Why Your Affirmations May Not Be Working - and How They Can

[dgxtuu...@yahoo.com]

Have you have been using affirmations to get what you want, yet you
stand back and notice that nothing is happening? Have you given up on
your affirmations and feel it is a waste of time?
There are reasons why your affirmations may not be working for you.
Understanding the relationship between your affirmations and how they
make you feel is the key to making them work for you.
An affirmation is a statement spoken in the present tense to declare a
desire. Saying "I have a happy, slender body" is an example of a
positive affirmation.
Many teachings on affirmations insist on stating them as if you
already have what you desire, present tense. For example:
"I have tons of clients""I make lots of money""I have a great
relationship"
Remember that Law of Attraction is always responding to the vibrations
that we're sending. The words we use and the thoughts we think, cause
us to send out a vibration. The sentence "I have a happy, slender
body" will feel differently to different people. For someone who
considers themselves to be heavy or overweight, when they hear
themselves say the affirmation "I have a happy, slender body", in most
cases they immediately tell themselves the opposite. "No I don't! Look
how big I am! I'm the biggest I've ever been! It's not true! I don't
have a happy, slender body!" What's important here is the reminder
that Law of Attraction is always responding to the vibrations that are
being sent whether negative or positive. A thin person, for example,
could say "I have a happy, slender body", and it would feel good for
them, while a person who doesn't have a happy, slender body will feel
a negative vibration.
It's not what you think or say that matters, its how you FEEL about
what you think or say that counts.
Recommendations for Rewording Your Affirmations So They Feel Better.
The key to using affirmations is that they need to be true for you in
order to make you feel good. Some of you have been taught to always
state your affirmations in the present tense. I suggest you consider
yourself to be "in the process".
The "process" (the process of manifestation), actually starts when you
think about your desire, talk about your desire, write about it, or
when you give it any kind of attention, energy and focus. You ARE in
the process when you say "I'm in the process of.....", the sentence
becomes true, and if it's true for you, it feels good which is a
positive vibration. Some examples of how to use this statement are:
"I'm in the process of...."
I'm in the process of creating ideal family relationshipsI'm in the
process of becoming more abundantI'm in the process of attracting more
clients
New each statement is true for you and it feels good. When it feels
good, you are sending a positive vibration which the Law of Attraction
responds to accordingly.
