Affirmations to Attract Prosperity
Do you have
a hard time focusing on prosperity? Do
you find yourself struggling with negative thought habits that only seem to
attract more lack and difficulty into your life? Affirmations are one simple tool you can use
to turn it around.
Affirmations
work by delivering new messages to your subconscious mind. Most often, this involves replacing old,
limiting messages with new, empowering messages.
However,
the way you word your affirmations will usually determine how effective they
are.
If I asked
you to recite this affirmation: “I am a millionaire,” how effective do you
think it would be? Would you turn into
an overnight millionaire? Would money
start falling out of the sky to land in your lap? Probably not.
Why? Simply because you know the
statement isn’t true. If you try to feed
your subconscious mind a belief that you are a millionaire, it creates a
conflict with your current set of beliefs.
Your subconscious mind does not like conflict, and it doesn’t like
change – so nothing in your life changes either!
In order
for affirmations to work, you MUST word them in a way that your subconscious
mind won’t resist. In other words, make
them believable.
Compare the
above affirmation to one like this: “I
am becoming more prosperous every day.”
That one
feels better, doesn’t it? Your mind
doesn’t try to resist it because you can actually imagine it happening (even if
it hasn’t begun to happen yet).
Another
power-boost for affirmations is to word them in a way that places more
responsibility on you. For example,
instead of affirming, “I am becoming more prosperous every day,” you could say,
“I am open to the best opportunities to make money quickly and easily.” The wording of such an affirmation makes you
feel more in control of your circumstances.
Rather than waiting anxiously for money to fall out of the sky, you send
a message to your subconscious mind that you can control how much money you
have by being alert to great opportunities.
Affirmations
can vary in the length of time required to firmly “take root” in your
mind. For the most part, it depends on
the intensity of your opposing beliefs and the level of effort you put forth in
turning those beliefs around. If your
focus on lack is very strong, you’ll probably have to expend a fair amount of
energy and effort to train your mind to focus on prosperity.
However, it
is time and effort well spent because the more you focus on positive thoughts
and prosperous beliefs, the more you’ll find yourself attracting good things
into your life.
Here are a
few good affirmations to help get you started on the road to prosperity:
• I use my thoughts and emotions to
attract abundance effortlessly.
• I am becoming more prosperous and
successful every day.
• I know I have what it takes to be
as successful as I want to be.
• I am talented and resourceful.
• I create a better life one positive
thought at a time.
