If Affirmations Don’t Work For You Then Try This Simple Trick

If you have learned about the law of attraction and manifestation you have undoubtedly heard about affirmations. At this point affirmations are very important. In fact it’s been said many times from lots of Law of Attraction teachers that the two most important words in the Universe to you are the words “I am”.

Because whenever you say I am something, it conveys a very loud message to the Universe about your belief structures, about who you are, what you can have, how things are going to work out for you and so the words that we choose to use after “I am” are extremely powerful. So the purpose of affirmations is to get you having positive meanings behind these “I am” statements.

But here’s the problem, a lot of times when people learn about affirmations they try to affirm things they simply don’t believe in. Perhaps you are struggling with money and you try to affirm something like “I am wealthy”, “I am a millionaire,” “I am a billionaire,” “I am super prosperous,” but you do not feel wealthy. You can’t really identify with that affirmation.

The problem that will occur here is that the Universe doesn’t really listen to exactly the words that you are saying but rather the meaning behind them. So when you are using an affirmation, you want to be conveying the meaning behind the root of what it is that you want.

All right so here’s the trick to turn affirmations around for you. So if you want to be able to say something like “I am prosperous.” You actually mean it. When you first start for new affirmations instead of using just a simple “I am” statement, try this instead, how am I abundant? how am I prosperous?

Simply using the “how am I” at first is a really awesome mind trick to make affirmations work for you. Because if you simply ask yourself that question “how am I abundant?” and think about the answer and get the answer to that question. The more that you practice that question the more of a match you become to answers that support that question.

So if you are new to abundance and prosperity, asking yourself a question like “how am I abundant?” You can start to realize, okay well I have got money coming in through my job. How am I abundant? oh I’ve got a roof over my head. How am I abundant? oh I’ve got a car to drive. And you keep piling on the reasons to reinforce that you truly are abundant.

Eventually you can let go of that training wheel of “how am I” and you will just truly believe that you are abundant and when you can say I am abundant and the answers just come to you naturally, well then you know that you’ve got an affirmation that’s really sticking with you. That’s helping you create positive results.
