3 Tips For Scripting The Life That You Want: Life Changing Affirmations
By: Omar Cook
A world full of distractions and unexpected life changes can make creating the life you want seem impossible…but it’s more than possible. Living the life that you desire is all about intention, speaking what you want to happen, and living accordingly.
Of course we hear about speaking things into existence, law of attraction, and affirmations everywhere, but how does it all work exactly? Truth is, this universe is a magical place, and words are spells, hence the word “SPELL-ing”. When you speak words, you are literally casting spells so it’s important for your words to have intention and to say exactly what you want and mean.
The power that we possess with our words is something that’s not truly taught in schools, but it’s something that everyone needs to understand. You can really become anything you desire in this life, if that’s what you believe. Here are 3 tips for scripting the life that you want using affirmations!
1. Journal Writing
Writing in a journal can be life changing for a number of reasons. You can clearly see your thoughts and understand where you are mentally. Also writing things down, whether goals or just thoughts makes them real.
Every morning, start with two pages in your journal. Write the date at the top of each page so you can keep track of your progress. On page 1 for the day, you will write exactly what you want to happen in your life as if you are already experiencing in present time. If you desire a certain career, write about how thankful you are to be experiencing your new job, the work environment, the salary, etc. Gratitude is a MAJOR factor in attracting things that you want into your life. Personally, I start my journal entry with “Thank you God for another day.” I am immediately expressing gratitude.
This is called script writing. You are literally writing out the script for your life by writing what you are thankful for in present tense, everyday. This is how you become the author of your life and reclaim your time. After a while, this will become second nature to you and speaking positively over life and expressing gratitude will literally become a part of you.
On the second page, devote this page to nothing but affirmations. I begin my affirmations with “I am thankful for…” I am is one of the most powerful statements that you can say in this life because you are literally telling yourself who you are. Write every affirmation in the present tense as if you are currently experiencing it. You have to literally claim things as yours for it to appear in your life. Applying this journal technique of script writing and affirmations will change your life drastically if you do this consistently.
2. Record Audio of Your Affirmations
Have you ever listened to a YouTube video of affirmations? That’s cool, that’s positive, but what if you could listen to your own voice speaking the exact affirmations that you wanted? This is exactly what you need to do.
Using the same affirmations that you wrote in your journal, maybe even add a few more and record yourself speaking your own affirmations. If you have a Mac book, you can use GarageBand to record, and you can download a free instrumental on YouTube using a YouTube video converter, then import the instrumental into GarageBand to play with your affirmations. Adding a nice instrumental to your own affirmations will make it more pleasing for you to listen to. You can export the track from GarageBand, and upload to YouTube as a private video that only you can listen to.
Listen to this recording every morning to start your day, before you turn on any other kind of music. You will literally program yourself with your affirmations. This is a positive way to start the day and it works wonders for your mindset. And anytime you feel the need for reassurance or to pick yourself up, you can turn on your own track and listen to yourself.
3. Text Yourself Affirmations
Create a list of affirmations in a text for yourself, maybe 10-15 affirmations. They could be the same affirmations you used in your journal and audio recording. At the top of the list, write the month and include a word to the describe the month, for example “Make It Happen March" or “Just Do It June”. Text yourself this list of affirmations 3x a day, morning, afternoon, and night.
Doing this every single day will constantly reaffirm to yourself exactly who you are and what you want to happen. This is a game changer.
No one on this earth has the power to change your life but you and it’s up to you to reprogram yourself from the social distractions and nonsense that is fed to you everyday. Creating the life you want literally begins with the way you speak about yourself and then living what you speak. Applying these 3 techniques to your daily routine will be a life changing experience. I hope you’re ready.
