The Secret to Creating Powerful Affirmations That Really Work

Using daily affirmations is a time-tested way to create meaningful and lasting changes in your life, but unless you have crafted your affirmations properly you might not be getting the results that you expected. Unless you know the secret behind creating powerful affirmations, you may be wasting your time and energy. Fortunately, you can avoid this pitfall by learning how to create affirmations that do work, affirmations that help you manifest the changes that you desire.

The problem begins because affirmations are often confused with things like goal lists, dream cards, vision boards, and other great methods of making positive statements about your goals and dreams. These are all great tools that you should include in your SELF growth toolbox, but affirmations are about much more than the things that you wish to attract into your life.

Much more!

To use affirmations effectively, you must understand that In order to manifest something, or to bring it into your life, you must first change yourself into the kind of person that would be able to own or experience whatever it is that you want. Until you become that kind of a person you will be unable to create lasting changes in your life.

This is the secret behind affirmations that is often overlooked by many people when they first learn about this wonderful tool. Affirmations are not about the things that you want, affirmations are about the kind of person that you want to become. Understanding this important difference can help you get the maximum benefit from your daily affirmation practice.

Take losing weight for example. In order to lose weight, you must 'become' a person who has lost weight. Ask yourself, what types of thoughts a person who has lost weight thinks. What types of beliefs do they hold?? What kinds of actions do they take? A person who has lost weight probably holds different thoughts and beliefs, and takes different actions when it comes to food and eating and weight, than someone who is struggling to get rid of those extra pounds.

Creating wealth works in the same way. In order to become wealthy, you must 'become' a person who has gained wealth. A wealthy person has different thoughts about money, debt, and investing than you might have if your are struggling with money right now. A wealthy person thinks about money differently. Wealthy people have developed certain straits and habits that you need to copy and develop in yourself. Ask yourself what those traits and habits are. Write them down.

Your answers to these questions will lead you to discover which of these traits and qualities that you need to develop in yourself. You can now use those traits and qualities as the basis of your daily affirmations.

Here is the bottom line, easy as pie, simple rule for creating affirmations: Concentrate on who you want to become, not on what you want.

Apply this simple secret to your affirmations and you will begin seeing a remarkable change in the results that you are getting.
