Listen to Your Inner Dialogue for Keys to Getting What You Want

I had a client of mine ask me why the Law of Attraction "doesn’t work for her." I found her question to be telling because I heard the ‘negative’ tone immediately. She didn’t even realize how negative her mind was. I spoke with her for our hour-long consultation asking her to tell me about her issues. Here are some examples of what she said:

- "I never remember to have a positive attitude!"
- "I panic when things go badly."
- "I don’t know how to do this."
- "I don’t know how to alter my thinking."
- "I try to be positive but then something happens and I lose it."

Do you hear what I hear? Everything is negative. And her negatives are very strong. Words and phrases like "never remember", "things don’t work out", "I don’t know" and "but" all affect our outcomes. Matthew 12:34 says, "…for out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks." What you say is a clear indication of what your true inner-beliefs are. Pay attention to your words. Because her words are so forecefully negative, that's exactly what she will continue to bring into her life.

If you find yourself using mainly negative words, make a concerted effort to change it. Remember, what you focus on, expands. Focus on the positive. Instead of the above thoughts, change your thinking to:

- "I am positive!"
- "Things always work out"
- "I will learn how to make this work."
- "I will focus on positive thinking."
- "I will be positive regardless of my surroundings."

Take a week and see how you can work more positive thoughts into your life. Once you start, you’ll start seeing more good things. What I’m suggesting is not jumping from one extreme to another; that would be impossible. I am talking about bringing gradual and intentional changes of thought into your life. Change your thoughts, change your life.
