Declutter your spirit and embrace positivity! Part 3

PROGRESS, PROGRESS, PROGRESS!

Ok if you started this with me you should be progressing and moving foward in your progress in positive thinking, having a positive outlook, and changing your life for a better future. How are things going? Have you experienced a change in your attitude, personal life, business, your atmosphere? If not what is holding you back?

Let's take a moment to think about how we can demolish all of the henderances out of our lives so there is nothing holding us back from being able to move forward into a life full of joy, prosperity, and complete fulfillment. Since death and life is in the power of our tounge, meaning the words we speak over ourself, then we may need to change how we talk about our future. Instead of saying "I'm broke, I don't have the money, I'm not capable" demolish that way of talking and switch your words from "I don't, I can't, I'm not" to "I have, I can, I am!"

So with your list that you created of all the things you invision yourself having, being, and doing begin to speak about those things in present tense. Speak about those things as if you already have it and it already exists. Doing this will further affirm into your atmosphere that the things you have declared you will have will manifest.

Here are some words to begin to speak just as a sample list of affirmations:

I am successful

I have everything I want and need

I drive a (input the name of the car you invision yourself driving)

I am Joy

I am Peace

I am love and I am loved

I am respected by everyone and I respect others

I have and abundance of wealth

I have prosperity, I am prosperous, I am successful

I live an abundant and full life

Money comes easily and frequently to me

My business is successful (It's good to name your business on this one to be specific)

I am giving toward others

I have so much wealth and abundance that I am able to give without reservation or hesitation

I have all of the business connections I need

I am always in the right place at the right time meeting the right people that will help me grow my business, life, relationships.

These are just a few example affirmation phrases that you can speak over yourself daily to begin changing your outlook, life, and circumstance!

Live your best life today!

Declutter your spirit and embrace positivity! Part 2

Ok Now that you have written your positive, visionary, dream, goals list and detroyed the negative list take a moment to reflect on the things you already have in your life that currently bring joy to you. The things you should reflect on are things that are not on your list, this thought process is strictly related to what you already have that you are grateful for.

Gratitude is essential in the process of having a positive mindset about your vision, dreams, goals. Showing or having an attitude of gratitude allows you to have a balance in your mindset regarding reflecting upon what you have, but also allows you to "see" the tools you currently have to help your vision come to pass. For instance, begin to become grateful for things that you may not have even thought of as an option to be grateful for. Most of the time when people reflect on what they are grateful for it's usually things that are essentially priceless like life, your children, your husband/wife, pets, etc. However, also consider being grateful for other things as well like your home, transportation, internet access, a computer, a job, your business, financial resources, etc. Now I know you may be thinking, "but those things are tangible and monetary?," and I'll say yes they are, but sometimes we can be "ungrateful" for those things. Here's what I mean, because we already "have" those things we neglect to reflect on what life would be like if we didn't have a car, a home to live in, clothing, shoes, a computer, internet access, a job and we can easily take those things for granted and not be faithful over them. Just like the bible says be faithful over the little things (few things) and I will make you ruler over much, how do you expect to obtain more or be blessed with more if you are not grateful for or do not take care of what you have now?

So as you reflect on your vision/goal list that you already created, also take time to show gratitude for what you already have.

Bring more Joy into your life and the life of others....

Cast all of your cares upon Jesus for He cares!

Lately God has been dealing with me about putting my issues on the alter and leaving there for Him to deal with. Me, myself, and I (being the independent person that I am), have difficulty allowing God to take things and carry my burdens for me. I tend to want to solve and resolve my problems on my own, forgetting that Jesus Died on the cross for all of my issues and sins already. Right? So in essence I end up stressed out and worrying about things that I already have the victory over. Especially since God says in his word that worrying is a sin and to cast all of our (yours/my) cares on Him. So I decided that laying my issues on the alter and leaving them there for God to deal with. This is essential to my ability to live a peaceful and stress free life. Initially when I started doing this it seemed difficult and challenging since I am so "independent" and used to doing things on my own. I finally had to realize that God is someone I can truly trust with everything, because he already knows everything that is going on or has happened in my life. I had to come to the realization that He cares for me and is there for me so I can relax, relate, and release all that I am dealing with on Him. So, I am laying everything on the alter and trusting God to handle it all and make miracles happen in my life.

All I can say is leave it at the alter, all your issues, cares, problems, concerns, trials, and tribulation, give it all to God so He can work it out. Once you give it to Him, He can turn around and restore the peace that surpasses all understanding back into your life. With that peace will come joy, unspeakable. May God continue to bless you, prosper you, and keep you as you lay your cares on the alter. Cast all of your cares on Him for He cares!
