For years I have heard and read about the magic of affirmations. And it seems so simple – just write down your affirmations on a card, read the card as often as possible, and watch your affirmations materialize.
I understood the purpose of writing the affirmations down and reading them – every time you read them they are supposed to remind you of your intentions for your life. But I always questioned whether I actually had to write them down. I mean, if I keep my intentions in my mind all the time anyway, what is the point of writing them down? So I never did.
And, as much as I hate to admit it, my results were not what I was truly looking for. Don’t get me wrong, I was getting some results, but just not at the level that I truly desired. One day, after hearing in an audio book for, like, a 100th time the importance of actually writing down your affirmations, I decided to give it a shot.
I bought a pack of cue cards and wrote down my intentions – I had 20 of them. Then every morning I took a new cue card and wrote down one of the intentions on it. I read the card as often as I remembered to. It turns out that I did not have my intentions in my mind as often as I previously thought.
An interesting shift occurred and I definitely noticed a difference within. I noticed that I was more energized and had a more positive outlook. I had some great ideas come to me (more on this later). It was also a lot easier to feel as if the results that I was after were already in my life. And while the results have not manifested yet, I know that they are on the way.
So if you are like me, wondering whether there is a point to actually writing your affirmations down…in the words of Nike, ‘Just Do It’! You should notice the difference in how you feel the very first day.
Until next time,
