This week’s focus is on the idea of being “ready.”
We often feel hesitant to step in new directions because we feel that we aren’t quite ready yet. Once we feel ready, we say, then we will take steps toward making our dreams a reality.
The truth is, that feeling will never come. We will never feel “ready,” even if we are, in reality, more than ready. As we move up the ladder, our expectations move with us. Even if we are ready, our minds will insist that we work just a little more before we put ourselves out there. Weeks turn to months, and months turn to years. One day, we wake up and realize that the time to act had always been now, and we sat on our hands.
These affirmations are designed to instill in us the reality that we are ready NOW, more than ever. We are the creators of our own destinies! Take a step forward today to make your dreams a reality.
I believe in you - and so should you!
Here is how to get the most out of these affirmations:
Print the affirmations (here) and tape them in a place (or several places) that you frequent every day. Your bathroom mirror, the front door, the fridge, and the sun visor in your car are a few good places. Listen to the accompanying track every day and repeat the words back to yourself. If you are able, listen to the track as you fall asleep. Your mind will continue to process the words.
Belief is the foundation.
These words are meant to become woven into the fabric of who you are. Perhaps even more importantly, these words are meant to transform the way you see yourself.
Say these words as if they were fact. Do not leave room for doubt and worry to fester in the background. Reassure yourself that these statements describe you as you truly are.
