Statements - Choices

"One comes to believe whatever one repeats to oneself sufficiently often, whether the statement to be true or false. It comes to be dominating thoughts in one's mind."
Robert Collier

This is a reality which many realize by using Affirmations.

What do you want to think about today?

What statement can you "re-write" for yourself, so that a new truth can be in your life? Your thoughts and your statements are what your reality will be like in the future. So if it is your choice, why not choose gratitude, joy, love, laughter, fun, strength, self-confidence, determination?

Have a wonderful day!

Choose

"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we did not die; so let us all be thankful."
Buddha

If you look hard enough, there is plenty to be thankful for. Gratitude is a choice of attitude. It is not limited to Thanksgiving, that just passed us, or the Holiday Season.
You are in charge of what you are thinking about, you mind as well choose something that is beneficial to you.

Studies have been conducted on the health benefits of being thankful.

More so, as a part of being an active co-creator, you attract more, if you thank more. This has nothing to do with religion, or faith, or upbringing, only to do with choice. This choice is ours.

Make the best of it.

Stop feeling comfortable and get moving!

You know what you want, you have a really nice set of goals in front of you, a vision board on your wall and a new set of ideas in your head.

You asked.
The Universe is answering, and answering, and answering,
asking you to take actions,

and you have excuses, excuses, excuses.

You know the ones.
"I could write another report right now, but I really want to watch that game right now."
or
"I really like this guy, but I don't want to sound desperate."
or
"I really need that raise, but what if the boss says no?"

This fear, fear to fail, fear to become uncomfortable, fear to be embarressed has such a hold of you, that staying comfortable is more important then the goals you are trying to achieve.

The suggestion I make here sounds simple, but is effective:
Do it anyway, take the action, despite the fear. Reach and you expand.
Courage is not an action without fear, it is an action dispite the fear.

Do it, or come up with more excuses and stay where you are.
The choice is yours.
