Two years ago, I gave a special person a list containing thirty of my most important positive affirmations. I stuck it to her refrigerator before leaving her house one day, and when I came back, I noticed it was gone.
She said she threw it out, and then, she asked, “Who the hell do you think you are writing a list like that? You’re really conceited,” she said.
I was shocked because not only did she have no idea what a positive affirmation was, but she thought I was a terrible person for creating such a list. What’s funny is that here we are, it’s two years later, and she’s now making videos offering words of guidance and hope.
So, basically, she shit on me, and then like everyone else, proceeded to take my ideas, move forward, and pass them off as her own.
Fuck you for that.
Anyway, I wanted to share something important about positive affirmations because after all these years of using them, I just for the first time today, got it.
Life has a flow, and you should always go with the flow. You’re supposed to do your best and try your hardest, and if that’s not good enough to bring you success, prosperity, and good fortune in your current situation, then so be it.
There might be consequences that arise from your shortcomings. So be it. Every seemingly negative situation or setback you experience, can be dwelt upon, which would stifle your progress, or they could be looked at in a positive way to help promote the change you seek.
Keep moving forward, remain humble, and continue putting your best foot forward. At some point, things will change for the better, and the life you so passionately desire will be yours one day. There’s a flow to life, and as long as we remain in flow, we’ll put ourselves in the right places at the right times to receive our blessings.
Positive affirmations are designed to help you through that time. They’re not only reminders of how powerful and special we truly are, but they’re designed to keep out negative thinking while reprogramming your thought process and inner dialogue.
Don’t ever think your arrogant or conceited for making an I Am list.
It isn’t until you’re really down and suffering beat up from life’s tests and challenges, and it isn’t until you’ve tried and tried to move forward only to realize you’ve been running head-first into a brick wall that the time for understanding the true value of positive affirmations will finally be upon you.
It is at that time, that you’ll awaken to what the flow of life is all about, and you realize, no matter how bad things get, they’ll eventually get better.
