Write Your Own Reality!

Reality is governed by your thoughts, and it may help your understanding if we describe reality as a loop.  The loop begins with the thought you think from minute to minute. These thoughts become beliefs about yourself and your capabilities. These beliefs either empower you to accomplish your dreams or they hold you back from accomplishment. Finally, reality is produced by your beliefs and this feeds more thoughts and the loop begins again.

Thus a person who thinks about poverty will come to believe that he is destined to live a life of poverty. This belief will lead him to behave and act as though he is destined to live a life of poverty. Reality, being nothing more than a sum total of beliefs, will be one of poverty. And the person living in this loop will look at his reality and continue thinking about how poor he is...

Reality can be changed simply by changing the loop. Instead of thinking about poverty, one could begin thinking about prosperity. This will lead to him believing in his abundance, and then to act abundantly and experience this new abundant reality.

We have already seen how spoken affirmations can be very useful in programming the mind and helping to change the thoughts (and thus the reality) of an individual. What we now want to introduce is the idea of “Writing Your Own Reality” by forming the habit of making written as well as spoken affirmations.

If you look back at your school days, you will no doubt recall that on occasion a mischievous pupil was “punished” by being told to write a few hundred lines. A boy who constantly played games in the classroom might have had to write, “I should be studious in class and focus on the task in hand” several hundred times.
 
Such “lines” were given to pupils in order to harness the power of written affirmations. By writing a line over and over again, the pupil would, effectively, be re-programming his mind and thus his behaviour would soon follow suit in a new, more desirable pattern.

As people who are travelling towards total empowerment, we can take this principle and use it to write our own realities. We can make any changes we want to our beliefs simply by giving ourselves some “lines” to write each day until our beliefs, and thus our lives, respond in the way we want them too.

For example, if you want to experience more self-confidence in your life, you could assign yourself the following line:

“I am confident and strong - nothing shakes my confidence.”

If you were to write that line one hundred times each morning before going about your daily business, after just a few days you would notice a great increase in your self-confidence. If you really want even faster results, you could simply double the number of lines you write.

Writing your own reality is amazingly powerful. It is even more powerful if you create the emotion of the lines as you write them. 

For example, if you are writing, “I am confident and strong - nothing shakes my confidence” then you should imagine how you will feel when you are confident and strong. Imagine yourself living life in a strong and confident manner. Imagine being so confident that nothing shakes you. Imagine being the master of your circumstances rather than having your circumstances master you.

The formula for writing your own reality is therefore as follows:

• Decide what affirmation you want to make real in your life.

• Decide how many lines you will write each day.

• Write this number of lines at the beginning of each day until your affirmation becomes a reality.

• Feel the emotion of your written affirmation as your write your lines.
 
This really is a magical formula which can bring astounding results in a matter of weeks - if not days! I recommend that if your writing ability is normal, you begin writing at least one hundred lines each day. 

You can make up your own written affirmations or choose from the selection I have provided below to get you started. Either way, you should begin today. Write your own reality!
