We manifest our life based on our beliefs. Once we have a belief engraved in our mind, in order to change the belief it is necessary to replace it with another. If not, soon we will be thinking and doing the same.

1. To succeed in replacing one belief with another, use affirmations, which are ordered statements of Truth. Affirmations are a tool to help you change negative thought patterns.
2. We are always affirming, whether in a positive or negative way. When we punish ourselves for failing and call ourselves stupid, idiotic, etc., we are sending an order to the unconscious, which will then create situations in which we feel stupid, idiotic, etc.
3. Through the process of affirmations you will do this in a conscious way and with positive thoughts. Every time you catch yourself thinking negatively about yourself change it to a positive with an affirmation.

Here is a summary of the main characteristics of the affirmations:

• Affirmations are statements of truth.

• They can be done in a variety of ways, written, verbal or recorded.

• They are done in the present tense, as if it has already been achieved.

• You use your name.

• You use the first three persons of a conjugation, that is, I, you and he or she. You may have your negative thoughts because you came to that conclusion, and decided “I am….” Someone may have told you “you are…,” or, you may have heard someone say “she is….”

• Divide a piece of paper in two, on the left side you write the affirmation and on the right side you write any thoughts in opposition to the affirmation that come to mind.

• Do it daily, until no opposing thoughts arise, for at least 21 days.

Some positive statements:

• I, (your name), have perfect health.

• I, (your name), have the ability to restore health to every cell in my body.

• I, (your name), am a wonderful person who deserves love.

• I, (your name), have power over every aspect of my life.

• I, (your name), am open to receive all the abundance of the Universe.

• I, (your name), create the perfect life for me.

• Perfect relationships show up in my life constantly.

• I, (your name), love and appreciate myself constantly.

• I, (your name), open myself to receive happiness, prosperity, health and love.

• The more I love myself, the more I love others and the more love I receive.

Use the ones that vibrate with you the most. Or make your own. You will see how little by little your life begins to change.

In the previous blog you learned about your Personal Law and I taught you the first part of an exercise to find out what it is.

The second part of this exercise, once you have the most negative thought, is to identify how that thought has been repeating itself in your life.

How have you attracted situations that make you feel exactly how you think of yourself?

This exercise will help you identify the internal areas that you have to work on to achieve happiness.

• Take a piece of paper and divide it into four columns.

• In the first, make a list of those people.

• In the second write the behavior that bothers you.

• In the third write the emotion that is activated in you.

• In the last column write what person or situation in your childhood made you feel this way.

Your thoughts about yourself affect all your relationships. If that is what you unconsciously think of yourself, how can others love you? How can you be successful in your life and your relationships? Once you discover your “personal law” it is very important to change it to achieve your “eternal law.” If, for example, you discover that your “personal law” is “no one loves me”, change it to a positive affirmation like “everyone loves me.” Repeat the positive affirmation every time you start to feel your lie or personal law. This way your will, little by little, change one thought for another. In the next blog I will explain about affirmations.

In the previous blog I write about your life creed. When it comes to the beliefs you have about yourself that don’t make you happy, these beliefs are rooted in the most negative thought you have about yourself. It is the root of why you have adopted certain negative characteristics or personality, that keep you running in circles trying to find peace, love and prosperity. You can call it your “personal law.”

This law is based on the premise that your unconscious mind thinks it is always right. It always says “yes” to what you think and doesn’t analyze how the conscious mind does. This law can include ideas such as:

• People scare me.

• Men dominate me.

• I need others to give me what I need.

• I need security to survive.

• I have to fight to be happy.

• I am a sinner.

• I do not deserve.

• I’m not enough.

If you think you are not worth it, you will manifest situations and people in life that make you feel that you are not worth. If you think that you can’t, you will find yourself in multiple situations where you will feel that you can’t.

To change something in your life, you have to recognize what needs to be changed, want to change it and take the necessary steps to achieve it. That is why it is so important to do a frequent self-assessment to see where you are in life, what your beliefs and goals are, or where you want to go.

The following exercise is to learn how to find the most negative thought you have about yourself. I will give you the first part in this blog and the second in the next.

There are two ways you can do it, with another person, or by writing, if you don’t have someone to do it with.

• If you have someone, sit across from each other. Choose who is going to be A and who is going to be B. A begins by looking at B‘s eyes saying: the most negative thought that I have about myself is                   . B only answers: Thank you. A keeps repeating the same sentence, each time completing it with the first thing that comes to mind, until he has no more thoughts. B says thank you each time.

• Once the exercise is complete, close your eyes and try to feel with which of the negative thoughts you most identify.

• Then change places and do it the other way around, with B starting and A saying thank you.

 This exercise should be done with some regularity until you come to the thought that you really feel is the most negative.

• If you don’t have someone to do it with, or if you simply prefer to work alone, do the same thing but the thought is listed by writing it down on paper.

• Mentally repeat: the most negative thought I have about myself is: and you write what you think.

In both forms of the exercise it is important to know that if nothing comes to mind, you make it up. Usually, when you make something up, it is the unconscious speaking. Listen to it.

In the next blog, I will continue the next part of this exercise. But in the meantime, take this week to self-evaluate. Happy adventure of awakening.

Do you know that you have preconceived beliefs about yourself and life in general? You can call these your life creed. This creed is made up of the set of thoughts and ideas that you constantly repeat, which are mostly unconscious. Through your beliefs you interpret everything that happens to you in life. That is why the same event can be interpreted in a thousand ways, if there are a thousand people who experience it. The interesting thing is that once you have your creed, you think that’s how things should be.

I am going to give you an example of how the same experience is seen in a different way, with the story of three blind men who are standing in front of an elephant. One is on the trunk, another on one of the legs and the third on the side. They are told to describe what an elephant is. The three proceed to touch the part of the elephant facing them and then describe it like this:

• The one on the trunk says, the elephant is a long, thin and curved animal.

• The one on the leg says, no, the elephant is a short animal that looks like a column.

• The one on the side says, no, the elephant is a massive animal that looks like a wall.

The three begin to argue, trying to convince each other that their description is correct, without realizing that each was describing a piece of the elephant.  They each had a piece of reality.

How many times have you found yourself arguing, trying to prove that your way of seeing things is the correct one?

Once you open your mind and start to awaken, you can decide if your creed is bringing you happiness. If not, it is time to examine it and change whatever needs to be changed to achieve peace. That is achieved by making the decision to change and committing to doing whatever is needed.
