It does not matter what you say. What you hold to be true in your mind (or heart if you prefer) will always win. |
I'm with outback here. It's not so much the words as how you feel. Verbal statements are representing the vibe you are trying to generate.
I'm just starting to learn about IM/LoA stuff but I have read/heard this, for example: If I try to make a statement like, "I know what I want" - the "yeah but"s show up really quickly, "yeah but what is it you want?" and what kind of vibe is that generating? What I picked up was the rephrasing to, "I am in the process of knowing what I want". And there are absolutely no "yeah but"s there! My subconscious can jive with that one and I get to send out the vibe that the universe will respond to.
It's like how affirmations fail a lot. "I am really slim & trim with six pack abs" could be pasted on my mirror but then the mirror shows me exactly otherwise (spare tire). There's a conflict. I don't know if I can say something that conflicts with were I am and feel like I own it without distrupting the feeling of having six pack abs. So the rephrase to, "I am in the process of becoming slim with six pack abs" allows the alignment feeling - I can belive that statement and feel that it's true enough to be excited.
