Good morning all,

 

I have a question I would like to throw out for some response.  I will also post this on the ask section of the site.  I am beginning day 43 and I am not excited at all about the prospect of recording affirmations.  I have been saying the morning affirmations “I’m having a great day and “The day is mine.”  I have also done the affirmations associated with my physical goal (not as faithfully).  I have also used recorded affirmations in the past with not a lot of success.  The authors of various affirmation CDs and such boast all kinds of great outcomes which I have not experienced.  Anyway I am really struggling with feeling motivated to record and listen to myself reading affirmations. . . Ug.   For those of you who have done this part of the tools program what has your experience been???  I will likely do this, but I am feeling more reluctant about doing this than anything else I have done to this point.

Most popular answers

says: I know what you mean regarding recorded affirmations with someone else's voice telling you what to do. However, I've noticed when I've used my own voice the effect was completely different and much more powerful. I mentioned in one of my blogs that it feels as though the message reached far greater and deeper levels when I used my own voice and that's how it continues to feel.

What is your answer?

I joined TOOLS because:
 I was curious about what it offered. I was also looking for something that I can track personal goals with. I have found that tracking goals works better than just saying that I have one.

You are at a bar. You order this drink:

 Herbal tea or hot chocolate.
If a genie could grant you three wishes they would be (separate by commas):
 Enough money that I wouldn't have to work for money again in my life, safety for my loved ones, wisdom to prioritize my life in such a way that I spend it with those that I love and care about.
A sunset I remember:
 Any of the sunsets that I enjoyed in Tasmania, and in Australia.
