It’s all in the Details

If anyone has any questions on how affirmations should be done watch this great video of Jessica.

Well, I have realized that you really have to be specific with your affirmations and what you think about.  I mean, I knew this but I was reminded recently how true this is.

I was driving to one of my offices and it was really raining hard.  I was stuck in traffic and I was really starting to stress about being late.  I kept telling myself that I would have plenty of time, relax, and breathe.  I kept telling myself this phrase over and over again.  I was also listening to the audio recordings of the week.  Well, I finally made it to the office.  I was late but what happened is that my first three appointments did not show at all.  So, in essence, I did have plenty of time but not quite in the way that I meant it.

I was reminded that this happened to me a while ago as well.  I made myself an affirmation tape with the phrase “I am driving a new green Subaru Outback.”  I did eventually end out driving a new green Subaru Outback but it was not mine.  It was owned by the company that I work for.  At the time I thought that the universe has a sense of humor.  Now I know that it was because I was not specific and I did not give “subby” sufficient information and details.

I am so glad that I have coaches who are helping me with my DMP to get it just right.  Who knows where I would end up with vague language and not enough specifics.
