The
Power of Repeated
Words and Thoughts
The Power of Repeated Words and Thoughts
By Remez Sasson
Thinking is usually a mixture of words, sentences, mental images
and sensations. Thoughts are visitors, who visit the central station
of the mind. They come, stay a while and then disappear making space
for other thoughts. Some of these thoughts stay longer, gain power
and affect the life of the person thinking them.
It seems that most people let thoughts connected with worries, fears,
anger or unhappiness occupy their mind most of the time. They keep
engaging their mind with inner conversation about negative situations
and actions. This inner conversation eventually affects the subconscious
mind, making it accept and take seriously the thoughts and ideas
expressed in those inner conversations.
It is of vital importance to be careful of what goes into the subconscious
mind. Words and thoughts that are repeated often get stronger by
the repetitions, sink into the subconscious mind and affect the
behavior, actions and reactions of the person involved.
The subconscious mind regards the words and thoughts that get lodged
inside it as expressing and describing a real situation, and therefore
endeavors to align the words and thoughts with reality. It works
diligently to make these words and thoughts a reality in the life
of the person saying or thinking them.
This means that if you often tell yourself that it is difficult
or impossible to acquire money, the subconscious mind will accept
you words and put obstacles in your way. If you keep saying that
you are rich, it will find ways to bring you opportunities and push
you towards taking advantage of these opportunities.
The thoughts that you express through your words shape your life.
This is often done unconsciously, as few pay attention to their
thoughts and the words they use while thinking, and let outside
circumstances and situations determine what they think about. In
this case there is no freedom. Here the outside world affects the
inner world.
If you consciously choose the thoughts, phrases and words that you
repeat in your mind, your life will start to change. You will begin
creating new situations and circumstances. You will be using the
power of affirmations.
Affirmations are sentences that are repeated often during the day,
and which sink into the subconscious mind, thereby releasing its
enormous power to materialize the intention of the words and phrases
in the outside world. This does not mean that every word has the
power to make changes. The words have to be said with attention
and with feeling, in order to trigger the subconscious mind into
action.
Affirmations have to be phrased in positive words in order to be
effective. Consider the following two sentences:
1. I am not weak anymore.
2. I am strong and powerful.
Though both sentences seem to say the same thing in different words,
the first one is a negative sentence. It creates in the mind a mental
image of weakness. This is a wrong wording. The second sentence
awakens in the mind a mental image of strength.
It is not enough to say an affirmation a few times, and then expect
your life to change. More than this is necessary. It is important
to affirm with attention, as well as with strong desire, faith and
persistence. It is also important to choose the right affirmation
for any specific situation. You need to feel comfortable with it;
otherwise the affirmation may not work or may bring you something
that you do not want.
Affirmations can be used to strengthen
the process of creative visualization, and they can be used on their
own. They are of special importance for people who find it difficult
to visualize. In this case they are a substitution to creative visualization.
Instead of repeating negative and useless words and phrases in the
mind, you can choose positive words and phrases to help you build
the life you want. By choosing your thoughts and words you exercise
control over your life.
Here are a few affirmations:
Day by day I am becoming happier and more satisfied.
With every inhalation I am filling myself with happiness.
Love is filling my life now.
The power of the Cosmos is filling my life with love.
A lot of money is flowing now into my life.
The power of the Universal Mind is now filling my life with wealth.
The powerful and vital energy of the Cosmos is flowing and filling
my body and mind.
Healing energy is constantly filling every cell of my body.
I always stay calm and in control of myself, in every situation
and in all circumstances.
I am having a wonderful, happy and fascinating day.
