The Power of Words - Did you know every word you speak is an affirmation?

Let me start by saying, WOW! By far the best part of WA is the community. This in fact is a true testament of just how much we "need" each other... I don't mean just here, but it's not to be taken lightly, and certainly not to be taken for granted. It's been an interesting week of reading postings, expectations, dreams, etc., and I can't tell you how inspirational it is for me. I have so many ideas in my head that I realized I need to get over this hung over feeling and start focusing... well maybe not completely over!

With that said, over and over I see how we contradict ourselves between our dreams and our choice of words. Did you know that every word you speak is an affirmation? Did you know that all our self talk is a stream of affirmations that is creating your life? You are thinking, saying, and doing things every moment that are creating your reality, whether you know it or not. The good news is, that it's what we have been taught, mostly in defense of whatever may come at us. The better news is, once you are aware, you can change it. (There is no good, bad and the ugly... that was someone else's movie, don't make it yours). Instead, choose good, great and greatest... or whatever positive direction you want to grow.

What exactly am I talking about... well, the list is long but just to give you an idea of some of the things I have come across... the words poor, broke, competition, angry, unsure, when I, bored, demanding, pain, punishment, or all the variations of these words that invoke these same feelings, are negative words, evoke negative feelings, and are generally less positive energy.

I get that if we weren't taught about choice of words and the right time, combination or purpose to use them beyond the daily dialogue, then how do we know; but now you do know, and that's all that matters. Now you're aware. Now you can reframe it. Put the past where it belongs and start from wherever you are. So when my back would ache, I would joke by saying "growing pains", now I just say I'm still growing. :-)

Yesterday I was watching, yes another Steve Harvey show; I just love how he makes sense of things in a funny way. Probably something I want to see in me, but this is for another posting another day.

So basically his guest was Tracy Strauss who writes a column about how to find love in all the wrong places... whaaaaaaaaaaatttttttt!!!!! That's correct... and guess what... if you write long enough about finding love in all the wrong places, guess what your new reality becomes... YOU WON'T FIND LOVE!!!

Now, this is not about love, this is about the power of words and how they create our reality... even and especially in the digital marketing world, because we are writers, whether you see yourself as a writer or not, your words have power.

I'm no different, and while I have made an agreement with one of my "selves"... to reframe every time I catch myself, I have no power with doing this for others. The problem is that until YOU change how you see yourself, you will not be your Best self, or really even yourself, and you will take longer to MANIFEST those dreams.

So, I want to invite you to become conscious when you use words like poor, broke, etc. Instead, try saying, my finances are growing with the level I'm growing, and since I'm growing and growing, it's just a matter of time before I can manifest my wealth. Make it a success story... I personally love RANTS of appreciation and RANTS of success... it gets my blood pumping and feels good.

If you are still here, let me invite you to listen to Louise Hay's book I Can Do It!
