I AM

I AM

Such a powerful phrase. Have you ever thought about how powerful that phrase actually is?

Say the words

I am happy.

Now say:

I am tired.

Now say:

I am filled with energy.

Did you feel it? The energy change in your body as you said those words? I could. I am is an incredibly powerful phrase that our brain taps into readily. So when we say "I am [input word here]" it has a huge affect on us.

Do you realize what that means? That just by saying the words I am... that we are changing our core energy.

I know what you are saying... "but what if I am dead broke and I say I am a millionaire? All I hear is laughter in my head and guilt and depression in my gut." Been there, done that.

There are three ways (that I know of) to get past that. And it depends on what you are trying to do and what you think will work for you.

#1 The 25x a day method. This I learned 16 years ago from Susie Orman. She was focused on money, but the fact is you can use this method for anything. I used it to start leaving my depression behind.

What you want to do is think of a statement in the present that describes what you want. So I might say I am a best-selling author. In this method, I would write it 25 times a day, say it aloud 25 times a day and look at myself in the mirror 25 times a day as I say it.

The hardest part for me when I started was looking at myself in the mirror while I said it. I just felt stupid.

In the past, I have found this method is good for someone who really doesn't believe in the whole process, but has the ability to stick to something once they start. When they see the results, they can go on to the second method.

#2  A few years ago, I accidentally found that putting the phrase "I choose to know" before the I am statement completely changed the way my brain and more importantly my body reacted to my daily affirmations. (You can read the article I wrote about it here.)

Strangely enough, it was automatic. The moment I used the phrase before the statement I was using at the time, and by the moment I mean RIGHT NOW. I said it and literally ten seconds later, an email came into my box with exactly what I asked for. Obviously that isn't going to happen with everything  but it shows how much that phrase can affect one's vibration.

With that phrase I released any resistance I had and the universe rushed in with what I wanted.

#3 This third method I just learned. The power in the statement is amazing and I suggest if you are used to the law of attraction or making your own reality that you use this phrase.

So, let's go back to the I am a best-selling author phrase. Even as I feel better now about my writing and know I get better at it all the time, there is still a little "yeah right" that creeps up from time to time. This little method not only quieted that voice. It made another one stand up and say "Damned right!"

What's the method? Add the following words to your I AM phrase. "and I am proving it to the world"

So, in my case: I am a best-selling author and am proving it to the world.

Powerful, isn't it?

How about other I am statements?

I am healthy.

I am healthy and am proving it to the world.

I am beautiful.

I am beautiful and am proving it to the world.

I am incredibly wealthy.

I am incredibly wealthy and am proving it to the world.

I am in a wonderful passionate relationship.

I am in a wonderful passionate relationship and am proving it to the world.

Go on... do it! Write your I AMs down. Choose one of the methods I described above and raise your vibration.

Make this the best year of your life so far!

I am in my own home and am proving it to the world!

I am a best-selling author and am proving it to the world!

I am a millionaire and am proving it to the world!
