Week #01 - The Universe is Conspiring in Your Favor!

Good Afternoon,

Did you know the average person has something like 70,000 thoughts per day. The troubling part is, that about 95% of those thoughts are the same ones they had yesterday and the day before, and for most people, the majority of those thoughts aren't positive or supporting an image we'd need to hold of ourselves in order to achieve an Extra-Ordinary Life.

"We need new dreams tonight" ~ Bono

The truth is, most people have a very negative Self Dialog routine that begins the moment they wake up.....they talk to themselves in the shower or look at themselves in the mirror each morning and run a series of questions that steals their confidence and robs them of any real power in their day.

(saying things like - why do I have to do this? I don't feel good? Why do I have to get up so early? I don't wont to go to work, I look tired, fat, sad, bloated, etc. - prevents them from accessing their real emotional power - stay out of the trap:)

For an Extraordinary Life, we need to not only avoid this destructive habit, but also counter balance all the disempowering thoughts we encounter each day, with some new empowering ones.

One easy way to accomplish this is by replacing our usual mindless self dialog with some new self-directed empowering questions designed to access our more resourceful states: (here are few of my favorites)

"What am I Grateful for?"

"Who do I love and who loves me?"

"What do I want to accomplish today?"

"How can I be of service, who can I help today?"

"How can I make a difference in a positive way?"

Do you have a few questions you'd like to start asking each day, or a few you need to STOP?

How could your life improve right now from changing just your self dialog or adding a few simple questions to your day?

Another great way to tip the scale in your favor is through the use of Affirmations, Incantations, Mission Statements and Mantra's.

I've used these tools for years with rewarding results and as your coach I highly recommend you try incorporating them into your daily routine. (I've listed a few examples below and attached a list of Anthony Robbins inspired Affirmations)

Affirmations/Incantations

All I need is within me now!

Everyday in every way, it's getting better and better!

The Universe is conspiring in my favor!

I am seeking the Expansion of Happiness while playing in the field of all possibility!

The wealth of my creator circulates throughout my life and flows to me in Avalanches of Abundance!

Mission Statements

To live, To love, To learn, To Leave a Legacy ~ S. Covey

Everyday above ground is a good day ~ Serbian wisdom

To love, to laugh, to learn, to dance and sing and serve, to create, celebrate and appreciate every day of my life ~ MV

We'll get into more detail about Mantra's and Mission Statements in a future session. For now, just think...

How could creating your own Mission Statement or adding a few Incantations and Affirmations to your day dramatically increase your emotional resiliency and improve your overall daily mood?

Start repeating your favorite affirmation(s) at least 25 times per day (I do this in my head and out-loud while running/exercising;) and report back next week with your results.
