How Using Positive Affirmations Worked for Me
“Every time you state what you want or believe, you’re the first to hear it. It’s a message to both you and others about what you think is possible. Don’t put a ceiling on yourself.”
-Oprah Winfrey
A few days ago I intuitively began writing a list of positive affirmation statements on a piece of paper, cut each statement individually and left them on my counter top.
When I would go outside, I would take one positive affirmation that I have cut out individually. Each affirmation is embeded in a good sized piece of paper that can fit nicely in my pocket. This is a fun way to just remind myself of something positive that I’m either working towards or something that I am grateful for.
My Short Story at two Separate Stores on The Same Day.
On this particular day I picked the written affirmation “Abundance Flows To Me.”I put this written affirmation in my pocket and off I went.
While I was out one time I had two purchases to make at two different stores. I purchased one item at the local grocery store, and the gentleman at the counter allowed me to purchase the item taking out the tax.
His reply, “It’s fine keep the change.”
The second store I entered the very same day was with a lady at the counter gave me a discount on the items I purchased all half off priced. I asked her it there was a special deal they were having today at their store. She responded, “No, our store isn’t offering half off discounts today.” She continued “I just feel like being nice today.”
Pretty remarkable events happening on the same day right? Well, at least I thought so. 
Is It Just Plain Luck?
Some may call these two instances pure luck. But I really think it has to do with energy. Our words carry an energy that transmutes into the physical reality. The simple thing of putting that written affirmation in my pocket, may have played a part in me getting discounts on two separate stores on the very same day.
There are many valid logical reasons why these two instances may have happen as well, but I’d like to think otherwise. The simple idea process of writing down an affirmation puts your intent in place, ready to go. You won’t know exactly how that things begin to manifest, but they eventually will.
We Are Energy Beings
I believe that we are all energy beings. Like energy attracts like energy. The important thing I’d like to mention is that I’ve come to believe that our thoughts are magnets that attract either positive or negative experiences towards us. Yes, challenges come and obstacles come, but how we choose to deal with it with our thoughts and belief system is what can alter it or change that challenge into something positive. It is the energy that you choose to bring forth from your inner being that transmutes into manifestation in your physical world.
I urge you to try some of these positive affirmations out for yourself. Anyway you choose to do it, is really up to you and your own creativity. Have fun with this process. My friend Evelyn Lim from Abundance Tapestry has an amazingly creative way to go about creating this fun mini project for yourelf. She explains it here, simplly and easy to follow step by step.
I urge you guys to take action on this fun creative process and see for yourself the amazing little things in your life that begin to manifest for you in a positive way!

Creating Positive Results,
Affirmations help to mold your reality. It’s amazing and uncanny what happens when you repeat a phrase to yourself and believe in its manifestation.
I’ve had numerous instances of monetary good fortune by chanting an affirmation. I’ve also met some pretty cool business contacts by harmonizing with the idea of prosperity; courtesy of repeating an affirmation.
Repeat it until you believe it.

It’s good to emphasize that affirmations do work! A word is a powerful energy vehicle, when you join words with clear emotional intentions, you are knocking on heaven’s door and blessings find a way to your life.
Affirmations are so simple and poweful.
Helo Steve,
Nice to see you on here. I have a lot of success with affirmations as mentioned. I’m glad that you have had positive results as well. Have a blessed day.
Hi Ryan,
It’s so great to hear your wonderful manifestations that have come from using affirmations! Thank you for sharing your insights.
I am sure these two cases have to do with your positive energy. I have also done this kind of simple exercises, and I have seen that they work.
Your post is a good reminder that I have to continue taking action on this.
