Brain Training For Success – Lesson 1.2 – Thinking Your Way To Success
(Jim Rohn)
Welcome to Lesson #2 of the Brain Training for Success course!
Success begins with your mindset, and to build the most effective mindset, it’s important to understand what success means to you.
So, now you’ve completed the process of designing your own definition of success, let’s move forward with training your mind to help you reach that success. We’ll start with affirmations.
Affirmations can be a powerful pool to keep your mind focused on success, and they can be used to keep your thoughts positive and increase your persistence.
Do you often envision yourself achieving great things, and then follow this up with a negative thought process?
Do you talk yourself out of your dreams before you even begin to pursue them?
If so, you need to change the way you think.
When you change your thought processes to success thinking you truly can change your life. Positive thoughts enable you to reach out and grasp the success you seek.
Affirmations And You
Wanting to succeed and being able to envision your success is a great place to start.
When you can do this, you’re giving yourself permission to change your life, attain your goals, and be a success.
There will be days when it’s more difficult to think in a positive and success affirming way, and it’s during these times you can turn to a useful tool called affirmations.
Affirmations have helped a lot of people turn their thinking into positive thinking, propelling them toward their goals in a new and exciting way. Affirmations for success can help you change the way you think about everything.
If you’re honest with yourself, you may find that much of your inner dialogue, how you feel about yourself, and even the way you carry yourself are negative.
This destructive thinking sets you up to fail or causes you to give up before you ever really get started.
As with anything new, creating a success mindset will take practice to give you the best results. The good news is, you can get all the practice you need with
the help of success affirmations.
What Are Affirmations?
Affirmations are positive statements that activate your mind to change your life, one thought at a time.
Actually, according to Louise Hay, “An affirmation is really anything you say or think.” (Emphasis added by me.)
The key take-away from this quote is that affirmations can be either positive or negative.
But we are only interested in positive affirmations here, because they enable you to accomplish the things you wish to achieve.
Affirmations work because each word we speak has power, the power to evoke emotions. They work because they allow you to program – or reprogram – your thought processes, replacing negative thoughts with positive ones.
For example, if you find that you’re telling yourself what you can’t do, you can replace these negative thoughts with an affirmation for success, such as, “I am capable of succeeding without feeling overwhelmed or unfulfilled.”
If that statement doesn’t quite fit you, there are many affirmations for success, such as “I am worthy of great success.”
All you need to do is want to feel this way, and then
