How to FEEL Your Affirmations and Unleash Their True Power

By James Baty 

Affirmations are a key component of implementing the Law of Attraction correctly. They empower the mind to project a positive wave length. Positive projection encourages both action and reception. Sometimes, people use affirmations and still see or feel no change. Many times this is because the affirmations are not felt. Here are some techniques to help you feel your affirmations.
1.Understand the Power of Emotions
It is one thing to simply think something with some sort of reaction like, "Man, that sure would be nice to have some day." However, the universe will not respond to such a thought. Have you ever noticed that how you or another person feels can have a dramatic impact on your day, week, or even life? This is especially true when that person is of great importance to you, like a spouse, or someone you have a lot of exposure to, like a coworker. If you are around somebody who is feeling happy, you are more likely to feel happy. If you are around somebody who is feeling down, you will probably feel down.
This is because feelings resonate much stronger than thought. What I just said may be one of the most IMPORTANT aspects of the Law of Attraction. So, using deduction, if feeling is more powerful than thought, then one must feel their desires in order for them to be achieved.
2. Use Your Emotion to Fuel Action
In the end, the Law of Attraction is about action. You must actively think, do, and feel what you want. continuing to take action at each new progressive step to reach your goals. Here is a simple exercise. Think about your dream car, not science fiction dream car (of course twin ion engines would be nice), but a car that you want right now. First, just think of the car. You may have a picture in your head or maybe a vision of when that car passed you by on the road. Take note that you are probably feeling something very passive right now. Maybe your feelings are along the line of empathy, you like the car but know it is isn't practical, so you shrug it off. Perhaps you feel envious of those who have the car. Envy is often followed by feelings of negativity regarding your own self-worth and success.
This is what you have to do in your affirmations. You must create feelings of success, wealth, and love. Then, associate those specific feelings with specific affirmations. At the core of human existence lies experience. We pursue and avoid certain experiences based on the feelings they produce. You will be much more likely to take action and to resonate your true desires out to the universe if you truly feel your affirmations. The universe is waiting to give you what you want, all you have to do is truly figure out what that is and go after it; mind, body, and spirit.

Affirm the Will to Win

By Lance Winslow 

Back in my younger days, I was a track star and there were other athletes who were genetically superior, had better builds, and clearly they should have won every race. But they didn't, and there was a great equalizer; Will! That's right, the will to win.
Anyone who has ever competed at the highest levels of competition realizes that you have to commit, you have to endure, and you have to push your limits. You can will your body to perform not only at optimum, but beyond its physical limits. Eventually what you learn is there are no such things as limits, except those limits you set for yourself.
It's easy to be in a competition and become intimidated, and back off. It's easy to get psyched out, or feel the presence of another athlete who is ultra-determined to beat you. The question is how strong are you in your mind? How much strength of character can you muster, to face your competitor, look them in the eyes, and not flinch? Can you bring yourself to know in advance that you will win?
The answer is yes, but it depends upon you, no one else can do this for you, and I am sure even if you hypnotize yourself, and tell yourself you are going to win, you will not be able to beat someone who truly believes in themselves, their abilities, and has committed themselves in their mind. Sometimes, I believe that human sporting competition brings out the best of the species.
Not only the strongest, and most fit, but those who are strong in the mind. Indeed, you'll need to have both, that is to say you will have to be in excellent shape, and learn the skills required to compete at the upper levels in whatever sport you choose, but you still must possess to strong will, and strength of character if you are going to be victorious time and time again. You must affirm your destiny.
Now then, it's a lot easier to watch someone else compete then actually have to go through the process yourself. Most of the top athletes make it look so easy, when they've had to endure so much to get to that upper-level. Some of them have beaten their bodies into oblivion, and got up, time and time again, and persevered through the pain and agony of defeat along the way. Still, they affirmed to never give up.
Sometimes, I wish that we could see strength of character and will in others, yes sometimes you can feel it, sense it, but wouldn't it be nice if they had a certain aura or glow around them based on their level of will and intensity, showing the strength of their affirmations coming in to fruition. Of course, it takes one to know one, and if you develop that level of strength inside, you will easily recognize it and others. Indeed, I hope you will please consider all these philosophical thoughts on sports competition and think on it. I want you to win, affirm it, be that winner.

Law of Attraction - Not Sure You Can?

By Jenn Prothero 

Have you been trying to work with the law of attraction in your life, and it's just not working? Are you wondering what is wrong with your thinking that you can't do it? What is wrong with you, don't you deserve to be happy like they say? Do you even get to the point where you feel good one day, then down in the dumps others and you wonder if you are bi polar? If so, relax, you are not alone, and you are not bi polar.
There are many people working with the law of attraction and there are just as many trying to teach you how to do it, or saying they have just the right technique for you to be able to master it. Let me just say that the techniques are great, but in the end all you need is your focused intentions.
I am speaking from experience here, I have felt all of these feelings, and thought all of these thoughts. What I have found out, is that we are here having a human experience, and we like to complicate everything, we like to get caught up in our thoughts and all the drama in life. This is where we fail at the law of attraction. Myself included. This is what I have learned.
It is very important to take control of my thoughts as soon as I wake up, I want to start positive so I can attract more positive. I heard it said, and I'm not sure who said it but it is brilliant, stay positive until 10 am and the rest of the day will look after itself. It's true. Positive affirmations may sound silly, but they are very powerful in attracting good to you. I start every day off with an affirmation, I even take it one step further and add a vision to that affirmation. For example if I were trying to manifest money, I would say, I say yes to all the new opportunities that come my way today to generate income. I will then envision myself with money floating all around me, and just stay with that as long as I can. The trick is to bring all of these thoughts and visions into your heart and feel that energy.
The next step is to go about your day, staying in tune with what you want, and keeping your energy and vibrational level high. In other words, stay with the heart energy, do things from the heart, listen to the heart. When things start to show up that are not in alignment with what you want........in other words the exact opposite of what you want.......simply say thank you and don't give it any other energy. When we put thought into why did this show up, or I don't want that, what we are doing is giving it energy, anything we give energy to will grow. Meaning you will attract more of it. Perhaps it is showing up to let you recognize it and say no, I want this, specifically. The law of attraction is very specific in fact its exact. Look at what showed up and look at exactly what you asked for and exactly where your thoughts have been.
This is the frustrating part, this is where people give up, this is where people begin to think they just can't do it or just aren't deserving enough. One of the laws states that we are willing to sacrifice for what we want, that includes our thoughts. That includes constantly looking for "the good "to show up. That also includes giving up anything that blocks us from having what we want such as limiting beliefs or even physical things we have that we are holding onto. We need to release the old in order to make room for the new. So when the old keeps showing up, just say no, that's not what I want.
I have been trying to manifest a new car, which requires money. My old car was continually breaking down costing me money I wanted to be saving to get a new one. I was always asking how can I save money for a car, when I am always putting it out for repairs. Then I got a brain wave thought, I had to give up the old in order to make room for the new. The brakes went on the car last week, and without any resentment or anger I simply took it off the road, and said you are done. I became grateful for what the car had done for me over the years. I was grateful for learning this value able lesson. I was grateful that I was healthy enough to walk until the said new car shows up. I started to realize how lucky I was. I also was finally able to really start dreaming about the new car I wanted. Prior to this, it was a passing fancy, but now it's real, I can feel myself driving it, I can feel how comfortable and safe I feel in it. That is real manifesting thoughts.
What my problem was that I was too caught up in the past, with what I already had, that was making me unhappy. With that I could not focus my thoughts on what I wanted.
You see even if we think we are doing a great job with our thoughts and energy we always have work to do. In fact this is often the only work we have to do in order to receive what it is we have asked for. The journey is about preparing ourselves to receive, about learning what is blocking us and removing those blocks. That is work enough in itself.
Next time you see something show up that is opposite of what you want, don't get down, don't get negative and don't beat yourself up about it. Simply recognize it, and move on. Train your eye to look only for the good, and to be very grateful for what is in your life. Make a list each day of what your grateful for. There are so many positive things you can do to keep your energy high even when things are not working. Keep a list of things you can try, this way when you are having an off day, rather than staying in your head you can try something that works.
Here are a few ideas,
Light a candle, allow spirit in to help you.
Go for a walk in nature.
Listen to music
Dance, move your body, it shifts energy
Cry if you want to
Write out how you are feeling then throw it out.
Positive affirmations.
These all help to stay out of the mind and stop us from becoming attached to our thoughts. Meditation works wonders to move us back into the heart and out of the head.
The worst thing we can do is give up, beat ourselves up, or give thought to why things are not showing up. With persistence and vigilant watch over our thoughts and emotions, we will bring to us that which we want. It starts out small almost as if wanting us to recognize it and say yes, more please. See the small things, and celebrate them, be peacefully thankful for them and they will grow. We all have the same manifesting abilities, we all deserve to have our desires met, we are all capable of doing this, just keep doing it, it gets better, in fact make a game of it.

Super-Focus to Unlock the Power of the Mind for Wealth and Success

By Philicia Spain

As you rightly may know, you can never have riches in abundance or fullness of life unless you have a burning desire, and that you can actually possess those desires and dreams by the power of your mind. The quandary though is how to imprint your burning desire/s into your mind long enough so that your sub conscious mind is programmed to attract your dreams into your life. The secret is to learn
how to focus your attention for just a few minutes each day so that your habitual ways of thinking can be developed into new ways of thinking.
Firstly its imperative that you have a burning desire for wealth and abundance. I definitely had no burning desire for money. I naturally had occasional day dreaming episodes of what I would do if I won or inherited a massive fortune. I decided that if I wanted this to happen, I would have to find out how to access and keep this burning desire in my mind for a prolonged period.
So began my insatiable search for information, on how to get this done. How do you get your mind receptive especially when you have been pre- programmed since childhood, by education, media or peers? My biggest fear regarding riches and fortune was that I was being greedy and materialistic especially when there are millions starving.
Many spiritual teachers say that in trying to fulfill your physical wants and desires you are missing the source of happiness that is already inside you now. True but I also found after reading ample material on the subject, that you can have the best of both worlds. You can have incredible fun in this material world, co-creating and receiving your heart's desires plus maintaining a spiritual connection with your Source (or the name you prefer).
Do you believe that you are on this earth for a purpose? Do you have a life mission, a spiritual purpose and path? Could you become passionate about your life and excited about what you are creating?
Well I found the first step was to slow down and take a deep look at what was in my heart. Discovering what was truly blocking me and releasing them from my mind and body allowed new ways of thinking. This allowed new opportunities and possibilities into everyday life.
The second step was by knowing myself better. Thus I could break negative thoughts and behavior patterns.
So in this search on how attain and perpetually maintain my burning desire for riches and abundance, I realized there are many techniques, secrets and manifesting tools to unlock the power of your mind. These techniques include meditation, relaxation and visualization. Have you tried visualizing but get easily distracted? Are your limiting beliefs holding you back? Do you struggle to relax? Are you finding it hard to stay excited about your goal?
