3 Positive Affirmations to Success By Cal Drouin At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

I will be perfectly honest with you; I am the last guy I thought would ever be writing about positive thinking and affirmations.

I watched Stuart Smalley on Saturday Night Live for years, and couldn't help but to laugh at how ridiculous he was. Remember him "I'm good enough; I'm smart enough; and gosh darn it people like me". I won't take it to that extent, but there is definitely some merit to that hilarious character.

I grew up in a small redneck community in the backwoods of Canada, and never thought I could be where I am today until I was 22 years old and listened to a short book I had received for my birthday called "The Strangest Secret". The basic philosophy behind it was you become what you think about.

At first this was a little hard to wrap my head around, until I remembered for as long as I could I always thought I had more in me than what I was doing at the time. But as we all know sometimes life has a way of beating the crap out of us and we start to settle and give up on any dreams we had.

I spent the next 5 years really researching this philosophy and trying to improve myself so I could start to dream again, and finally "EUREKA". As I started becoming more successful in my career I began to get much more praise and recognition. People expected more of me and would verbalize that to me. Every time somebody would praise me it made me feel good and I strove to do better and better. That was powerful, but who did I spend the majority of my day with. Me!

What if I heard that kind of talk all day every day, and then what could I accomplish. From that my affirmations were born.

During my days now whenever I have free time I spend it repeating to myself three key phrases that have worked for me. Sometimes out loud, sometimes in the mirror, sometimes just to myself in my own head. It sounds crazy, but I challenge you to try it for 30 days and see the results.

1. Everyday in every way I am getting better and better.

2. Everyday in every way I am getting richer and richer.

3. Everyday in every way I attract the right people and ideas into my life.

It sounds silly, doesn't it? Well if you look at the statistics today 95% of the population in North America is unsuccessful. To me that is silly. If you want to start acomplishing things in your life, you've never done before, then you need to start doing some things differently. As silly as they might seem.

You will become what you think about most of the time, and if you can train your thoughts and actions to think about whom you want to be, I guarantee you will have more energy and accomplish more than you ever have before.

Try it for 30 days; if it doesn't work then you can call me crazy!
