With the holidays over, you might be feeling burned out from all the excess?"too much socializing, family time, food, drink, and spending. Although enjoyable, the holidays can bring about a sense of letdown once they conclude, often leaving us feeling blue and lacking direction. So, how do we regain control and focus? Many turn to resolutions, like losing weight, being kinder, or sticking to a budget.
I've got a vital resolution to add to your list:
I WILL THINK MORE POSITIVELY TO ATTRACT WHAT I TRULY WANT.
This idea isn’t new, but it’s increasingly popular and can truly transform your life. It all solidified for me after watching The Secret, a film that, despite its Hollywood flair, emphasizes the powerful law of attraction: what we focus on becomes our reality.
In my self-help book, Dump That Chump, I explore this idea by helping women break free from toxic relationships and attract their ideal partner. Essentially, our beliefs about what we can achieve shape our experiences.
For example, if you believe all men are unkind, that’s who you’ll encounter. But if you believe there are kind, loving, and emotionally available partners out there, you’ll attract them. As Marianne Williamson suggests, we send out signals to potential partners about what we want, and the Universe responds accordingly.
This state is often referred to as being “in the flow”?"when everything feels seamless and connected, like a deep, fulfilling joy. It’s the feeling I have while writing this, knowing I'm sharing my gifts and purpose with the world.
So, how can you achieve more of these moments? By transforming your thinking. While formal education teaches many things, it often neglects how to think positively. Many of us suffer from what 12-step programs call “stinking thinking,” unconscious habits of self-sabotage that keep us unfulfilled.
Clients often say things like:
- "I know my partner treats me badly, but all guys are like that."
- "I want to be my own boss, but that's not realistic?"I have bills to pay."
- "I've always wanted to dance, but I'm too old and not good."
These thoughts shape our reality. In The Secret, it’s explained that our thoughts create our world, a truth echoed by philosophers for centuries. Yet, many of us keep ourselves from reaching our full potential out of fear of success, happiness, health, and love.
I can relate, having grown up in a culture that viewed suffering as virtuous. Conversations often centered on health woes or global issues, leading to early internalization of negativity and serious demeanor.
But I’ve realized that dwelling on negativity doesn’t help us or the world. It only increases hopelessness and apathy, hindering positive change.
To encourage positive transformation, remember this old saying: FAKE IT 'TIL YOU MAKE IT. Act as if you already have what you desire; your brain will believe it.
Here's some homework to start your year positively:
1. On an index card, write five positive affirmations as if they have already come true. For example, "I am fit and healthy. Every day, I grow stronger in body and mind."
2. Read these affirmations aloud every morning and evening to set the tone for your day and reinforce them as you sleep.
Try this for three months and witness the change!
Happy thinking!
