DAY 17
How
to Generate Powerful
Self-Confidence
In order
to live your dreams, you must develop healthy self-confidence. You must
believe that you possess the inherent skills necessary to fulfill your
desires. You must realize that even if you think that you have never
accomplished anything truly worthy, you absolutely have the potential
to fulfill your dreams.
Remember
that you would not even have a particular desire if your unique personality
was not imbued with the latent talents to bring it to fruition. Know
that with a willingness to continually learn as a human being, and by
keeping your mind focussed on the type of life you desire, you will,
inevitably, manifest your dreams. This feeling of assuredness is the
basis of true, healthy self-confidence.
Again,
through properly focussing your mind you can develop any of the personality
traits you need in order to succeed, including self-confidence. The
key is to use your memories constructively rather than negatively.
Most peoples
self-confidence is shaken simply because they focus on past experiences
that went poorly, and they blame themselves for the negative experiences
of their lives. Instead, decide to focus on the events of your past
that went well, where you had success, and realize that you have just
as much power to succeed as any other person.
Everybody
has encountered failure in the past, and you are no different. What
is different is your ability to not let past failures stand in your
way of a fulfilling future. Simply focus on your positive energy, and
decide to use this energy to create positive experiences in your future.
Right
now you have decided to learn to expand your consciousness to increase
your capacity to attract prosperity. Having this desire for
abundant consciousness proves that it is a realistic goal for your
personality at this time. It is no accident that you are reading these
ideas at this moment. You are willing and open to learn, and the creative
energy of the universe is happily teaching you. Accept these lessons
with faith that you will absorb this knowledge and effortlessly express
it in physical reality. Feel completely confident that you have the
ability to live a prosperous life.
Take five
minutes right now and feel the truth of these words:
I AM
COMPLETELY CONFIDENT IN MY ABILITY TO CREATE THE LIFE THAT I TRULY DESIRE.
I AM COMPLETELY CONFIDENT IN MY ABILITY TO CREATE ABUNDANT PROSPERITY
IN MY LIFE.
TAKE
ACTION: Remind yourself of those areas in your life in which you
have been successful. Focus on those skills and personality traits that
have brought you successful outcomes in the past. Write down the three
most successful things you have done in your life. Feel the confidence
these events have brought into your life.
QUOTE
OF THE DAY: Banish worry by quietly and confidently affirming
the drawing power of divine love as the constantly active magnet that
attracts your unfailing supply. --Charles Fillmore
