THE POWERFUL LANGUAGE OF AFFIRMATION & VISUALIZATION

TALKING ABOUT ONE'S ASPIRATIONS AND THEN USING THE POWERFUL LANGUAGE OF AFFIRMATION & VISUALIZATION

STEPS: Asked the students to talk about their aspirations and also discussed the powerful language of affirmation and visualization.

1.Aspiration: I want to become the manager.
I aspire to be an IAS Officer.
I aspire to have a business of my own
I aspire to learn martial arts.
(Here instead of ASPIRE other verbs like PLAN, DESIRE, AIM, HOPE, LIKE, LOVE, WISH can also be used.)
2.I will buy a car: Affirmation
3.I will be buying a car: Visualization

When you say "I will buy a car" it's an Affirmation. It's a very strong declaration.

When you say "I will be buying a car" it's Visualization. It's like seeing that particular action happening live in your mind.

EC CREATIVITY

Creativity needs ideas that inspire. And inspiration comes from being in the right STATE. For eg. to get creative ideas in any field we need to be very much interested and excited about that field and also get highly involved. The second thing is having the right RESOURCES (or possession). Ideas come to those who are best prepared with all the resources at their command. The third requirement for getting creative ideas is THINKING in the right way. Only right thoughts lead to right ACTIONS.  The fourth requirement is seeing a situation from OUTSIDE, in a detached/objective way. Getting too much passionate or emotional with a situation blocks creative ideas. Creativity therefore needs a fearless and distanced approach to any situation AND also a purpose which is beyond our own needs or desires, name or fame. The bigger the purpose, the more will be the creative flow of energy into our MINDS !!

THE POWER OF BELIEF in EC

Which sentence given below is the most powerful in terms of belief?

If I get a job in an International company, I will go places.
If I started a business, I would earn a lot of money.
If I had got a job in government service I would have become very happy.

Now in these sentence types using the three IFs, the first sentence is spoken by a very confident person having a very strong belief, the second by a not very confident person having a weak belief and the third by somebody who is living in the past.
So by changing the IF pattern in a sentence, can we enhance our confidence and belief in a particular outcome?  The answer is clear from the above example.
