Your Success Toolbox

There are many empowering ways to incorporate the principles of the law of attraction into your life. Here is one of my favorites. It addresses one of the major problems that you might find yourself struggling with when it comes to seeing results from your efforts.

That problem is FOCUS. One of the core principles underlying the law of attraction is that you create or become those things which you focus on the most. You probably understand this, but it can be hard to stay focused on your dreams when real life is happening all around you. You can make it easier by taking advantage of the powerful tool that I want to talk about today.

It’s called a Dream Card and it is a small, yet effective way to keep yourself focused on your dreams throughout your day.

Your Dream Card – Your dream card is simply an index card or piece of paper on which you have written your top three or four goals and dreams. You carry it in your pocket or purse and take it out and read it several times during the course of the day. That’s the important part… you have to actually take it out and read it.

Your dream card is similar to your affirmations, but differs from them in a very fundamental way. Affirmations tend to focus on traits and abilities that you seek to develop in yourself, while your dream card is the place to put the dreams and goals that you are seeking to manifest in your life.

Like affirmations, you must write your dream card in the present tense, as if you already possess whatever it is that you are trying to manifest in your life.

Your dream card is the place to put that new car you want, or that better job, or even that special relationship that you desire in your life. Remember, even though these are things that you ‘want’, you shouldn’t use the word ‘want’ at all on your dream card. You have to create positive statements that reflect yourself already in possession of your dream.

State your dreams boldly and positively. Combine several goals into one powerful statement that reflects the achievement of each of them.

Try something like, “I love driving my brand new, metallic gray, Lincoln Continental to my new position as Vice President of Marketing for one of the top firms in my state.” Change it around to include your specific dreams. Be sure to include at least three or four of your top dreams on your dream card.

Here is the most important part, the one aspect of the dream card that helps you actually manifest your desires. You have to carry your dream card with you at all times, and you have to pull it out and read it as often as you can. Every day. No exceptions. Every day. Even after you have memorized what is written on your card, you still need to physically pull it out of your pocket or purse and read it to yourself. Do this at least a dozen times a day.

Here is why dream cards work. Every time you read your dream card to yourself you are telling your subconscious mind what is important to you. Your subconscious mind can be your greatest ally in your growth, and can find connections and opportunities to achieve your dreams that your conscious mind might miss.

Dreams cards work by helping you focus and train your subconscious mind on those things that you want to bring into your life. The principles of the law of attraction state that you can only create in your life those things that you focus on the most. One of the main reasons that you struggle to achieve your dreams is that your are only focused on those dreams occasionally. You really spend more time focused on other things in your life.

If you are serious about creating change you should add this proven tool to your daily routine. When you do, you will dramatically increase your manifesting ability and begin to see amazing results in your life.

Today’s power affirmation is all about increasing abundance in your life. You want more abundance in your life, right? We all do. It’s only natural. Feeling abundant is a major part of feeling happy or peaceful, and happiness and peacefulness are two of the most sought after prizes in life. The key to unlocking your happiness or your inner peace is to learn to feel the abundance in your life.

How do you do that? How do you learn to ‘feel’ the abundance in your life?

By using power affirmations. Power affirmations can help you create the changes that you want to make within yourself.

By affirming and reaffirming your beliefs about abundance and about the inner qualities that you want to develop, you will see your life start to change.

Developing the qualities of an abundant person should be your first priority if you are serious about creating more abundance. Some of those qualities are:

• Gratitude – Abundant people are grateful for what they have now and for what they will have in the future. (I’ve written several posts about the things that I’m grateful for. What are you grateful for?)
• Open Mind – Abundant people are open to opportunity. They are willing to accept their desires when those desires appear from unexpected directions.
• Giving – Abundant people live right smack dab in the middle of the river of life and they allow abundance to flow through themselves rather than trying to contain it and hold it all in.
• Positive Thinker – Abundant people see the upside of every situation. They know that life is dualistic and that every negative event has a positive aspect to it.

Those are just a few of the qualities of an abundant mindset that you might want to work into your own power affirmation to help you create your ultimate life.

Here is today’s power affirmation:

I am abundant. I am grateful for all of the abundance in my life right now and for all the wonderful ways that my life is becoming more and more abundant every day. I am always open to receiving more into my life and I look for, and expect, my desires to manifest into my reality. I am abundant in thought, word, and deed. I choose to always focus on the positive side of any situation, and I look for ways to allow more abundance into my life. I am a giver. I give what I can freely and without  hesitation. I am abundant!

Use this power affirmation on a consistent basis and you will begin changing not just the way you look at abundance, but the very levels of abundance in your life will increase as well!
