' statements by taking a personal positive inventory of your attributes, strengths, talents, and competencies

It makes no difference whether they're the things you 'are' in this moment or the things you'd like to 'BE' in this moment, the subconscious mind has no definition between the real or the imagined ... so long as you can get to a place inside yourself where you 'FEEL' the thing you wish to be or desire.

Cool isn't it! Once you're in that place where you feel the imagined is real then you'll initiate the power of synchronicity.

You might like to include some of these 'I AM' statements in your list:

I AM competent; I AM energetic; I AM strong; I AM enthusiastic; I AM caring;
I AM intelligent; I AM relaxed; I AM beautiful; I AM joyful; I AM loving;
I AM a good person; I AM trusting; I AM generous; I AM courageous; I AM smart; I AM forgiving; I AM creative; I AM open; I AM talented; I AM sharing; I AM abundant; I AM wealthy; I AM lucky

Remember: you are who you think you are. The answer to happiness and fulfilment is usually found in achieving a simple acceptance of and joy of living a good life.

Enjoy 'being' and living a good life.

Love life and live it creatively and on purpose!

Positive Affirmations

Positive self-affirmations are a powerful tool each of us can use to create a happy, fulfilling life in whatever direction we choose. They can have a very powerful and encouraging affect on you and your inner being.

And why is that you might well ask? Two reasons standout.

Positive Affirmations Counter Your Inner Voice
They're healing, positive scripts you give to yourself to counter your negative inner voice, you know that nagging little chatterbox that runs a constant monologue on pretty well everything we do in our lives.

They can help you free yourself from anxiety and worry about other people’s opinions, attitudes, or feelings about you and help you feel good about yourself.

Positive Affirmations Resolve the Past
Positive self-affirmations will help you resolve negative feelings from the past so you can face the present with a less cluttered and more objective view. In doing this, you'll find you'll give yourself permission to grow, to change, to take risks, and to create a better life for yourself.

And what's more once you've let go of any negative emotional baggage your holding onto you'll be able to deal with your life in a realistic and positive manner.

And why would you want to go to all this effort?

Positive Affirmations Help You Create a Magical Life
When you visualize the way you REALLY want your life to look as opposed to what you don't want, you can work toward a more optimistic outlook and take responsibility for your own health and emotional stability.

You'll take a healthy self-oriented route in your life so that you can let go of the people and thoughts that drain your emotional resources and keep you from experiencing full personal health.

When you recognize that you have a right to be a healthy and happy human being, you'll have a fighting chance at achieving your full potential.


Positive Affirmations Puts Synchronicity into Action
In subduing the negative inner voice you'll begin allowing yourself to find your positive inner voice, the one that's looking out for the good things in life and that will help you become a fulfilled and happy individual.

You'll find yourself sorting for the good things in life and finding them more and more often as the Universe kicks into action to delvier what you're asking for.

Remember: Success prophecies, when visualized, imagined, or believed in, do come true. It’s time now, for you to believe that fully, you understand that don't you!
Love life and live it creatively and on purpose!

Pace and Lead Your Own Self-Talk

Last Friday morning at Grace Food & Wine we as Sisters in Sync in Melbourne were lucky to have Liliane Grace author of The Mastery Club come and share her story with us.

Her story for those of you who haven't been fortunate to have heard it is truly inspirational.

She took herself from a place in life she didn't like being and created a place where she is now doing what she loves, in a place she loves and is loved and supported by a husband whom she was considering leaving with 3 children who now get on really well.

How did she do this you might well ask?

One contributing factor is her commitment to honouring herself as a person. Of taking the time to find out what she needed to feel good about herself.

To do this she committed herself wholeheartedly to a series of affirmations.

What she found was a few things one of the most important being she had to be really careful about the affirmations she chose or else they became self-defeating ... she had to believe them!

The series of three affirmations she created which she credits with making enormous changes in her life are:

1. My words and thoughts affect my destiny
2. I am in charge of my words and thoughts
3. The faster I change my words and thoughts the faster I change my life

The reasons this worked for Liliane were also threefold, she truly believed that

1. What she thought about affected her outcomes
2. The only person who could be in charge of her words and thoughts was herself
3. Which for her meant that the quicker she changed her words and thoughts the faster her outcomes would change

Are you happy with where you're at in your life?

If not what are you thinking about and what words are you using to think about it with?

Let me know how you get on!

Love life and live it creatively,

It's What You Say to Yourself That Counts

You can probably relate to this,

I had no time to write affirmations.

• No matter how hard I “tried” I didn’t seem to be able to think positive thoughts for any great length of time … and …
• As soon as I thought a negative thought I instantly started beating myself up and telling myself how dreadful I was.
• I set goal after goal after goal and I always managed to focus on the ones I didn’t get.
• I was taking as much massive action as I knew how and nothing seemed to be changing.
• I was working REALLY hard and no matter how hard I worked there was always more to do.

I was frustrated, exhausted, dispirited and disillusioned and a virtual time bomb and what’s more I was a pain to all I loved and held dear.

I needed to make changes before I got changes I didn’t want!

So I went on a mission to change my life. Fortunately my passion is helping people and understanding why we behave the way we do. I’ve spent more years than I’m going to tell you studying behavior at University, through my teaching career, my outside studies and in my life.

But I was on a mission to improve myself so I attended many professional and personal development seminars and workshops and I read countless books. I always came away from everything I did feeling motivated and ready for action … and then guess what? … life kicked in! The children, my partner, the house, the shopping, work!

What I found out is that there are so many people out there who had it worse than I did and some of them looked like they had it more together than I did. The bottom line was that it certainly didn’t seem to be what happens to people that counts.

What seems to make the most difference is your attitude and what you say to yourself about what’s happened. Whether you see the glass as half full or half empty.

I was so frustrated because I knew if I could just create a better mindset then life would be so much easier. But to do that I had to have time to think about it and do stuff and I just didn’t have the time.

As a business owner, a parent and the partner of a person who worked long hours and traveled extensively I had no time to spare.

And then one day I drew the line in the sand. I decided enough is enough! Things had to change!

And it came to me; the dawn of realization. I had to change that voice inside my head. You know the one, the one that keeps up that incessant chatter of doubt and negativity. That voice that constantly has something dreadful and dismal to say about you and your luck and your life. Things like … you could never … it’s all right for them … you’ll never be able to … it wouldn’t happen to you … you’ll never keep this up … sound familiar?

So I started recording my affirmations with uplifting music behind them and playing them as I drove the children around and to appointments, as I did the housework and cooked the meals. And you know what this very simple means of subliminal messaging worked.

Within days I was exercising and loving it. I was eating better and feeling better about myself, my partner and my children. I was taking life and all its hiccups in my stride, so I was sleeping better and waking up feeling refreshed and ready for a new day.

And guess what? Because I was playing my recordings any time and anywhere, they impacted my whole family in the same way! As a result we were all enjoying life and each other much, much more.

I know that research into the effects of Subliminal Hypnosis is well documented and quite frankly from my personal experience Subliminal Hypnosis is the best.
