Why Affirmations don’t work & How to make them work for you

You’ve read “The Secret”, visualised your dreams and goals, affirmed your way to success and happiness. But you wonder why are you still not there?

“The secret lies in your energy.”

Every single thought you think and say in your head or out loud is an affirmation. And every thought has a specific energy.

If you say 10 times a day loudly with conviction “I AM HAPPY. I AM HAPPY. I AM HAPPY” But your mind keep on resisting the thought and says No, you’re not. Your subconscious believes that there are way too many problems in your life to be happy.

What will happen?

What do you think, your dominant energy is going to be in such situation?

The energy is of resistance. It’s natural that you will feel unhappy as you’re not connected at a deep level to the affirmation you’re doing with your conscious mind.

This is the first reason why affirmations don’t work!!

If you only keep on saying something, but do not believe in it and not feel the same way as you’re affirming, that might make you feel even worse.

So choose the words that you believe in and feel as well.

Second important reason is – Action!

If you keep on affirming I AM HAPPY but do not take any action to be happy, it’s not going to work.

Recognise the actions, things that make you happy whether it’s a walk, cultivating old hobbies, playing, reading or meeting friends.

You need to take immediate action and keep on taking actions in order to make your affirmations come true.

Taking Action is your way of listening and tuning into universal energy!!

Last but not the least,

Third reason is attachment with our goals!

If you’re too attached to your goals, you’ll be anxious that if you do not achieve or manifest what you want, you’re going to be unhappy.

Then you’re sending an opposing message and energy to the universe, the energy of lack (That I don’t have what I want).

This is quite a paradox I know.

You might be thinking that yes, I really don’t have that partner, that much money or other goals and dreams I have.

I get that.

But it’s not about the goal!!

Go beyond your goal -what will you experience or feel when you manifest your goal.

Most people say I’ll be happy / satisfied / content / proud of myself etc. whatever it is for you… You have to experience that right now!

Yes, this is the magic ingredient of your recipe.

If you can find any reason to be happy, satisfied and grateful in your life right now and take action from that state; you’re going to manifest what you’re affirming for!

Now you know all the magic steps to make your affirmations come true.

Go ahead and create miracles in your life!

Life Loves You!

Happy Affirming!
